      The binding powders were a FAR cheaper method for my progression to 300 in Research, and I got to do a second combine with each successful first combine, so I basically got 2 skill-up attempts per powder.

      I never spent more than 100pp per powder and much less most times in addition to the drops I got in group that no one else wanted.

      Good luck in your journey towards the Ethereal Quill

        I’ve updated to include new stuff and bring more in line with the other sections.
        After scanning guide 4 and this guide I have this to say:
        Yes, some may not like CR, but the same can be said of all the other TS freebies.
        I suggest continued use of Runic Partchment solution as a cheaper alternative to the Fine Runic Partchment solution that was suggested.
        I call for the elimination of EQ levels 1-50.

          Suggested alternative for baking

          Another good laternative for baking to 282 is Boar Chops:

          Baking Components: Boar Meat, Garnish, Spices
          In: Tanaan Oven, Collapsible Spit
          Yield: 1
          Trivial at: 282

          Nice simple recipe with meat farmed in PoP, very like the Jord Meat Pie. What with the recent flag removal, there are going to be more people xping in PoP than ever.

            I know this is going to be a very stupid question to all of you so I apologize in advance. I've recently returned to EQ after an extended absence and there are many things I've forgotten. So.. here goes.. is there a quest or something I need to do to progress past skill level 300? I've tried searching the boards, but I can't seem to find my answer. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

              Using binding powders after the trade skill quest referenced earlier.

              There is a lot of farming for the binding powders. However, turning those parchments made with the binding powders into a one charge spell scroll will get you to the next powder without having to farm as much. The bonuses of this method are.
              1) Cheapest method if you farm instead of buying on the bazaar.
              2) The spell scrolls created by these parchments are 1 charge, can be traded and All/All. Thus anyone can use them and you can even sell either to the merchants or other players.

              All the spells made from these parchments use the same two ingredients with the enchanted parchment.
              Quill of the Arcane and an ink specific to the type of spell.

                No. Well, not your raw skill anyway. At present, 300 is the highest you can get any tradeskill.

                It is possible to increase your modified skill by completing one of the trophy quests. With much perseverance, you can get a modified skill of 345. (300 + 15%)

                There are also some dropped tradeskill items that will give you as much as a 15% bonus. A fair amount of them are found in the high end zones of the Luclin expansion. The FAQ has a nice list of tradeskill mods.

                  Thanks! I'll get to work on the trophy quests. I guess I just keep seeing these 400+ trivials and I thought they upped the skill cap.

                    I kinda assumed that the spells will be made if you did the hard expensive part of getting the binding powders.

                    Thanks for the list though.

                      What I'm doing (or trying to do anyway) is not making any of the spells until I've trivialed on the parchments.

                      Since you're going to have to make many parchments (and thusly need many binding powders) why not make as many of them count as possible?

                      Save your parchments and wait until you hit trivial for making the parchments.. then use the parchments to maket he spells and try to trivial on the spells you can make with those parchments before moving onto the next parchment.

                      Of course, if you can't wait or don't have the bank space (or alt space) then do as you need to. But I just like to maximize the chances of skillups with as few binding powders as I can.

                      Edit: Making this more clear what I mean

                      With Simple Binding Powder, I make Simple Enchanted Parchments and put into bank. I wait until i've trivialed (192) on the parchments. By then I have 300+ parchments in the bank. Then, and Only Then do i start working on simple spells to max out trivial on them before going to regular binding powders.

                      Or, If I made the spells as I went along.. one day I find 100 powders, I make 100 parchments and hit 189 skill. I make the spells and hit 192 skill. Now I have to make more parchments to continue (as I find more powders) but I get no skill ups from here on out for making parchments. They are just a trivial sub combine now.

                        Solstice robes

                        I still find that with the prices of most of the tradeskill items on my server(Druzzil ro) that Solstice robes are fairly simple and the only difficult to obtain item required is imbued emeralds. For those with this spell (tunare Druids and Clerics) or those who have access to them, this is a very viable path.

                        I personally am doing these post 212 but would recomend them for arround 240- 252 range.

                          I know there is a JC quest in Cresent Reach. Does anyone know if there are similar quests for the other tradeskills in Cresent Reach?
