One of the recent changes has been that Emblems can now be spent to accelerate skill training rates.
My question is whether we get the same amount of skill training speed boost from spending an emblem as we would by cashing in the equivalent number of points directly at the shrine. I'd like to 'store' my points in the form of emblems and then cash them in each time the accelerated skill training ceases, because that's easier than trekking to the shrine. But only if there's no substantial loss of training points in the conversion to emblems.
Has anybody done this experiment to know?
