Howdy all.
I tried to do a "new to me" combine last night and got a message telling me I'm not even skilled enough to try this recipe, let alone fail it. What the heck???
I can understand failing a lot because my skill level is way below the trivial for a combine, but not even be allowed to do the combine??
Specifically, I wanted to make Ethereal curing agent.
When I look at the item on EqTraders I see it has a trivial of 212, but the line above it says "required skill level: 220".
My skill at the time was 158 with my 5% bonus equipped.
So what's the deal? A required skill level higher than the item even trivials out at???? I know it is early in the morning, but that doesn't make a bit of sense to me.
I also just now notice, while getting facts together for this post, that it does say a tanaan brew barrel and I was using a brew barrel in PoK not far from the main bank. But if it was because I was using the wrong brew barrel wouldn't it tell me "these items cannot be combined in this container" instead of telling me my skills aren't high enough to even make the attempt?
Lastly, where is a tanaan brew barrel at if not all brew barrels are tanaan?
Last little tidbit: The toon I'm doing this with is a low level tradeskiller. Could it be that I'm reading the "not high enough skill" message and taking it to mean my brewing skills when it really means my toon level?
