Skill points bug? Im stuck!

[Jaysun]

I am currently leveling a wizard and all has been fine (past life 53) but while trying to level from 4 to 5 and have 9 skill points available. But for some reason all of a sudden specific skills are locked out.

I want to raise heal, balance, and Intimidate which I was able to do just fine the previous levels but now I can't. Is there something new I am unaware of playing a wizard that prevents this? Am I just super bugged? I have logged off...switched class levelers etc. When I go to another class and say i want to multi-class it allows me to put points in just fine. It is only when I click on wizard.

Someone please advise...bug/screwed/normal?

Thanks

Sounds like a bug. Try logging out/in and then visit the trainer again.

Sadly was first thing I did.

There's a max per level that can be spent in skills that are non-class skills.

That was my first thought too. And working it out;

Level 1 : 2 Points (4 points invested max)
Level 2: 2 1/2 Points
Level 3: 3 Points
Level 4: 3 1/2 Points
Level 5: 4 Points

Yet somehow OP managed to invest more points into them that technically allowable at Level 4. Which means, OP, shut this thread, walk away with your head down and invest those points quietly into other stuff, because you're ahead right now.

Pure wizard? Used one of the paths (that does weird things sometimes)? So many things to wonder why the points are where they're at.

Pure wizard. I went palemaster. So can only have 4 at level 5? How did I invest earlier. I didn't do anything different. Will be pastliving so not looking to cheat the system. Just curious why its an issue.

My guess? Lag.

Since U51, a lot of players have logged on. This has resulted in more stuttering on the servers than usual. If during levelling, you added the points in, then walked away, went back to change the selection because you wanted to be sure (it happens), or added points whilst it was lagging, that could have added more than what was possible.
