TRADESKILLS SUCK!!!!

[Breathe]

Maybe they could do it so that if you fail, you get a "part of a trophy," then three or four of those are a no-fail combine into a trophy at a pre-modifiers skill of 250.

WOW. I am surprised (and that is a failing on my part).... when I came back here to post an update, I figured I'd see alot of posts telling me to "Get over it"... "Stop whining!"... blah, blah, blah.

So, I humbly apologize to ALL of you for having formed that preconceived notion. I truly appreciate all the /comfort and /understanding that you all showed. I was (still kind of am) really steamed about the success rate of a Tradeskill Trophy.

However.... alas, the fourth attempt was NOT the charm.
Yet another failure (/em throws a rope over a tree limb in Kelethin) on the tradeskill trophy for me.

But.... the 5th time WAS the charm. Today, precisely 7mins ago, Klerikal Error, of the Drinal Server... SUCCESSFULLY crafted his Grandmaster's Baking Spoon!!! This somewhat restores my faith (and pride) in grandmastering a tradeskill. Tailoring is hot on the heels of Baking (Klerikal has become better at Tailoring! (211)

Good luck, and God Bless to all of you.. may your combines be plentiful and your successful combines just as plentiful.

I had the same luck with tailoring. I'm 0 for 4 on tailoring trophy at 250 skill + geerlock with 355 int and over 300 dex (although the dex probably doesnt do anything). I believe trophies were put into game before skill restricted combines were ever concieved, but it really really should be a skill restricted 250 combine thats very low trivial or no fail.

Congratulations!

You ought to check out THIS THREAD to read of other people who failed 4 or more times on their trophies (me for one).
