User blog comment:Jimeee/Skyrim 1.9 beta update adds Legendary difficulty and raises level cap (Updated Apr 8th)/@comment-24.118.33.135-20130310180606/@comment-5837765-20130313013907

Um...I've got 2 characters at level 60 and I don't get how this helps, either. The perks were the best part of leveling, in my opinion. Why would you want to lose all those skills? Like I've maxed one-handed on one character and he's pretty much a god. If I dubbed it "legendary" and all those skills were suddenly gone...he would indeed be "crippled" like the guy said.

I don't get the point of this at all. But I'm hoping by you "can" they don't mean you "must."
