I was also thinking about letting skills go up a little faster..
Because when u die on a knight with skilling 185. You loose pretty some % and it took me like 12 hours to gain 2%, thats a bit sick xD
So, a bit faster woulnd't hurt, it doesn't really add more dmg to melee because the variety of the hits is high anyway. Example: 1000 dmg, 10000 dmg, 10 dmg, etc...
