You could drown. :P

I've actually considered doing this, but just haven't gotten around to it. Never considered it might be taboo. Good question.

We might need to create a separate forum just for you to start threads in.

But to answer your question, no GM's have ever said anything about AFK skill ups, so I would assume it is legal.

I do remember reading though that it was changed so swimming into a wall wouldn't skill you up(not sure if that was here or classic or both), so it would be best to go into the ocean and have something hold down forward & right/left.

I got skillups swimming into a post on the pier at Sisters in OoT a couple days ago... just wasn't AFK.

If you can get yourself a waterstone, go into kedge keep for a few minutes, and you'll pretty much max out your skill.

There is a nice little alcove in upper guk near the spiders that I usually afk swim at.

Too shallow to drown and relatively safe from trains!

Last I knew swimming was level capped on here, so you can only get 5* your current level + 5 swimming skill.

I never knew swimming was capped, on my play character i got maxed at 14 or so...granted this was way back before swimming was even fixed, and when it was fixed i literally got max swimming in 2 minutes maybe?

Anyways, kedge bug is fixed. Last I knew (5 months ago) you would not gain ultra-fast skillups with swimming. However, I could be wrong in which case forgive me.

I am a member of Drunk college folks and I will personally admit that I died twice while swimming in the NFP pond outside the Paladin guild. Lost level 38 until I found a resurrection. 200pp down the drain. But this is why I joined the guild Drunk college folks, to be a part of a collective group of shitfaced individuals.
