I believe its still possible to adjust training in Novus so there won't be guys just logging in to train. So my Proposal.

Change Novus skill rate to 3x. Instead of giving people 60h for easy/long, 66h for medium/long, 72h for hard/long. Make it
20h for easy long/ 22h for medium long / 24h for hard/long.

Exhaust could be the same, but exhaust would be only for training tasks, not for actual training. So those who hunt or even train on monsters would still be able to gain skills on 3x rate.

Result:

*These 1h per week players wont be able to keep up with actual active players. They would still gain what they used to gain because my proposal would multiply the time 3x.
*Manual training on ghouls or dark monks or other players will come back to life - more ppl online who are willing to risk being killed.
*Power gaming for warriors/rangers will make more sense.

P.s. I am that guy who had few high skill characters while spending no time. So my proposal is kinda against me. But i think it's not fair that I have high skills.

Bumping to see what people/staff thinks about it.

just let us advance everytime we get some EXP so ppl can't afk train. Its shitty to have a 1% to advance and have to wait 60 hours... kinda doesnt make sense. Reward ppl hunting instead of just loggin in and finishing task.
