Hello![edit]

Efficient Leveling[edit]

I only want to say this once, and given that you have had ample opportunity to re-evaluate the method you describe I don't hesitate now to say that you have no idea how the efficient leveling methods work. The "third" method you proscribe is simply nonsense, and there are 3 better methods of leveling that you neglect in favor of it, namely 543, 544, and 554. What you are telling players is that missing out on 4 attribute points is the same as not missing out on them, if you don't understand how that is complete and utter nonsense, then just stay away from efficient leveling.

you have overlooked one very important detail: i agree that "Efficient Leveling is getting 10 skill-ups under 3 governing attributes". this is +5/+5/+5 leveling. we are on the same sheet of music here. where you are diverging is that it costs a total of 30 skill-ups. you are not considering the total skill-up costs.
now +5/+5/+1 leveling is getting 10 skill-ups in 2 governing attributes, one of them major, and one of them minor, for a total of 20 skill-up points. so the cost for +5+5+1 leveling point is 20 skill-ups. that's +5+5+1=11 leveling points for 20 skill-up points. this is the second efficient leveling method.
i am proposing another way to get 11 leveling points for the same exact skill-up points: with +5+3+3, you get 11 leveling points for 10 skill up points in a major attribute, and 5 skill up points in 2 minor attributes, for a total of 20 skill-up points. 11 leveling points for 20 skill-up points. this is the same cost-benefit as +5+5+1.
your considerations all require more that 20 skill-up points, so we are not comparing the same cost-benefits. you have not specified the skill-up points required for your leveling points.

It doesn't matter a jot what number of skill levels you plan on per level, the point of efficient leveling is to reach your maximum level as quick as possible, or in other words, maximize your attributes. In fact you have to understand that 5+5+5 is exactly the same as 5+5+1 in this regard and that no other combination does the same thing. The only difference between the two is when you focus on leveling up your Luck attribute, it has absolutely nothing to do with how many skill levels you want to work on per level.
