Editing (section) Tinkering 0 You are not logged in. == Leveling Up a Tinkerer == Tinkering is a ''secondary tradeskill''. Thus, you do not gain levels in Tinkering like you do in the ''primary tradeskills''. Instead, you level it up by gaining skill points - similar to your attack or casting skills (i.e. parry, focus, etc.). The maximum skill points you can earn is based on the same formula as all skills (5 x Level), using the higher of your Adventure or Crafting level. That means a level 60 Adventurer OR Crafter will have a maximum of 300 skill points, 350 at level 70, 400 at 80, and so on. What you can craft and what recipe books you can scribe are based on your skill points. You have a chance of gaining a skill-up every time you craft a Tinkered item. ===Gaining Skill=== [[Image:Tinkering-trivial_skillup2_small.jpg|frame|right|Gaining a level 76 (376 Tinkering) skillup from a level 12 (60 Tinkering) item.]] You don't need to craft the highest quality (i.e., Pristine) of a given item to gain skill. In fact, you can gain skill just crafting the lowest quality. The chances to gain skill are not any higher if you go all the way to pristine. However, as you craft Tinkered items, a portion of one of the materials (specified in the Examine window as a "By-product") is returned to you upon completion; crafting to higher qualities yields a better return on these "by-products". Also, it appears you can gain skill in Tinkering even when crafting items that are trivial (greyed out). It appears that there is no level limit to gaining skill. Your chances of gaining skill, however, will most likely be higher when crafting items closer to your level.''(Click the blue links to see the examples.)''
