I think these cap at lvl 10 with the x3 copper and x1 zinc. I say this because when i got to lvl 9 i got a .2 skill up. Then i got .1, .2, .1, .2, .1, .1, .1 from making brass sheets which gave me lvl 10 goldsmithing. That only adds up to .9 and with the .2 one could have carried over.

I've been desynthing brass rings for brass ingots, the cap is suppossed to be 13, but i was doing it at lvl 14 + advanced synthesis support, so i was lvl 17 and got .2 skill up off it. so the cap for desynthing brass rings must be at least lvl 18.

The cap may be higher than 13, but advanced synthesis support has NO affect on whether you can skillup.

For instance, if you are level 14 with advanced support(effective level of 17) and you smith a 15 cap item, you can still skill-up.

Based on your experience you could only say the cap might be 15.

this is probably one of the best things to do, i am now level 14 goldsmith and im still grinding for skill on these...

dont forget to use these to make brass rings (2 ingots) and then grind them to make 1 or 2 ingots again... probably the most cost effetive thing to do until you hit the 18 exam tbh

No, your not crazy, your just stupid, when you HQ something, you usually get more than one item, or a better version of the item, and i am also assuming that you were desynthing brass rings and got 2 ingots, which may not be all that uncommon

To get over the cap at every 10 skill, you need to talk to a specific person after skill 8, 18 etc.

These NPCs can always be found close to or in the guild. They will ask you to make an item, Xiphos in your case. Make it / buy it, and give it.

I think +1 versions are also excepted, as I seem to get those 'not good, but not bad either' responses.

I've been making Brass Ingots for quite a while now (skill level 3), and they've been giving me skill ups fairly consistently (.1 every 2 or 3 tries) up until I hit skill level 9. My last 12 haven't upped my skill, so I'm guessing 9 is the cap for these. I'll keep testing to make sure that's correct.

Bronze ingot is different from a Brass ingot.

Bronze = Copperx3 + Tinx1 + Fire Crystal
Brass = Copperx3 + Zincx1 + Fire Crystal

I could make this combination with level 0 goldsmithing and it gave me a +0.1 increase.

I failed on first attempt, so it might be difficult, but made it and without synthesis support.

Edit - recently there were changes to the allakhazam website, and base skills were no longer posted on this item. For this reason my post may befuddle some of you but I assure you, back then it made sense! Just smile and nod, and revel in the present. Good times!!

I've made three ingots so far (I'm a thief, I get LOTS of beastcoins) and so far there's been no change in my smithing skill, nor any "gains .0" or anything that would signify any change. Any idea how much activity it takes to start earning skill levels?
And, yes, I'm a member of the guild.
Thanks.

A LOT =(

Sorry to break that news to you. I have been leveling Goldsmith a lot and I am only at lvl 14 (about to hit 15). It is VERY EXPENSIVE and unless you know where to find resources and what items are cost effective to grind, you will be in for a long haul. After you reach the first test, I don't think you earn skill by crafting ingots. Talk to the NPC at the guild shops and they give you items you can craft at your lvl. Depending on who you talk to, the NPC will give you ideas that may give you xp for crafting the item. Hope this helps and good luck to ya...=)

*****Correction*****
Let me clarify by saying that the ingots I am referring to are brass. Once you hit the lvl after amateur (think its initiate) you can start crafting silver ingots which will grant you xp for that lvl only. If you thought the cost of zinc and brass ingots were high, wait til you get to the silvers =/ Once you pass that, you got mythril and darksteel to look forward to. Hope you are not attached to your gil.

If I'm not mistaken, brass beastcoins dont drop. Even if you were doing fire crystal + 4 copper beastcoins, it should take you up to ~3 goldsmithing. I've been doing the 3 copper ore + 1 zinc ore method (since I have no clue where to get brass nuggets), and it continued to give me skill past 6 goldsmithing (yes, brass and copper ingots are goldsmithing, not blacksmithing!).

p.s. Membership in the guild only provides 2 things: temporary skill support and skill advancement tests. You can get up to 10 in any skill without ever joining a guild. However, to break that 10 skill cap, you will need to take an advancement quest from the guildmaster.

Yeah, if you use 4 Beastcoins it ups smithing instead of goldsmithing, and can be done with 0 skill. (Great place to start upping skill)
