A friend of mine actually plays a character that 'studies' all combat and gathering forms for his research. Granted they also play the character as being fairly weak in most of these classes. IC their main class is a mage but more of a researcher then someone who willingly goes out to seek use of their magic skills.
My personal thought on this in and ooc is that you don't have to reflect all of your maxed skills ic. I know I don't. I'm missing three classes to get to 50 still and even once I get them there I will likely never mention them IC.
IC Lorraine is a Mrd. Chances are she'll never progress to being a War. Not something she has her heart set on or has the talent for. Her fighting skills are normally only used if she can't avoid a fight or if someone is in need of aid and she can lend her skills without the pair of them getting killed. I mention in her back story she knows basic lancer skills and I sometimes bring them into play if I rp a fight out. Altering how she would use her axe instead of going off of just the skills at hand. But even with training for years with her weapon of choice she isn't what I would say overly skilled or a master of the weapon.Â
Ic she more or less stays to smithing ( I lump the two together because they are similar). She won't ic go gather the materials. Sure Ooc I do in almost all of my free time but ic I state there is a supplier due to the amount of time and dedication she puts into her work. Being a smithy is something she's trained as nearly all of her life and she can still improve.Â
Not trying to tell anyone else how to think or handle things but this is just my thoughts/feedback on the topic.
