I've been playing for a few days but am still scratching my head about this one.
How does a free user go about getting more combat skills? Do I have to wait until I have 95 points to select a class trait tree or are there other ways to get more combat skills?
So far I only have those 4 beginners skills and that's not enough for me.
As soon as you get to level 6 (I believe, it may be lv7 as well), you can choose your specialization in your class trait trees. Doing this will automatically give you some extra skills to use, which may or may not be offensive skills, depending on the class and specialization you choose. Apart from that, you will get one point to spend in the trees for every odd level (so one point at level 7, one more at level 9, and so on), as well as points for some specific things you can do in the game (at early level, these will mostly come from deeds, you can find the class deeds by pressing shift+L, clicking the class/race/epic tab at the top of the panel, and then the first 'button' from the left at the bottom of the panel).
Apart from those general notions, if you can specify which class/what level you are, then people will without a doubt be able to help you further to check if you are missing something!
You were correct.Quote:

You say you have "been playing for a few days"... What lvl are you? Because you earn skills the same way everyone else does.Quote:

b) Once you have chosen a class spec, you generally get one or two skills. Though, some specs (such as the Blue branch of the Lore-master) only give passives.
c) As you invest Class trait points, you'll either earn new skills or modify existing ones.
d) *Every 5 points you invest in your chosen spec, you'll reach a tier in that branch. Some tiers grant abilities.
* This is the only time that getting abilities is affected by your account status.
These tiers are automatically unlocked for VIP. F2P and Premium have to pay 95 TP per tier.There is only a total of 65 Class trait points.Quote:

i'm actually a level 11 now. I'm just still really confused.
I'll look around a bit and see if I can figure this out.
You say you're lvl 11... What class are you?
Press J to open your Trait panel. This will allow you to choose a Class specialization. Then, invest the points you have (it should be 3).
Press K to open your Skill panel. When you get new skills they should be automatically added to your toolbars. However, if you accidentally deleted a skill from your toolbar, it can be retrieved by dragging and dropping from here.
The first time You can open and use trait panel is at level 5 or 6, when you can choose your Specialization, so it can be done in the intro instance already. It imediately gives you some listed goodies. At level 7 and every 2 levels afterwards you earn 1 point to put in the trait tree, so you can strenghten some more aspects of your character.
