SOME tradeskills have a secondary stat.
Blacksmithing is STR
Fletching is DEX
Poison Making is DEX

That's all.

The only benefit you get from the higher of your Int, Wis, or [secondary stat] is a chance to skill up on a failure. The higher the stat, the higher your chance to skill up when you fail. Someone who is naked and has a hypothetical 100 in every stat has twice as much of a chance to skill up on a success as they do on a failure, as a point of reference.

The only thing that affects your success rate is your skill level and the trivial of the item you're attempting to combine.
