Re: what's the purpose of skill gains after reaching the cap?

that's what I though. fight like a normal warrior (without depending on animals at all times) and just use them as a bonus distracting/harming force. a bit of magery for recall and I'm set. alas, wouldn't I need GM taming for a hell hound? it needs 84 skill, so I'd need 100 in taming and 20 in lore ...

what's the purpose of skill gains after reaching the cap?

disclaimer: /me = noob I've reached the skill cap and am now herding for max stats, it should finish in about 10-20 minutes.
