I know what you mean, but I am at L35 now, and hit 100 and can't get it to
move at all (after 1100pp spent and 160 attempts at stalking probes)
Read back through the messages earlier this month, there is apparantly a cap
similar to that of spell research which is (L-15)x5 (just repeating this
since I do not run a caster I have no way of actually knowing this to be
true.
I don't know if I misunderstood what you are saying, but the formula is:
(Level - 15) x 5
So, (18-15) x 5 = 15 skill max
But I feel that my wall is very real.... I will get to L36 sometime in the
near future and try it out.
In the meantime, you are correct in saying that it's only available at
higher levels.....

This doesn't make sense since 18 X 5 = 90. Then, if you add the addition +
5 pts, it makes 95 skill or should. This has to be a bug since this would
make tinkering only available to higher levels. :(
