Hi all.  I decided to wait (more like just neglected the other weapons because there was nothing ever viable besides fist weapons) until the high 30s to really go back and train up 2hd/martial staff skill.  I have raised it up to around 120 just fighting stuff my level, but it is very slow.  Will I gain more experience if I go back and fight lower level stuff, stuff that I would normally gain skill at at the level (i.e. at 120 skill I should be fighting level 12/13 stuff).  Obviously I would hit the mob more, but would also make the gains more common?

Anybody know if going back to lower level stuff will help gains if I am solo'ing?  Don't wanna join a group and raise it and keep whiffing, not too fair.  Rather raise it up on my own. 

Raising skill from 0 any time after level 20 is a big pita.

Meh. Best bet is to aoe low level mobs
