Legendary +1...

Do we have any proof - or even any hint - that these still exist?--Albedo 21:49, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Only in the sense that they *used to* exist. I left it on the table; if someone else is braver than I, they can remove it until such time as they are proved to exist and matter. 129.2.164.85
At least in adventure mode it is possible to have a higher level than 500. I had a wrestler and fighter skill of about [*****/50000], which would be a level of (50000/100(for the experience))-5(for starting experience) which is about level 495. I got this by wrestling a bronze titancolossus after I dropped him into a murky pool. I have still a pic of THAT but not of the experience. I haven't modded the game nor used cheats/hacks. I try to redo that (deleted the save) and make PICS! Not needed you can use the battle arena to do this. Just make a bronze colossus in the water and another creature on the ground above the water. Then attack/wrestle it. You easy get a very high wrestling skill since EVERY attack of wrestling increases wrestling and fighter about 5000-30000 points.

On this topic, I have evidence (if not proof) that Legendary +1 (etc.) exist. I have two miners, both legendary, but one of whom has been mining for a quite a bit longer, and mines appreciably faster (50% faster or so). So, there could be other factors at work here, but the obvious answer is Legendary+1. Rodya mirov

Whatever Dwarf Therapist uses for it seems to think so because it's still listed as legandary +x. Mason (T-C) 18:53, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Technically, skill beyond Legendary wouldn't have any effect on miners, but it would have an effect on anybody producing goods - a straight Legendary mason would occasionally produce *superior* goods, while Legendary+5 would be strictly ≡exceptional≡ and ☼masterwork☼ goods. Considering this behavior has been present ever since the 2D version, it's highly unlikely that it would have been removed now. --Quietust 19:24, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
It's not been removed - levels 16-20 still show in memory. The effects of levels 16-20 on produced item quality could have changed (but do not appear to based on anecdotal tests of legendary engravers). Bpuk 22:59, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
I second this, tho for a different reason - I've had my broker switch to "administrator" type from "miner" (he is legendary at both, and had just bought about 11k of goods). Give him a pick and set him to mine, soon enough he's back to "miner" type. Despite being legendary in both a few years back. - Nimblewright (forgot to sign in)

Experience amounts

The experience amounts listed in this table are wrong. They are not 1..2..3.. etc. They are the same as the 40d table. Garanis 02:38, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Atrophy of skills

I started a game with a proficient farmer but never planted anything. I can verify that after 5 game years, my proficient farmer "rusted" to be skilled. So, I assume he lost experience like Toady noted would be included in this release. I don't know when exactly it happened, but on those scales it doesn't really bear mentioning. If you had a legendary it would never really come into play. I don't know if it even bears mentioning on the page. Anyone? --Kwieland 21:48, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
