I'm still mad AF at the whole tailoring thing, from 158 you basically have to craft 262 othmir fur caps or 335 wyvern masks unless you're a few select races... and you only have 5% chance to successfully combine until you're 200+.

Successes don't matter for skill-ups ... or at least they shouldn't (they didn't in classic, and there were massive threads on the EQ Traders forum which proved as much). They do matter for whether you get a piece of worthless gear, but who cares about the gear?

Now, I have heard from people who think successes do matter. I suspect they were just confused, but I guess it's possible if Nilbog coded skillups unclassically.
