Game Mechanics: Blacksmithing Trivals

[MrSparkle001]

So then how are we supposed to train smithing? If banded is trivial at about 115 and most fine plate is now trivial in the 200s, what's in between? I know pots and sewing kits to 135 (I just did pots to 122 and will do sewing kits soon to 135) but why were fine plate trivials increased but not banded?

I ask because these two quotes are contradictory:

I checked the large banded and fine plate tonight and it appeared to be at the correct (updated) trivial levels.

Today I got blacksmithing up to 115 with skewers, then made a full suit of large banded sans tunic and gloves and everything was already trivial.

The updated banded levels should be:

banded gorget 102
banded mask 135
banded belt 135
banded bracer 102
banded boots 135
banded mantle 168
banded cloak 175
banded gauntlets 168
banded sleeves 102
banded leggings 168
banded helm 135

Large and small banded are still at the original values by mistake. You can make regular banded armor which has the updated trivials to raise blacksmithing til next patch when the large and small will get the newer trivials as well. Olderj was just mistaken on the large banded being fixed because its not obviously.

Oh large and small aren't fixed yet. Sucks because I'm doing large. I don't even know where an ogre sk can get medium molds.

And how long will the update take? It looks like there's months between updates, and I don't want to wait months to continue training blacksmithing.

Sewing kits are trivial at 122. They should be 135 if we are switching to old trivials.

Fixed, pending update

Small sewing kit -> 135
Fierdal Sewing Kit -> 162

Bump for more blacksmithing trivial research.

I'm sure it will take a while to get them all done, but I'm willing to work on them.

I can try, have we looked into arrowheads yet? It's all post trivial for me so it's hard to check.

ok I know this is an old topic, and I really did read through these posts. So is Ornate Electrum/Gold/Platinum no longer able to combine on the P99 server at present?

Yes, only the regular ornate is left now.

its still works and you can use it to level bs some if you wish. it is probably just faster to do fine steel plate now check out wiki it as currently trivials and how to best skill up.
