This skill will make you no longer getting headache from browsing Theology books, so it's not a problem anymore grinding Theo to Max, just need plenty ducats in hand and AFK auto-browsing.

Just remember it is only for Theology.

Tip: R17 discoveries of any type are obviously quicker (x8 to finish the thesis), but the distance involved getting to them usually makes it difficult to do quickly. If you plan to do the Religion/Theology discovery route, it requires 32 discoveries in all. The shortest and easiest discovery you can grind is this one:

Old Writings Map

The discovery is inside Istanbul, where Kara Mehmet (NPC who likes Theology discoveries) can be reported to quickly and easily. The map has only a single low-level discovery pre-requisite as well, and Seville is very easy to port reset (unless you have Headache meds or a friend with Priest Wisdom 1 skill who is willing to pull the map for you).

Just a thought. There may potentially be a better way, but this is the one I found that worked best for some friends. Cheers.
