So no more hard cap on TS skills?

[Cerpicio]

I probably missed it, but has it been confirmed there is no more hard cap on tradeskill skill levels? Otherwise, what's the point of having any bonus at 300 skill?

And, to open up a whole 'nother can of worms, what does this mean for Mastery AA's? If I remember correctly, they didn't really gain you much if you were already at 300 skill.


Thanks,

You still get capped at 300 but with mod you can get more. A 15% mod with the GM trophy means abnything up to 345 would be trival.

Mastery still helps cut down on the fails as some tradeskill are still way above the 300.

Recipes with hard caps (e.g., DoN armors) are still there as far as I know; however, that doesn't necesarrily mean the new trophies and master AAs wouldn't help you on future combines from PoR.

Skill cap used to be 250, and a hard cap of 252 using a mod item.

DoN (Feb 15 2005) raised the skill cap to 300 with no hard cap, so you can have an effective skill up to 345 now with a 15% mod item.
