Loss Of Memory Pills, commonly referred to as '''LOM Pills''', are a form of memory erasing drug that allow you to free up used skill points. LOM pills are sold at [[Taylor's Biochem]] and [[Dragon_Drugs|Dragon Drugs]] vendors in packs of 10, with a pill available for each sub-skill within a skill. Each use of the pack restores 5 skill points, at a small XP cost to the relevant skill, so a pack of 10 can restore 50 skill points.

LOM pills at the Taylor's Biochem in Plaza 1.

Loss Of Memory Pills, commonly referred to as LOM Pills, are a form of memory erasing drug that allow you to free up used skill points. LOM pills are sold at Taylor's Biochem and Dragon Drugs vendors in packs of 10, with a pill available for each sub-skill within a skill. Each use of the pack restores 5 skill points, at a small XP cost to the relevant skill, so a pack of 10 can restore 50 skill points. There are also an "improved" variant of loss of memory pills, these cost much more NC to purchase initially but you lose less XP per use.

When this occurs no skill points are returned, however your XP bar at the lower skill level will now be almost full - you are then free to carry on using the LOM pills to recover skill points.
