Swimming skill

[KylonOrina]

Is swimming skill bugged?
I've been swimming around in Qeynos for like 40 minutes and have not gotten 1 skill increase.
Want to get the skill up so I can do Bloodgill goblins and get the ancient coin.

Run around in circles in innothule swamp shallow waters.

Yes, "run". Not swim.

Are you just num locking into a wall? You won't skill up if that's what you're doing. You have to like do circular motions.

Yeah I did. I used practice points until it was in the 40s.

And I wasn't running into a wall. I held down forward + turn, enter twice to lock me into circle swimming.

Mine has been moving crazy slow as well (at about 110 from starting at 100 as an Iksar). I was wondering if it was because my low int/wis. Is the rate in which the skill increases based on those attributes?

They nerfed swimming so it goes a lot slower than it used to (referring to back in 2010). Skill-ups every 10-20 minutes now...painful...
