Bowcrafting & Fletching

[Kylathew]

Just GMed this today. The other thread was more about the macro to do it with, but just wanted to post some info about my experience with it.

I started with 50 skill.

50-71 real : Bows
71-90.9 real : Crossbows
90.9-GM : Heavy Crossbows

Resource Consumption - 60,071 boards (Should be ~3k less due to my testing of the gain stop for crossbows)

I hit a HUGE wall at 90.9 for crossbows, I went through 3k boards just to see if I could gain past that, but did not, so i'm thinking that either i'm very unlucky or that is indeed where the gains stop at. Slight wall at 98.0 skill with the heavies, took maybe 2k to get to 98.1, but after that the rest of the gains were smooth sailing.

I know that this is not a needed skill to GM, but my purpose is more for RP than for profit.

Hope this helps someone !
