my level in smithing is not increasing i have smithed well over 130 ingots worth of stuff and it has not gotten brighter. in total i have smithed atleast 450 ingots (probably over) worth of stuff what should i be making at this piont.
Erm, that is so impossible! And there is a skill cap. To avoid powergaming like you apparently are trying to do. See, it works! You have to be an apprentice before you can be a master.
ok im a little lost why is it working for smithing and not mining.
The only way to get better at things is buy practice right, and that is what im doing.
no i mean i am able to mine and the level goes up. just not smithing.
(i got a contract with town guard captian to supply armour and weapons when needed so i got to work quick)
Is that what the message saying my mind is too tired to learn anymore means? That I've reached my daily skill cap? It doesn't go away with eating food so that isn't the message I'm talking about.
It does not appear to be a daily skill cap but yes it is indeed a skill cap. Usually doing something else for around 15 minutes or so is enough. It happens alot more in lower levels are of course you are "skilling up" a lot faster.
It is the new skill cap though and I personally think it is great.
It is possible that the act of making ingots does not increase your skill...or only very slowly. Actually making items will probably increase your skill faster. (Same with carpentry and boards).
But this is just a guess.
