I tested it out last night. I got my dagger from 105 to 156 in about 1 hour 45 mins off of Coffer key mobs in the Crawler's Nest (as 72 Bard).
2 words... HOLY CRAP!
Had 4 people in the party so the mobs died pretty quicky. 3 of the 4 were skilling up on gimp'd weapon skills and they were getting mad skillups too.
Weapon Skillups After Update 0.0

Imagine if you had Martial Master too. :o
Hmmm... I can't remember what Super Kupower's are currently active on our server. I don't think that was one of the active ones. /shrug
I'd double check but I'm at work so I can't check atm. =(

Don't forget SE "improved the skill up rate of weapons for low and middle levels". Just depends on what they call "Middle Levels".

That's what this thread is about, lol. >.>;
I believe it's Artisan's Advantage, Boxes Bastok, and Boxes Outlands atm on Fairy.
I've finally been getting Enhancing Magic skillups outside of Besieged. I picked up about 2.5 levels just doing the new WoTG missions in Beaucedine [S], which means Martial Master wasn't a factor. I'm up to 171 now, and I'm guessing that the ceiling for the improved skillup rate is 175 or 200.

I got LOTS of +0.4 & 0.5 on those coffer key mobs till about 150 or so, then it seemed to taper of some and was mostly 0.2 & 0.3's after 150.
So it seems if you had enough +Acc you could join a 200+ skillup party with a really gimp'd weapon and still get mad skillups, given you can at least land hits. Madrigal + sushi FTW! =D

No way.. Are you being serious?
You have a whole thread about skill ups?
Wowowow, where have I been..?!
</sarcasm>
With the number of people I've spoken to that don't even know what was in the update, I wasn't going to assume that people somehow remembered we had increased skill ups during those levels, so I was pointing that out.. Especially considering the opening post didn't specify "Since we got that awesome skill up dealy"..

We have Martial Master on Gilgamesh at the moment so i'm hoping that along with the new update it will get my dagger skill raised substantially when I next play :)
This update will rock when I skill up all the random weapons that War can use but suck with, like Scythe.
I am skilling up on Gilgamesh atm and lemme tell ya, it freakin' rocks... In 6 hours as THF/DNC in The Boyahda Tree I have gotten 43 shield skillups and 21 parry skillups... plan to milk this for all it's worth before martial master disappears. I'm submitting a screenshot on ffxiah.com to show how many I got in a 15 minute period this morning. Those of you on Gilgamesh who need to skillup, man, it's a great week to do it!
i was soloing as 51drg @ west altepa. my polearm skill went from 130 to 150 w/martial master in about 1 hour.
Before the update I was getting mad skill ups; after I got to 171-176 in 1.5hrs. What is that!!
