Finally won the +15% shears!

[Nalinis]

My base skill is 173, but these put me at 198..any recommendations to how this will modify my skillup path? I can't wait to use 'em.

It will help you stop doing solstice robes earlier :-)

Sorry nothing sensible to say :-(

1. You can do strand of ethereal energy combines as soon as your modified skill is 220, that's at 192. These are on merchants everywhere very cheap. Those won't trivial until 212, so you'll be able to cruise from 192 to 212.

2. You'll get max effective tailoring skill of 252 at 220, you won't need to skill-up past that unless you want to.

So the only hard skill-ups you need will be 173-192 and 212-220. White ribbons are a good choice to 182, I'd recommend superb/flawless rockhopper armors to 192, and for 212-220 do your favorite velious/cultural/solstice robe path.

Ethereal Silk Swatches will be good once you get your true skill up to 192 (effective skill 220) - I'd suggest doing ribbons/acrylia studded to 187 and then whatever you can get your hands on until 192.

Edit: Bah, too slow.

Remember - if you do Solstice RObes from 212 to 220 to NOT EQUIP the Shears.

When doing robes its much more cost effective to FAIL them.

Unless you can sell em for good pp on your server.

It's twice as likely to get a skill-up on a success though.

[Jarak_akn]

Yes but it costs <insert high number> more to suceed than to fail.

So long as sucess cost more than 2x fail you are better off failing.
