Both ID and Begging are skills that only get a chance to increase if you are
successful. Once you get ID (and I assume Beg) over 50 it goes up fairly
fast and is actually useful when solo'ing. When solo'ing with ID I will
start using hitting it when the target is under 50% and I have successfully
chained it, as it will turn and not move :) Giving you several free shots.
You can practice ID on anything (corpses, players, pets, etc..) Beg can be
practiced on pets.

The best way I found to raise Bind Wounds (mine is maxed at 100) was to get
a backpack full of bandages and go to a crowded low-level dungeon
(Blackburrow is great for this) and shout out free wound binding at zone.
All the melee solo'ist will come and help you raise your skill.
