Sneak Cap 300 -> 200
« on: September 20, 2015, 01:42:07 pm »
I suggest to cap sneak at 200 with effect of 300 for next season. Similar way as support skills was changed at release.
Reason is obvious, leveling a good sneak build requires way too much leveling compared to other builds, this game was never about grinding levels and i think that its very unfair for them. To use sneak properly character needs Silent Running perk so i wouldnt be afraid of people using sneak on normal characters. I know that point was to cap only support skills but First Aid and Doctor are  "secondary combat skills" too and they are also capped at 200 so i think it would make a sense to also cap sneak this way.

It's certainly hard not to support this or something like it.

Sneaking should be a specialisation, but perfect sneak builds shouldn't be level 120+

I also doubt that having it set at 200 will make tanks and other standard builds boost it.. But snipers might, even without silent running, it could still be very useful for obvious reasons.

I don't see any cons, only pros - less grind and being able to enjoy being sneaker.

And more use for sneaking, not only pro-sneak build. With this plan everyone could use it (still sneak builds would be far better).

Maybe even test run it for 250 max sneak. That's still saving 300 SP, or 150 if tagged, leaving sneak as a ~350 SP investment to max.

+1 You won't be able to use sneak to help you level up anyway, BG/SG/EW are so much more valuable but easier to level.

The planned change is to make cap @ 270%, with Ghost perk adding the other 30%.
