There's no real con to not doing these quests btw, guys. So don't kill yourselves to rank all the skills in a certain Talent to get the 5 AP.
These events just save you the AP to ranking these skills to Rank F. In the case for Counter Punch and the Potion Study, they're 2 and 3, respectively, so technically you'd gain +5 AP net for that if you already are at the appropriate Hybrid titles. But for me I'd have to rank so many more skills just to get to Apprentice, so I'm gonna leave those out.

I think it's not so much that we want to rank them all to get all the ap and quests done, just that some of us (me for example) didn't get some of the quests, like the ones we can actually get right now without ranking anything else (like I'm missing the Spider Shot and Berserker one, but the only other one of the skills I could get with my current hybrid is Spider Shot)

Hmm, now that you mention it, I'm also missing two. Berserker and Spider Shot as well.

Sort of related, can anyone confirm with a screen shot that these hybrid skills get 2x training from being one of the related talents?
Really curious because even with 2x training spider shot takes 441 thin threads to get to rank 1 lol. Not terrible but annoying. 882 would be more annoying

It would appear that's intentional Sabina reworded it on the forums.
If you can manage to obtain one of the hidden talent skills(not including Berserk and Spider Shot) from April 24th to May 15th, you'll get your AP back!

Incidentally, it costs 2 AP to get rF Counter Punch, but the quest gives 5 AP as a reward for reaching rF.
Free rank and 3 AP. lulz

Same applies to the potion one, except it costs 3, so 2 free.

I don't do alchemy. So I'm going to have to spend ~50 AP getting enough to be apprentice so I can get my 5 free AP. :imdead:

Only missing the potion skill I guess I'll work on getting it since its useful.

Have you worked out what the most efficient way of getting apprentice is? If so, what is it
I want the skill but I'm not sure it's worth sinking that much ap into transmutation.

I'm not patient enough to figure those things out. I just guess.
I've been ranking golem and mana crystalization because they are the easiest to rank up and give a lot of points towards the talent rank.

So what of the hidden skills, cause most of them seem to suck.

Potion is great.
Doppel is alright.
Rest are mediocre at best.

With this update, the number of skills that Giants can learn is finally equal to the number of skills that Elves can learn, seeing as Elves cannot learn Berserk.
Yay!
