191, What next

[Quichon]

I did it to myself... I was drooling over the cured silk (yes, at the time, back in pre-vellius, cured silk was something to drool over) and someone told me about tradeskills and I thought... what the heck...

And then someone told me about fish rolls...

And then I started brewing for Heady Koilas and decided to just master the thing...

It's a bad habit, really it is.

As for post 191... you will have to deal with PITA in some form or fashion. Either it requires farming (PoP recipies, JP recipies) or massive amounts of subcombines (MTPs) or both (HMPs). Pick your poison. MTPs can be done in SH (Many thanks to the House Troll for showing us how to do it) without ever leaving the zone. The others require lots of farming.

It could be worse... it could be tailoring...

Baking is, in my (biased) opinion, the best of all the trade skills. It's useful, everyone can use stat food, and since the goods are generally consumed, everyone can use it in quantity.


To more or less repeat what I said above, if you want (relative) speed making combines, do picnics. If you would rather farm over a more extended period of time, and have the level and the proper class, hunt Jaggedpine for meat and forage shoots.

The person who orginally posted listed 41 druid, but for foragers who are of the appropriate level, Justice Fruit Pies (as someone previously listed) are a good recipe.


As an aside, for me it all started with, "Wouldn't it be cool to make a cake?"

What was I thinking?

I'm probably going to go to MTP's because I do not fear subccombines....=)

If I recall correctly, it was the other way around.

Heh, I don't fear subcombines either, and it seems like just about any skilling up after 200 (in any tradeskill) requires some prep work. After GMing brewing on Minotaur Hero Brews, anything less than a 9-item combine is a gift from Heaven! Just need 1 more AA and I'll begin my journey from 200-250 in baking, wish me luck!

I had a mob attack me once in the trial area of PoJ. I think it was a punisher or enforcer from the basement; I have no idea how it happened, since I hadn't been to the basement that day. Maybe it got stuck under the world directly under the trial area? Usually mobs just poof when they fall through the world (easy to demonstrate by pulling mobs from inside a jail cell in the basement)...

I have a question about the Jaggedpine combines. Killing the animals there doesn't lower your faction? I'd go this route, but I don't want to ruin my faction there.

EDIT: I found my answer on a post on this forum...DOH

bears, wolves, panthers lower your town faction
brell gnolls are best avoided, because they're another set of bankers/merchants
poachers and darkpaw (i think) gnolls are the ones that increase faction
snakes and griffons are there to kill
never tried a treant, so no clue what faction hits on 'em
dryads have their own faction, so kill or not, at your whim
potameids, just slaughter all the annoying fishthings
