FIXSKILLs is coming! 05/18/2015 10:14 PM CDT
It's almost that time of the year again, folks!

The annual FIXSKILLs will be available for paid accounts on 5/20/2015 at approximately 5 AM Eastern time. This gives a window for the evening of 5/19 (and into the early morning of 5/20) to use your existing FIXSKILLs, as they do not stack.

If this is your first time using FIXSKILL or if you just want a refresher, the following information is copied from FIXSKILL HELP which you can access in-game:

Step 1: Type GOALS in the command prompt to open the Skill Manager (If you are unable to use the Skill Manager, CHECK IN to the local inn and complete this process via the Character Manager).

Step 2: Adjust your skill ranks in the Skill Manager as you see fit. Click the APPLY button and go back to the game screen.

Step 3: Once you have determined that your skills are set up exactly how you want them, type FIXSKILLS in the command prompt.

Step 4: The system will prompt you to confirm your decision in the next 30 seconds by typing FIXSKILLS CONFIRM in the command prompt.

Following this process will instantly migrate all skills. Attempting to use FIXSKILLS again will prompt a message explaining that your one-time migration has already been used.

Please be aware that opportunities to use FIXSKILLS do NOT stack. If you fail to utilize the opportunity before the next opportunity arises, then you will lose it. If you have any questions on this process, please ASSIST with a GameHost before using this migration.

Good call, and I'm sure many people are going to appreciate this reminder.

I knew this month would be hell on wheels, so I had slowly taken care of all my planning an existing fix skills on three characters in late April or early May. But if I didn't, I'd be scrambling now!

This FIXSKILLS must be used on 5/20/15?

That was my thought, too. . . but I let historical fact be my guide.

The FIXSKILLS available from 5/20/2014 to present must be used, if you don't want to lose it. On 5/20/2015, the next FIXSKILLS will be in effect, and we have until 5/19/2016 to use that one.

That's from the statement 'they do NOT stack'.

So it's really a courtesy reminder that if we want to play around with skills, and we still have the '2014' FIXSKILLS available, we can use it, and still have the '2015' FIXSKILLS available after the 20th. But we won't have two. . .

There can be only one!

That's how I recall it as well, there 'til you use it, or until the next award. The explanation was vague in that regard and I wanted to make sure something had not changed.

Odd... "Sorry, you have already used your one-time fix skill option."

Huh, I don't recall doing that -- thought I was saving my Fixskills to use before it renewed?

Same here, half my characters have that message and the other half don't.

I haven't fixskilled any of them.
