Tradeskill Forum Suggestion, and Fletching Question

I am not sure where to put tradeskill questions- SoD discussion? *shrug* Maybe add a tradeskill forum. :)

Fletching Question:

I have tried all arrow combines to try to get above 168 skill in fletching, and I keep receiving the "too high to skill up" message.

Has anyone reached 169 skill in fletching or above yet? If so, what combine can you do to skill up at 168 skill? I may have missed something trying to figure out what combine works to continue skilling up in fletching, but I am pretty sure I have tried all of the possible arrow recipes.
 
You can fletch up to 229 iirc. There's not actually any point, currently, except for the Swiftshot quest. Fletching combines are /were bugged at 185, I think. Though there should be no problems up to that point
 
Just from looking at the Wiki I am assuming you finished your rough oaks and are finding the stretch to Rough Oak 1-Cam Bow too far to be allowed.  If you notice in the arrows on the chart show Hooked Ceramic Hunting Arrow at 161 and no listing for the trivials past them. Have you tried the next several recipes for arrows? Hooked Ceramic Combat Arrow, Hooked Ceramic War Arrow , or steel arrows? Hope that helps in some form.
 
I am one of the few people updating the wiki as I go along. Someone has added all of those recipes, although w/ out their trivial levels, and yes- I have tested those combines and even recipes w/ wooden arrowheads and bows have far trivialed to me.
 
On 2nd look, I see what you are talking about: the 1-cam oak bows. I had made those over a month ago and they were well trivial to me at 168 skill, but now it is being reported to have 192 trivial. I will check that out.

Thank-you kindly.
 
Once you start making the really low end arrows, you can fletch all the way to 229 (if things haven't been changed recently). There is one point at which you have to jump up 2 "levels" (incrementing one of the components 2 spots instead of 1 when you reach the trivial). I think there is a small typo on the trivial of one of the combines. But once you get another 3-4 skillups you can drop the quality of the component one "level" and proceed normally.
 
Just as I did a month ago, I made another Oak bow and it is still trivial at 168.

I have tried a lot of arrow combines trying to figure out which exact recipe I need to get out of skill 168. I have tried steel and ceramic arrows in all sorts of combinations and I have not yet found out which one works yet.

Can anyone recall which recipe works at 168 skill?

Edit: I made another Shaped Oak 1-cam Bow w/ silk string, 16dmg 43dly. Trivial @ 168.
 
I just tried every steel recipe there is, both hooked and wooden arrow heads, each w/ every fletching/Vane. I then tried every ceramic vane recipe there is, both hooked and field-point arrow heads, each w/ every fletching shaft.

I have dropped hundreds of platinum trying to figure out what recipe works, and I have yet to find one.

Any useful information or help would surely be appreciated. I am stuck at 168 skill in fletching.
 
#trivial @ 185
2 platinum 9 gold 5 silver 8 copper per Set of Bone Arrow Vanes.
0 platinum 0 gold 1 silver 1 copper per Large Groove Nocks.
2 platinum 5 gold 0 silver 3 copper per Bundled Ceramic Arrow Shafts.
0 platinum 2 gold 3 silver 2 copper per Hooked Arrowheads.
 
Thank-you. That worked.

I have been making the exact same arrows for regular use, except with small groove nocks which should be more difficult if anything, and those trivial at 168.

Something is definately messed up there. That was a good 500p I did not have to spend. :dance:

Thank-you again.
