Exactly how quickly do legendary dwarves gain skill levels? I assigned my legendary miner to be an engraver and wasn't seeing any breathtaking skill increases, so meh. --[[User:Xonara|Xonara]] 04:52, 29 October 2008 (EDT)

My impression, without any experimentation, is that they don't gain levels faster than anyone else. However, they do tend to be Harder/Better/Faster/Stronger due to attribute increases from gaining experience and the page on [[Experience]] indicates that experience is achieved upon (assumedly successful) completion of a task, so if the attributes make them complete more quickly, or with a higher degree of success, they will indeed level faster, although I don't think it will be that marked in most cases. -[[User:Fuzzy|Fuzzy]] 08:53, 29 October 2008 (EDT)

I added record keeping to the skills that it's easy to become legendary in since it's even quicker than mining and engraving when set to 100% accuracy Moonman 15:04, 17 July 2008 (EDT)

It could also be added that screw pump gyms are a nice way to the respective skill, as mentioned in the article. I think its even faster than the siege skill.

Should we mention that legendary dwarves don't pay money once the economy sets in?
Might be important.

Blinking

I'm not sure how important this is, but I'll talk about it anyways. I set up a game with Adjust Profile so that all of my starting Dwarves were legendary. So la-de-da-da, they all blink 'in tune' at the start. After some time, they some of them started to blink out of tune with one another. So does this mean that the blinking subroutine is independently timed on each dwarf? Is there significant lag if one has a legendary dwarf vs a non-legendary? Or 5? Or 50? --Chrispy 08:21, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

Has anyone ever suggested removing the blinking? The blinking gets a bit harsh on the eyes, especially when you have tons of legendary dwarves. I'd just prefer a [L] tag somewhere in the person's name/skill list. --AlexFili 04:50, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
