> . I've gotten lore to a very high level on several characters. Its not a spamming job you can get done in an evening, like alot of spells/skills; it is something you need to concentrate on every time you have spare mana lying around, throughout the life of your character. For my felar assassin, he got to 96 lore by about 37th level. My Formula? Every time I rest, or get above 30 mana, spam lore till I'm empty. Repeat a million times. Spend time cursing myself for playing a dull-witted race. IMHO, only bother working on lore if you are playing a very serious char you intend to put atleast a couple hundred hours into, otherwise you will be sorely disappointed. Lore does not become a kickass skill until 91 I believe. I guess it can be useful for id'ing potions in the 80's though, if you just want to work it up to that point.
For my Drow Warrior, He got to 100 lore by 36th level.
For my Duergar Warrior, he got to 93 lore by 33rd level.
For My Duergar AP, he got to 91 lore at 23rd, but that was a rare one. I'm betting the extra mana had something to do with it.
