We will now have 2 different sort of Incrementable Skill Points lets call them Soft Skill Points (SSP) and Hard Skill Points (HSP).
The same thing happens to your Stats´s Soft Stats´s (SSt) and Hard Stat´s (HSt).
LP´s are gained by Curios and FEP´s by Food like it is now.
If u spent ur LP´s for example in Carpentry and rise it to 10 u still will have 1 Carp HSP until u start to build stuff like chair´s cupboard´s... For every thing u craft u´r SSP will go to HSP (0,005Point per used branch, 0,025 per block, 0,05 per board).
Exploration raises by foraging a lot lets say 0,025 per foraged thing.
MM and UA will depend on the hits u make. SO first u have to punch chicken´s rabbit´s ant´s to gain enough UA to fight a fox....
and so on...
Regarding the Stats it will work a similar way if u gain 3 Dex points u will still have 10 Dex SSt until u craft or do something that needs ur DEX and by doing Dexy things u can make Hst´s out of ur SSt´s
Some examples:
Strenght: UA, smithing...
Agility: catching a rabbit, dragonfly...
Intelligence: write a message on a parchment, draw a map, prospecting...
Constitution: Mining, getting hurt by animal´s ..
Perception: Foraging, prospecting...
Charisma:be in a Party for a while... (there will be something better i think)
Dexterity: Pottery...
Psyche: crafting jewlry...
So why did i write this:
I came back to H&H afther a long break. I have played a while in W4 so i know the difference of the two LP systems.
The new system is not bad but after 2 weeks of playing i have:
60 farming
60 carpentry
60 cooking
80 expl
60 smith
20 sewing
40 cooking
90 survival
80 mm
50 ua
BUT on 4 ALT´s and i have nearly nothing farmed, cooked, just crafted a straw hat and a bearcape some furniture the only thing i really do is mining hunting and foraging.
I dont wanna Grind again but i also dont wanna put in my curios and log off again.
So a fine balance between the two systems would be great.
IM sure a lot of you especially the one who have 500+ in all skills would hate this and im sure all who just make their murder alts in 2 weeks would hate this too.
Perhaps this would be also a good Idea for Salem!!!
btw I sadly got no key

So excuse my english and enjoy the flame.
