How do I improve skill "Safe Fall" on BST? Haven't got a clue and no one in guild knows either... Any help here would be greatly appreciated...

I have trained it at the Butcherblock LDoN camp. Get an SoW and run up and down that rock spire thing right next to the camp. It will improve as you fall.

There are bunches of other places to work it as well. Basically any place that you can climb up fairly high and jump down will work.

as said above, everywhere. Go up the wall in pok and just push up and down on the keyboard over and over again till you fall and fall and get it up to the max, it might be the easiest to increase.

I maxed mine out by going to the pok and finding one of the buildings that have steps running up to a second story like you find on the north and south sides. You can then run up the first set of stairs and then over the wall to the ground and then back around to the stairs and just keep running that in a circle. Got my safe fall maxed in just over an hour.

Small question, is that for anyone with Safe Fall (racial/class) or just those that have it as a skill at some level?

The 2 places I went to max safe fall on my rogue is Toxxulia Forest right at the pok book. Get sow and just run forward and backwards up and down the cliffs. The best places are where you hit but keep falling. Some places you'll hit 3 or 4 times increasing the chance to skill up. After I got pretty high I went to the Emerald Jungle and run up and down those cliffs.

I don't think BSTs can improve their safe fall; you just started out with some fixed value (50 I think?) for being a Vah Shir, and racial skills generally can't be raised.

a great place to train safe fall is in Erudin with the teleporter thingys. There is a way to set it up using auto-run. Max out safe fall in no time.

I recommend Everfrost in the open area. The hills are perfect, get a SoW and run around you get 10+ falls a minute and can kill Mammies to pass the time and sell their tusks and meat to make some side plat.

Safefall for the Vah Shir is a racial benefit (like forage for Iksar) and cannot be raised. iirc it is a default 50.

Wondering when my ogre beastlord will get safe fall.

RACIAL abilities are capped. No way to improve them unless they are also a class ability.
Class ability skill level will overwrite racial caps when the appropriate level is reached. IE frogloks, (iskar as well?) start with 100 swimming. Frogloks will not see a change in swim skill until level 20. (At least Courtin didnt, but that was 2.5 years ago.)

I don't play my BST anymore, but when I was playing her I also wanted to know about this.

The short answer: only Vah Shir get Safe Fall. Further, only Vah Shir get one other skill (sneak?) that's listed on Alla's.

If your beast is not a kitty, don't worry about 'em. You'll never have them, and they're not that important anyway (very low skill caps).

Go to North Ro and run up and down the sand dunes at steep angles. Every time you bounce, you have a chance to skill up Safe Fall. Generally, any zone with lots of steep hills that you could fall from and take damage while running is a good candidate for Safe Fall practice.

you can't raise it. You are born with a skill of 50 and it's capped at 50. Same with sneak. And, only Vah Shir get those racial abilities.

The mountains in stonebrunt have some steep spots all the way down to that cliff on the coast.

Oh, wait, is it strictly a racial ability, or does your class get it as well?? If the BST class does not get Safe Fall as a class ability, then you can't improve it. Only class abilities can be improved.Racial ones are capped.

A good example would be Wood Elves get a racial forage. If you choose a class that does not get forage as an ability, you can't train in it or improve it through practice. If you create a wood elf ranger or druid, though, then once you acquire forage as a class ability, then you can train it and level it with practice as long as it not already maxed (or beyond) for your level. Do you understand how it works? Another example would be Dark Elf hiding. They all get the hide ability, capped at 50, but Dark Elf rogues can improve it once they acquire it as a class ability and the level cap has lifted beyond the 50 that they start with.
