Just hit OoT and read a book or watch tv, occasionally looking up to make sure you haven't run out of map and then do it over again.

I sure as fuck didn't need over 24 hours to max swimming in classic by AFK numlocking into a corner. And here not only does it take that long, but I can't even do it while afk? I shouldn't actually have to cross WK in the water every time I want 1 skillup, right?

Rabble rabble rabble.

Skill check every time you hit water, even if you are not swimming. Currently have swimming around 70's/lvl max'd?I think from fighting in shallow water bith in the swamp and GuK

As with many things in life, the real skill is in the entry/exit method.

Circle swimming has been decent skillups from what I've seen

[AgentEpilot]

Swimming seems to be weird at times, even with the ancient and powerful circle trick, it will barely go up. Other times I fall in the water and on my way out I gain 7 skill ups.

What I do is the circle thing, see if I get skill ups, if not I get out and try again. Probably all bullshit but it makes me feel like it is working.

Yes. The game checks for a swimming event more often when you change directions. I mean I have no fucking idea, but I swam a dozen times from the end of oasis to the northern ro and then I went swimming in a circle in Neriak in front of the PoD and the difference wasn't just noticeable, it was amazing.

In Kunark, I definitely got skill ups swimming against a wall in crushbone. I specifically remember doing this as no one wanted to group with my halfling warrior and I had nothing else to do.
