You can not level up forever to get enough points for every skill in the game, the max points you will ever achieve is 19 (unless they change it in the future).

For the most part ...at present have mastered 10 skills and to get the 11 th would require about 4 million XP the way it's worked so far... With 64 points needed total Seems like an impossible hill to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Period There are 26 skills total, but there are only 19 skill POINTS, meaning you physically cannot get all 26 skills. You can get, at most, 1 tier 1, 1 tier 2, 1 tier 3, 2 tier 4s and a single tier 5 if you are so inclined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're not supposed to pick them all, and you'll actually only ever be able to get two skills per level if you hit level 5 and have at least a 16 point captain. Some ships are better with two or three level 4 skills and no level 5 skills at all, some need all 5 levels to be true terrors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #16 Posted February 19, 2016 I've been grinding my Nagato class to such a point, but it will be quite a while until I reach the 19th point, nevermind the impossible 20th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3,999 [V_KNG] Herr_Reitz Beta Testers 13,205 posts Report post #17 Posted February 19, 2016 Gosh... consider it this way... You can NOT have every skill. You can do it as you have and that's that, no more. Or you could have done it more like pick n pack... 1 from level 1 = 1 point 1 from level 2 = 2 point 1 from level 3 = 3 point 1 from level 4 = 4 point 1 from level 5 = 5 point Doing that you would use 1+2+3+4+5 or 15 points. You would have 3 points remaining. Does that help? Not all skills are good for all ships/captains either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

972 [-K--] Killjoy1941 Members 3,075 posts 6,658 battles Report post #19 Posted February 19, 2016 Might I also suggest this for Murmansk? Level 1: BoS (3rd across, top row) Level 2: EM (1st across, 2nd row) for gun traverse, or LS (6th across, 2nd row) if you lose engines a lot. Level 3: HA ( 3rd across, 3rd row) Level 4: DE (1st across, 4th row) Level 5: CE (4th across, 5th row) That's a 15 point build for Murmy, pretty standard for a tier 5 cruiser, and by then you'll probably know what you want to take for another 1st/2nd level, or 3rd level skill to fill out the 18.

It seems you may not notice, you do not need to master all skills in one row to progress, you only need to master ONE skill on that row, to access the next row. If you are not certain, you may try it on a new ship and captain. Hope that helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not all skills are good for all ships/captains either. indeed it does... got it ,this place needs a manual... unfortunately the latest patch effectively Neutered the Murmansk in my opinion for long range encounters witht the big boys who shoot further.. as they say if your going to play in the same sandbox as the big boys tier Vl-Vll-Vlll in radom and they kick sand in your face it would be nice to kick a little sand back, so me paying any more money here to redistribute is not going to happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3,999 [V_KNG] Herr_Reitz Beta Testers 13,205 posts Report post #22 Posted February 19, 2016 What Takamachi says is absolutely correct... sadly it is not always clear... I know I messed up some of my captains early on so this free redistribution was appreciated. Unfortunately, if you want to reassign your captain's skills as Kiljoy... recommends, you'll have to spend 450 dubloons... you have only 180 so it wont be possible until you obtain more dubloons.

0 notRommel_notPatton_ Members 5 posts 2,187 battles Report post #25 Posted February 19, 2016 Okay...say I have enough points to get Level 1 "Expert Rear Gunner". Done. I have spent one point. At Level 2 there is a gap with no skill to achieve. I still have seven points to use. So say I want to use my unspent points on Level 3 "Dogfighting Expert". "Dogfighting Expert" is not highlighted when I mouse over it thus I cannot spend three points to achieve it. There should not be a pre-requesite to get "Dogfighting Expert" other than spending one point for "Expert Rear Gunner" which I have done. Anytime there is a gap between Levels, I cannot jump it, even if I have achieved the previous level and have the points to get the next Level. When I mouse over "Dogfighting Expert", it says "you should first master a skill from the preceding level", which is Level 1 "Expert Rear Gunner". This problem only happened after the last update for redistributing Captain skills. ?????????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
