[Suggestion] Skills should take longer to complete...

Level 1 skills should take ~10 minutes.
Level 2 skills should take ~30 minutes.
Level 3 skills should take ~4 hours.
Level 4 skills should take ~5 days.
Level 5 skills should take ~20 days.

I'm not sure how long it takes to learn every single skill, but when the most expensive skill only takes ~5 days to complete, I feel like I'm going to run out of skills to learn very soon.

When I played EVE Online, there were multiple high-level skills that took upwards of 30-45 days to complete, depending on your skillset (Better Learning V, etc).

Thoughts?

  • I'm under the impression that they're going to lengthen the times before launch.  Maybe they already did with the learning penalties.  BA3 is an 18-day skill for me.  The 100+ coming skills may have some whoppers.

  • Bashere: above a certain threshold, each additional skill you learn increases the length of time it will take to the next skill and this increase compounds. So, the skills that are around 5 days for you now might actually take 10 or 20 by the time you get around to learning them. 

    But, yes: we will be continuing to (re)balance skill learning times and we will be adding lots more skills too!
