Crafting and Wis/Int?

If it follows the trend of most stat returns, 100->200 will yield a 100% increase, and 200-255 will be significantly less.

It's worth noting some tradeskills may use stats other than INT/WIS (if they're higher) such as STR for blacksmithing and DEX for tailoring.

Str and Dex are affect the rate of success at combines for their respective trade skills, not the chance at skill ups. Those are still Int/Wis based.

I've never heard of the prime stats affecting success rates. I've always been under the impression that success rate is a function of your (Current Skill) VS (Trivial Skill level of the item) and your stats are used to determine your chances of getting a skillup.

Can you cite this, anywhere? I've never seen it.

Stats increase rate of skill up on a failed combine. Think, a person with a lot of wisdom/intelligence will see their mistake and learn from it.

Im fairly certain it shouldn't increase skill up chance on successful combines in classic - Though the EQTraders calculator currently shows it as impacting that chance.

It definitely has 0 impact on your likelihood to succeed a combine. Only on your skilling up.

^This is how I believe/understood it worked.

I'm citing from a no-longer-classic source, but this agrees with you (bold text my add). From http://www.eqtraders.com/articles/ar...r=030000000000 :

Intelligence & Wisdom, whichever is higher governs your chance to gain skill increases when practicing any tradeskill.

Charisma will affect your prices, both buying and selling, with merchants.

Smithing skill increases use a secondary stat of Strength. The highest of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Strength governs your chance of gaining skill in smithing.

Fletching skill increases use a secondary stat of Dexterity. The highest of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Dexterity governs your chance of gaining skill in fletching.

Poison Making skill increases use a secondary stat of Dexterity. The highest of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Dexterity governs your chance of gaining skill in poison making.

Stats do not affect your chance of success for a combine. Only your current skill (modified by any skill-enhancing items) affects your chance of success.
We've included a handy-dandy calculator for determining the chance of a succesful combine.
