So just an update because I haven't seen it listed anywhere. My T-Hunter lost his carto and lping skills on stones when my houses fell last decade.
Ya it sucked but I figured retraining would be kinda nostalgic so WTH.....
I hit 95yesterday and tried the Twisted Weald Disco trick....and got no gains at all. Real skill dropped to 65 picking boxes with 72.5 skill ( which is prime sweet zone for gains) I got nothing...zero,...ziltch,... for an hour.
I know hardly conclusive but after talking to so new friends in game they all had the same response....
" Dude, that $h!t don't work no more...you gotta get yourself some pinks!"
So I have to say, I was sad back in the day when they changed the anti macroing code and killed the need for full blown lockpick houses. But then when ML came out and The Twisted Way became known I figured...ok it is a compromise and for the greater good.
Now no need for lock pick houses ( a couple boxes at different levels will do) and no Twisted..... can anyone else please confirm this and when the change occurred? Oh and if I am right and I am pretty sure I am....then the mods and admins need to change our FAQ and the UO guide info.
