Grrrr.... Skill Points

[Davy]

I was wondering, seeing as there is some confusion: what is the total number of skill points a pirate can have on a weapon by the time he masters it? Is it 25, because at level 25 a pirate does not receive a skill point, or is it 26, 2 from when you receive the weapon and 24 from each level up until level 25? Thanks in advance!

You can receive a total of 26 skill points - 2 points are given when you first start the weapon and an additional skill point is given for each level after that.



That was taken DIRECTLY from the POTCO homepage. I never received ANY skill points when I got my weapon, I had to grind them out. Will we be credited with 2 skill points?
