#### Post here if you've just learned Better Learning V!

It's a massive amount of patience (for Glitch, at least) but I more or less went through BL 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 all at once. I'm 8 hours away from learning 5. Post here if you've recently learned it / if you have learned it already! And props in advance for those that do!

- Learned it. Probably not worth the investment at this stage but I knew I'd be away from the game for a few days. Might as well focus on a big one and enjoy smaller-timed skills + quests once I can pay attention again.

- Learned it a couple weeks ago. I was heading out on vacation and figured it would be the perfect time to get it out of the way.

- I just finished it today. Yay! I started / stopped and learned some things in between so it didn't seem so bad. I also used some shrine points to learn fast, fast.

- I learned it a while ago, it definitely helps some but after a while, some skills are still massively long XD

- It doesn't look like there's anything longer, though.
  You have to wonder, in the time of 5/6 days, do you think that in that time you could've gotten every 20% that having BL5 discounts for you?

- Learned it yesterday! 2 longest taking skills are mining IV and better learning V

- Hobbes- That only is true if you don't consider that Stoot says there are lots more skills coming, especially for Group Hall making and House Constructing. :) So that 20% will be acting on a lot more skills than you think if you learn it now. :P And it takes a bit away from the 3% learning time bump for every new skill after twenty. BLV makes that number thirty seven. :)
  I'm a proud learnee of the skill. :P

- Me! Finished it a few days ago!
  I am mainly just glad to have achieved it and got it out of the way. Now it's no longer sitting on my skills page taunting me, and I can actually learn stuff.

- Finished it last week. Just decided to get it over and done with!

- I've got three days left on mine. I wasn't too concerned about it until I noticed that new skills were adding days to the time of that and some of the other long skills, so I shaved a load of time off the rest of my skills-in-progress and got aboard the Better Learning Train. It'll be nice when that journey ends.

- I learned bl 1 through 5 as the first skills. I have to admit that I use the academy now though to automate the learning, so I can learn 24/7

- I finished it about a week ago. I do not track the learning times that closely, but with new skills coming and about 30 left when I finished BLV, it seemed like a good investment to me. I got all of the basic skills before I tackled that massive learning time.

- Gee, i'm up to 73 skills learnt, still no BL5..
  Posted 14 months ago by Toastman | Permalink
- I don't remember when I learned it, but it was well worth it. I'm currently learning my 79th skill.

- BL5 and Mining 4 both down. Tackling Teleport 5 next. ._.

- Just got BL5 finished!
  Posted 14 months ago by Hobbes Meta | Permalink
- Congratulations Hobbes! Yes, it will make it well worth it as you progress through the skill trees. With BL5, you can learn 37 skills (including the 5 BL skills) with no penalities. Lots of peeps save shorter skills for their 38+ skills. Good luck and have fun!

- I did everything backwards, pretty much. I learned the first one, then a billion other skills, and now I'm finally on 3. Only getting it so I can get Piety to help with Rooks.

- BL 5 and Tele 5 done
  Posted 14 months ago by Row Boe | Permalink
- I baked BL5 into my head a week ago or so.
  It kind of feels like Eve all over again.
  Posted 14 months ago by Xial | Permalink
- BL5 will be the last skill I learn. I had already passed the threshold where the savings would be any real use to me. At least I will have it, whatever marginal benefits it brings me at that point, ready for the new skills.
  Posted 14 months ago by VorpalCheese | Permalink
- I've learned it, but not sure it really gave me a benefit; I do see skills left to learn increasing in time as I learn other skills before them. But, I have to assume the reduction in learning time has kicked in and the times would be even longer w/out BL V.

- BL V and Mining IV done waiting on tele now then tink

  Posted 14 months ago by littlec7821 | Permalink
- 2 days and 22 hours to go, and that's already with shrine speed ups. :(
  Posted 14 months ago by anonymoose | Permalink
- Learning AK7 right now, then moving onto Mining 4, then all the Teles, then the Tinkering LOL
  Posted 14 months ago by Hobbes Meta | Permalink
- Finally finished late last night. Whee!
  Posted 14 months ago by MaxieMo | Permalink
- Two and a half more hours! Then Mining III and IV, Teleport IV and V, then off to learn the last of a few garden-y ones (forget which) and the cooking. Will do the rest of tinkering and engineering after that since they're the ones I want least.
  Posted 14 months ago by Space Core | Permalink
- Er... learned it quite early.
  But then again, if I had known about Glitch Academy I would have probably skipped BL altogether.
  Posted 14 months ago by Ayzad | Permalink
- I got it! I did mining V first, then BLV now i'm on to teleportation V
  Posted 14 months ago by Feylin | Permalink
- Recently did it.
  Posted 14 months ago by Katee | Permalink
- I finished a while ago. . a week ago maybe? Took 8 days!
  Posted 14 months ago by le beebs | Permalink
- I learned it a while back, I'm on Teleportation 5 now. I've got mining 5 already, as well as AK 7 and MC 2. BL 5 is essential. :D
  Posted 14 months ago by Kaessa | Permalink
- I GOT IT!
  *goes off to party*
  Posted 14 months ago by Space Core | Permalink
- After a handful of basic animal and cooking skills, I did BL to V, then Mining to IV. It's nice that everything is a little faster now.
  Incidentally, I am surprised by the number of people claiming Mining V in this thread, since it doesn't exist.... ;)

- I just finished early today. I had a really busy week last week and was barely able to play so it was the perfect time to just sit back. I waited a while to get it - my 67th skill.
  Posted 14 months ago by Wombat of DOOM | Permalink
- Just finished it yesterday! It only took four days for me, which wasn't too bad really. Glad I learned it nice and early! :D
  Posted 14 months ago by Rory Pond | Permalink
- Got it about two days ago. My alt is learning it now (the only thing it is doing is learning).
  Posted 14 months ago by Mal'akh | Permalink
- Just finished it! W00T!
  Posted 14 months ago by Reznir | Permalink
- Learned it while I was out of town for a few days.
  Posted 14 months ago by Baka no Kami | Permalink
- I just checked, and I finally finished it three minutes ago (as of writing that sentence). :D Took a week, or near to it. You can imagine my reaction when I realized that every other skill I can currently learn has a projected time of one day or less! I had thought they would all take that long XD
  Posted 14 months ago by Kestin | Permalink
- Just finished it finally...felt like forever!
  Posted 13 months ago by Adelira | Permalink
- just finished it a couple days ago myself when i knew i was gonna be away from game for a bit, definitely enjoying the reduction on other skill times :)
