The skill points I have added to my tree do not correctly add to my craft for the Aqirite Brainwave Projetor. I am missing almost 80 points that I am talented into.
The maximum skill level from knowledge is going to be 161. This requires 40/40 Engineered Equipment, 20/20 Inventor’s Necessities, 30/30 Profession Gear, and 40/40 Inventing. Then you have up to 40 from profession gear, and 100 from engeering level, putting the maximum skill level at 301 with rank 1 materials.
Where do you think you’re missing 80 points worth of skill? I can tell you right now that all of the above of working properly.
So you are saying it is intentional that you cannot craft an R5 helm? (without using the +40 skill item)
With r2 and r3 materials you get an increase in skill, that should put you high enough to get R5, especially with concentration being used.
I know I am late getting to this point. But I started the expansion 4 months late.
So here is my dilemma, I have the above specializations max’ed. I have a R3 Brainwave Projector that I want to recraft to an R5, but I am 24 points short.
But to craft a new helm I am 1 point over the require skill, but then I need the 300 Artisan’s Acuity again.
Your issue is that you didn’t use rank 3 materials in your initial craft. When crafting an item, the rank of materials you use is stored and when you recraft that item the materials are then essentially replacing materials used in the initial craft. However, this is only going to account for 30-50% of the initial material list so depending on what you used in your initial craft you can see quite the variance in skill level on the recraft.
That said, just use concentration to force a r5 and don’t necro a 6 month old bug report thread when you have an entirely different issue.
