Default worth it to untrain social skills?

rerolled and approaching my highest amount of xp. Looking at skills that I don't need atm and could untrain, so I drop my current xp total to take longer advantage of the reroll boon.

Would it be worth it to untrain the social skills? No idea what they really do or how they affect end game (e.g. getting a reduction on the cut nod takes per gold transaction has little impact on low transactions, but if you start to deal with millions of gold it adds up pretty quick)

Recognition does nothing, so definitely untrain that. I would untrain salesmanship as well.

Social skills are extremely easy to level. I would untrain all of them down to zero except Recruitment which gives exp boost. (that's changed since you played so read the description if you haven't already.)

If you want to save a bit of gold you can keep Bartering also, but I think it's worth the tax to delevel it. Just do barter first when you level them back up again.

If you have a lot of crap in storage put it on an alt or let someone hold it for you.

Also, turn off accel when you aren't playing. Accel just transfers exp from combat and stat skills to learning skills which you should have pretty high already. Your total exp is way too low to waste boon on learning skills. Only level the 4 main stat skills and gear skills, nothing else.

When boon starts running out I'm sure you'll get creative in deleveling other stuff.
