I've reached level 17-cannot use skill
 

I'm an unlimited member and have reached level 17 on voodoo, pistol, and dagger. I cannot use these skills or buy the ammo to use them (it still says I require the said level).

I've tried re-booting my system, logging out/in, and it still doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Not quite sure. Sometimes it takes up to 24-hours before all of the unlimited access features because available to ye. Sometimes the game is just workin' slow.

If it doesn't work soon, I suggest contacting Pirates Online about the issue at: http://piratesonline.go.com/#/help/contact_us.html

Hope this helps, mate!

This may sound strange, but did you spend the skill points to activate the skills? Just because they are available, doesn't mean that they are active. You have to spend a skill point to avtivate them.

Have you activated the previous skills? When you gain a new skill, but haven't activated the lower one first, the new skill doesn't work. In that case, I think it says you require _______ (name of lower skill).

Thanks for your help. Now I get the whole Skill Points thing. Never understood what that was all about until now. Thanks so much!
