#2914, "Eye of Avarice"


          

As a thief that had just practiced parting block, and was hoping to get acrobatics, this skill was a huge blow to me. Because of the recalculation of thief points, I am unable to go as high as I had hoped in the thief tree and instead of getting acrobatics, I get the ability to see people's gold purse.
For those who had planned to get acrobatics, this is a big weakening to the city ties path. This monthly contest ends up screwing over at least two thieves, and possibly more. Is there anyway to refund recently chosen points in light of the new skill, or am I stuck with gold peek instead of acrobatics?

2) Suck it up. CF is an ever-changing world. For those who think it is a weakening to the city ties path obviously aren't going the full way on city ties and are trying to min/max the other paths. I don't feel sorry for you, however the bug in the calculation will probably fix you.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
