  • 250 skill, and now I'm stuck

    I just hit 250 skill in tinkering, and now I'm literally stuck. I've gone through over 150 combines, and no skillup... is there some bug where this is normal, am I just having a bad run, or what? I'm working on combines about 15-20 above my skill level, so it's not that I shouldn't get skillups. It's just frustrating because I have to drop a lot of plat at this point on, and I don't really have the bank stash to support it too well... bleh.

    This is were some helpful soul usually runs through the mechanics of the RNG and says something like, "gee, that's not too bad of a run, statistically speaking, not unusual at all." I am not on of those people. I sympathise. Runs like this suck. Unless you have a guild feeding you ingrediants, it doesnt take too many dry spells like this to turn you away from Tradeskilling forever. (And by forever, I mean like a week. At least that is how long my "forevers" usually last.)

    Oh, and what expansion let you go past 250? PoP? You do have that one, eh?

      No expansion required for 300. It happened at the time DoN came out, but the limit is 300 for everyone. (Unless it's 200 of course.)
      I tried combining Celestial Solvent, a Raw Rough Hide, Rough Hide Solution and a Skinning Knife. But the result was such an oxymoron, it opened a rift into another universe. I fell through into one of Nodyin's spreadsheets and was slain by a misplaced decimal.

        I have all 10 expansions. It just seems so incredibly odd to me that I got the expert tinker title flying above my head, something I was incredibly happy about, and then I go through a run like that. *grumbles*

        *Edit: Any other number, and I wouldn't complain, I know it's just the RNG. But 250 exactly...
