Maybe in that case, yes we'd have a small use for it.

Then again, I didn't have any trouble making a level 100 combine at 80 for my TS epic.

Another possibility would be to have a permanent tradeskill modifier on clothing. Like +10 progress -5% success every combine. Possibly even a kind of tradekill-only power regeneration that would give you like +3% power per event.

This is the main reason i started the thread, I myself, am not to creative, infact i probably couldn't truely come up with a truely original idea beyond the suggestion of something. Maybe just maybe something could be put in to where our skills mattered, or our success rate mattered, to where tradeskilling was challenging again without having something to help us. We used to need each other, An alchemist to make our resins, washes and oils,  a sage to make our paper, a tailor to make threads, yarns and armor and weapsonsmiths to make things like buckles or rivets. Some say it was good to forgo such things, I myself... I miss it. I hope this continues a bit longer, the discussion of new ideas is a good thing... even the flames teach more then  they burn sometimes....
