AA Crafting mastry question

[skorpius]

:P OK i read the FAQ part about this but im asking here to be sure before i mess my self up. I very much want to do the aid grimel quest were i need and unmodifed skill of 220 in each BASE tradeskill. Now here is my question i am also an avide researcher i have skill now of 185 and would like to get to 250 so i could research all my high end spells for me and my guild (hehe the druid in my guild love me so much they all have there little pets hehe). But if i get research over 201 dose that count aganest my base trade skills or is it out side that and i could still get all 7 base skills to 250????? :roll:

I am not a researching class but isn't research cap at 200? Please correct me if I am wrong. Even if it didn't cap at 200, research would not count as one of the main tradeskills so it will not limit you.

Several questions here, so several answers:

1) Spell Research is limited to a Skill Level of 200. The game will not allow it to exceed that point. Sorry.

2) There are 7 "Prime" tradeskills:
Baking, Brewing, Fletching, Jewelcraft, Pottery, Smithing & Tailoring

3) Out of the 7 "Prime" Tradeskills, only 1 can be pushed above 200, to 250. UNLESS you spend 3 AA Points PER Tradeskill, for a maximum of 18 (3 x 6) AA Points on New Tanaan Tradeskill Mastery. For each 3 AA Points spent (spend 3 at a time), you can take an additional Tradeskill over the 200 Boundry. Once over the Boundry it can be pushed all the way to 250.

4) The other "Tradeskills" - Alchemy - Limit 200, Fishing - Limit 200, Poison Making - Limit ? (200 guess here)?, Spell Research - Limit 200, Tinkering - Limit 250 are class or race dependent.

Poison making tops out at 250 not 200.

Also personally I don't count fishing or spell research as a tradeskill since they can both be trained all the way up to 200 at a trainer. Also verant has refered to alchemy, tinkering and poison making as the "other" trade skills but never to my knowledge included fishing or spell research in that group.

Yep, they are listed as > 200 for lots, because we CANNOT get over 200. :twisted:

poison making can be bought to 250 also... see Stanos for further info.

Research *I THINK* counts as a tradeskill (although not against the 200 cap) - all the research components have the "this item can be used in tradeskills" flag. Unless they can be used in something else.. I'm not sure. I know the higher ones (39+) can be used for Celestial Essence, but (working off memory here) I think the lower ones have the flag too.

Research is also trainable up to 200 at your class trainer for a fee. "Normal" tradeskills will not allow you to train past 21.
