I average a skill up every 54 combines making MTPs. I have had better runs. I dipped down to a skill up every 30 or so combines for a short time, but it didn't last long unfortunately. I have also had runs of a few hundred attempts without a point. If you get a point every 30 combines consider yourself lucky.

Just to follow my other post up...
It took me 480 attempts to go from 230 to 238. I got points 237 and 238 in the first 15 attempts of the last baking session (160 combines) and no gains in the final 145 tries. 480 attempts/8 points = 60 attempts per point.
My INT may be a bit low at 245. I wouldn't think it would make that much of a difference, but maybe it does. My stats are 210 str, 217 sta, 187 agi, 215 dex 202 wis, 245 int and 215 cha when I am in baking mode. I also use my GM spoon. My success rate is getting better. I think I finished with ~14 stacks this last time, but my skill gains just aren't there.Last edited by Elton; 08-11-2003, 09:36 AM.Elton

Took me near 700 combines to get from 191 to 200. HMP ive never had luck on combines from them.....but MTP if you have the space will give ya 100 combines in about the same amount of time it takes to make 40 combines of HMP. Hope that helps.

I'll never understand the range. I went from 238 to 241 in the first 40 combines. I gained no points in the next 60 or so combines, then went from 241 to 247 in the last 60 combines of the session. The next day I got 248 and 249 in the first 40 attempts and point 250 with 7 combines left. Oh well, 250 now so who cares how painful the first 249 points were
