[rgarrett]

I need help with skill gaining im not sure what to make ive read around read the guides
"
Here is what I made to get to GM:

45 - 65: Cutlass
65 - 85: Short Spear
85 - 95: Plate Gorgets
95 - GM: Plate Gloves
"


everywhere i look im supposed to be making short spears at 65 smithing well i waited till i hit 68.4 smithing which is 71.5 in fake something here is fishy because i cannot make any spears yet?

Looks like you got that info from the long blacksmithy thread in the guides section. Heres what I've done so far with good gains.

50-65 = cutlass
65-75 = kryss
75-85 = short spear

At 85 I switched to long spear but wasn't sure if it would take me to GM since its the last thing someone said they used. As I read more and more I found that some were making plate gorgets at 85 and GM'd so thats what I did last night. Used between 1.2-1.5k ingots (before smelting) and got up to 86.x smithing. I'm going to switch back to long spear (I made 10 and it got me .1 before I switched) and see how that goes.

This is what I've done so far; I've yet to decide whether to continue using spears or do the traditional gorgets/plate gloves to GM.

Code: Select all

Blacksmith:
Skill                   |  Item            | Ingots Used
22.0-43.0 (36.7) |  Dagger         |  1700
43.0-67              |  Cutlass        |  9600
67-75                 |  Kryss           |  3500  
75-83.8               |  Short Spear |  3800
83.8-86.6            |  Gorgets       |  4000
88.6-91.9            |  Long Spear  |  3500

Thanks. I'll use the long spears to ATLEAST 92 smithy and reassess at that time what I want to do. Can you keep up posted on your progress?
