"Sketch" Skill

So many people Sketch Darkness-Hoarding Lich for fast exploration exp, it's one of the most preferred methods to gain fast exploration levels.

But since g21 update, the skill now has a cooldown either it's been "added" or "fixed" and now there is an actual cooldown and you can no longer sketch without having to pause now for about 20-25 seconds once you arrive back to where he is spawned at.

This is pretty annoying and I wish it would get changed back because not only does it throw you off, but now it's hard to get 5-6 sketches now on Monday/Wed/Friday. Sunday you probably can get 7 still, but it will be very close now.

    I don't get what you're talking about.

    Sketch always had a cooldown, though it shouldn't take much waiting between Lich sketchings, considering you can Wing back to town, report the quest, grab another one and head back over to Metus.

    Maybe it has something to do with the font change.
    Could be that it takes less time to load the board, so you're saving a bit more time than usual, so you end up waiting a bit longer than you're used to?

    I sketched the Arc Lich yesterday noticing nothing different other than the Quest Board loading a lot faster. There is an hour (Erinn time) cooldown on the sketch gesture always. I was able to get 6 sketches in between 12:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m, server hopping and all.

    Now, I believe THIS is probably what their problem is. And this is not a problem.

    Are you using a Goddess Wing to teleport back to Port Qilla's Base Camp? If so, you're using up far less time between doing that and the Quest Board loading faster, hence your "20-25 sec" wait. I actually use a pet to get to the two areas, so I once I return I'm 2-4 seconds before sketching again.

    You can go from 1 to 50 with about 42 sketches if you have rank 1 Exploration Mastery.
