Weapon Skills
I think the skillgain in attack weapons like axe, sword, staff.. etc.. I think they level to fast.
Im just standing and grinding, first zombies and now pirates, im level 18 and allready at 158 axe.
I would be max allready if you dident lower but i think you should lower more, after getting 50, it should lower another 15%, after 100 another 15%, after 150 another 15% and maybe 175 another 15%, this way u would not get max untill at high level, my guess about lvl 40 xD
Still think its fast :) Just my oppinion.
Sharpening stone
Each time i login and have used charges of my charpening stone, i guess its after an update, the sharpening stone who had lower dur then 50 will get full dur again. Not that i feel any pain about it, but you should look into it :)
