    Help with Baking Trophy

    Hey all... first post, hopefully you all can help. When I was under 100 skill, I did the freshman baking trophy quest with Baublie in freeport. I got the trophy but I didn't get a certificate or anything else... just the trophy.

    I am now at 170 skill and have gone back to get the next level test (apprentice? master? I can't remember). I equip my trophy in my primary and ask for the baking test again, but Baublie says I already took it and can't take it again.

    So how do I level my trophy? Do I need to dump my trophy and start again so I can get a higher level one and a certificate I can combine in a forge? Clearly I'm doing something wrong.

    Thanks in advance.. and all your advice here has been invaluable (been making bbq crab/tuna pies till I can do the final combine for MTPs... figure I'll wait till the pies trivial around 227).

    The trophy evolves as you succeed on combines, Aurorrae... specifically, anything that you can get a skill point on will evolve your trophy. It evolves very fast once you've clicked over to the next title, so I wouldn't be surprised if your "Beginner" trophy actually is a Freshman now. ;D

    However, if you didn't actually get a certificate... that's a bug.

      No Bug

      Under 100 skill is the beginner trophy.

      Have it equipped while you make combines it will gain skill and evolve itself.

        As Ngreth stated, when you do the Beginner Trophy you do not get a certificate. It takes a minimum skill of 50 to request a test. The test is given by tier based on your skill:

        50-99 - Tier 1 - Beginner
        100-149 - Tier 2 - Apprentice
        150-199 - Tier 3 - Freshman
        200-249 - Tier 4 - Journeyman
        250-299 - Tier 5 - Expert
        300 - Tier 6 - Master

        If your skill is 100 or greater when you request the test, once you complete all the requirements for the test you will also receive a certificate. The certificate will automatically advance to a % that matches your current skill. Equip the trophy in PRI/SEC and then place the certificate in the appropriatte container (an oven, spit, mixing bowl, etc... in this case) and click combine. If you have already skilled up to the next tier, the maximum it will evolve is 99% (which is really higher than 99% as the very next successful combine will evolve the trophy).

        You cannot request a new test while you are in possession of a trophy (of any level) for that skill.

        As stated by Tho, you level your trophy by:

        1. Have the trophy set to evolve (background will show as green).
        2. Have the trophy equiped (PRI, SEC, RANGE, AMMO).
        3. Perform a successful combine.
        4. Perform combines that are non-trivial (the trivial level of the combine must be higher than your current raw skill).
        5. If your raw skill is less than 250, the combine must be within 100 points of your raw skill.

        As a reminder, when you transition to Misty Thicket Picnic (trivial level 335), your trophy will not "earn" experience until your raw skill first reaches 235.

          The reason I said "bug" was because Aurorrae mentioned...
          I did the freshman baking trophy quest
          .

          I'd missed the "under 100 skill" part, which would mean Aurorrae actually did the BEGINNER baking trophy quest, not the Freshman. ;D
