Sorta makes the game feel unfun having the current set up. In addition just about every other skill even if at a lower level will still level effectively with same level content, may take a fun or two of grouping or grinding but still very doable.

If you check the Dread Knight section, there's a dev quote stating they are trying to make the skill ups work on misses. Where as currently they only work on Hits.
