    Question

    :?: Is there a direct correlation with your skill in a particular tradeskill to the trivial level the recipe has when determining how quickly you get a skill up?

    I read the FAQ on stats and tradeskill, but it didn't really touch on the effect that the trivial level might have on the skill up.

    Any help here would be greatly appreciate.

    There has been some debate as to the fact that you have a better chance to succeed on a successful combine as opposed to a failed one, therefore, if you are closer to the trivial for the item, you should see a higher success rate, therefore a better chance of a skillup, over the long haul.

    Outside of that, all that matters is whether you are holding your Luckyfish or not.....

      RE: Question

      There (as far as I know) is absolutely NO correlation between how often you skillup and your skill level OR the trivial of the item. It has to do with something you will see referred to as RNG (someone explain this in detail again, I missed it the last time) and is why you will sometimes see people screaming about having to do 100-200 combines and often not even see a SINGLE skillup, and others will talk about having two or three in a row or over the course of only a few combines.

          some people believe (BELIEVE being the key word) that if your current skill lvl is approximately 20-30 below the trivial lvl of what you are making, you'll skill up faster.

          The higher you wis/int is DOES effect how well you skill up, with the smithing skill it is based on the higher stat between str/wis/int.


          other BELIEVE that the last point or 2 before you triv an item are the hardest. (Example, my skill ist 121, what i'm combining trivs at 122)

          since the RNG (random number generator) has a lot to do with stuff, it is impossible to know for sure how it all works, unless you were the one that actually wrote the code for VI.

            No correlation in my personal experience.
            RNG all the way.
