The amount of experience needed, X, is irrelevant, Caith. It's the investment of time needed to level. The truth is, the WORK in tradeskill leveling has already been done in getting to 90 in the first place. Getting an adventurer to 90 is more or less a game of deciding which route of powerleveling that character you want to take; tradeskills are ALWAYS work. So forgive me if I believe that it shouldnt take me longer to go 95-96 tailor than it does 95-96 Inquisitor, or that it should even take the same amount of time. The numbers you speak of matter not, if the time investment becomes ridiculous. Besides, you have other ways of keeping tradeskillers from getting what they want quickly, ala research assistant bottlenecks and requiring elapsed time to pass before a follow up quest is offered. Leveling should NEVER be more work than adventuring.
