Tinkering not Leveling

craiglitw · 11-13-2007, 10:48 PM

I've produced a couple bags of lvl 345 tinkered items and haven't gotten a single skillup; I'm still lvl 350 tinker.

Is this a bug? Was it intentional that T7 items would not contribute to T8 skillups?

Hey,

I am still waiting for my update to finish. (another 2 hours or so it says) but I wanted to ask if you tried any of the t8 recipes to see if it advanced? Since no one answered your original question, I wonder if it will require us to either make lvl 350 recipes to advance highr or not. ????

All the best,Kevin

I'm not aware of any changes to this area, and I seriously doubt anybody else would have gone in and played around with this stuff without talking to me about it. So if indeed you're not getting any skill ups and it's not just the RNG hating you, this is an unintended bug. Which I can check into tomorrow morning. In the mean time if you could submit a /bug in game that would be most helpful! SMILEY

Remember that your tinkering can't rise past your base tradeskill / adventuring level, so if you're still 70 in both of those you can't improve your alternative tradeskill.

I am a level 72 adventurer with a 350 of 360 Tinkering window and having the same luck with skill ups right now. 40+ combines without a single skillup.

Isn't a skill of 360 corresponding to level 72 which is why you don't get updates anymore?

Note the bolded text. They are saying they have 350 skill out of a possible 360.

I did /bug the issue domino, do you know if they are looking into it?

Domino · 11-14-2007, 04:32 PM

Have not been able to reproduce this locally, but we are trying now.

Howlingmoon · 11-14-2007, 05:04 PM

I had no problems skilling up past 350, once I had dinged 71 crafter.

craiglitw · 11-14-2007, 05:23 PM

71 crafter and then you could get skillup? Interesting, I wonder if it only looks to see if you are a 71 crafter and not a 71 adventurer now. Maybe that would account for me and Valdaglerion not getting skillups because we only leveled in adverturing; but if I remember correctly you could level either and then level your tinkering.

Well when I get home I'll try again, maybe the RNG did hate me and Valdaglerion on day one.

Domino · 11-14-2007, 07:39 PM

I haven't been able to reproduce this either, I tried with a 72 crafter/70 adventurer on beta server and got skill ups, and Silverfrost tried with a level 72 adventurer/level 70 crafter on our internal server and got skill ups also. Please do keep me updated if you try again tonight.

Tinkering 351! Guess the RNG does really hate me. Sorry to make you spend the time testing it Domino, I really thought it was broken.
