Skill Boost for Mages/Druids

[vale oar]

Currently, the skill boost for mages/druids does not work well. The main reason players use the boost is to increase Magic Level, but there’s a problem: whenever you attack or get attacked (especially from ranged mobs hitting your shield), the boost timer decreases because it also counts shielding training.

Issue:

Shielding training consumes the boost duration, even if players only want Magic Level, its pointless to get 50% on shield training for mages.

Suggestions:

Implement an option to choose the skill affected by the boost (e.g., Magic Level only).

Allow players to lock shielding training so the boost isn’t wasted when taking hits.

This would make the system fairer and more efficient, especially for mages/druids whose main progression comes from Magic Level.

It also isn't intended to last for people spamming to full mana and using 20k+ mana in 1 minute and losing 3min of the skill boost.
This is the dummy thread all over again. You are going to get a skill boost that is flat mana but doesn't count shielding, a nerf for those of us who are currently using it.

Some people complain about the dumbest shit your going to get something you don't like or worse then your sheilding shit. Activate the boost go hunt and take your gains and shut up

"correctly"
more like "cheesy"
yeah just regen 15k mana and make runes, repeat 20 times
it's a strat only for people who want to sit afk or manafluiding
if anything it should be that the boost works for XXXXX amount of mana points without time frame

I know how to use, thats why I only use skill boost when hunting in team or when at home doing runes. I could use a lot of more boosts if it uses almost 100% of the efficiency, like ML boost from vouchers. Thinking the current boots is working as "normal" for mage/druid is really stupid. WHo gives a fuck for shielding? lol

The name it is skill boost, not magic level boost like the vouchers.

U can use the skill boost to fishing aswell… or block… or whatever u want xD

And if u are just mana sitting and doing runes when your mana is full, the boost ll be more then 1h
