Skill extraction shouldn't cost same quality fragments and valor stones

[proud harness]

1. SUMMARY
   The cost of skill extraction discourages build testing and variety because it is soo expensive.

2. MAIN ISSUE
   If you have 2 green skills on an old accessory you want to transfer to a better one, you'd have to spend 8 green and 20 valour stones, that's insane! Not to mention that green books barely drop from Tomb and I don't think I've seen a green book drop from daggerbreak.

All these material add up to straight up discourage you from trying out new builds and see what you like. Don't get me started when PvP gets added, you would need a whole NEW SET of accessories because it's simply cheaper to do that.

3. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

I don't mind skill books costing valour stones, it gives the material and side quests purpose which is great BUT the cost of skill extraction is wayy too high and I believe to incentivize build variety, I would make skill extraction free so you only need 1 set of accessories but you can take and put what skills you need in the moment. It would be similar to first release BNS but since the new skills are a lot better (give the person who reworked skills a raise they're awesome) it would be an overall improvement.

acc skill slot book and stat is rng so i hope their give us free extaction

I'm good with the rng on skill slots, an extra layer of rng to incentives farming but if they make skill extraction free, it will make the skill system and everything surrounding it fit right perfectly.

bro u just need the valor stones XD

[proud harness]

Wrong. Skill extraction cost valour stones AND 4 of the same quality skill fragment e.g. green skill needs 4 green skill fragment + 10 valour stones for skill extraction

[errant temple]

Buddy, i have extracted many times its just the valor stones u choose XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[errant temple]

[proud harness]

I don't get what you're trying to say, you just proved my point by showing proof

[errant temple]

are u stupid u only need valor stones????????

[warm shoal]

It's one option or the other. Not both.

And rather than immediately going for insults, you could also point it out properly @errant temple as not everyone understands how the system works, as you didn't fully understand it either that it's two different options rather than just one.

[proud harness]

Omg I never realised you had a choice wtf? Regardless of this revelation I still believe skill extraction should be free period

Or atleast give use a training ground where we are free to choose skill tree and practice to see what would work best before deciding on a skill.

What about not socketing it on the accesspry but rather to the gear slot I.e. skill socketed to ring slot rather than the ring itself
