Okay. Not so much a guide as me buying each block and trying to shave it.

>train crafts
You currently have 440 skill training points available.
Your current craftsmanship skill is 0 and you are able to train it to a maximum of 102.
It will cost one skill point to raise craftsmanship skill. How many times do you wish to train it?
102

y
You speak with a trainer and indicate you wish to improve your craftsmanship skill. The trainer leads you to an area where you may receive instruction and begins to explain a number of aspects of the skill, then tests your ability. Finally satisfied that you have learned something, the lesson is brought to a close.
[Your craftsmanship skill has improved from 0 to 102.]
look on table

So, gaoun is the only storebought block I can manage. I shall(at some point) try the various other types of wood.

Oddly, the shop does not provide a Craftsmanship bonus, so this is at my base 102 ranks.

Have not re-trained my stats, yet, so those are base.(Except Intellect, which has the +10 bonus from the 20th quest)

Agility: 3
Charisma: 6
Coordination: 4
Intellect: 6 (16)
Mentality: 9
Perception: 4
Strength: 3
Vitality: 5

Once you re-train your perception, you find it much easier to plane some of those types of woods.

i believe the difficulty order is:

gaoun
silbein
saifbraelsh*
aefafe*
haeleio

*These two might be the other way around. And gromwood is somewhere after silbein and before haeleio, as well.

haeleio's super hard to work with, too. with 200+ craftsmanship and over 90 perception, i couldn't plane it for the life of me.

Eeep! You need 102 points just to plane a block? For a mage or psionic, that means that can't make their own book from scratch until 51st promotion! Can we get a little hint of craftmanship/perception ratio?

Dude, he trained craftsmanship up to 102 because he's a 51st Psionic. He was just maxing it for his level. I doubt you need 102 points in it for gaoun blocks.

The bare minimum requirements have already been posted in another thread. Do a little searching, you'll find it.

I hadn't thought to do any testing until I had already maxed Craftsmanship.

Ah, sorry, I misread the log. I thought you HAD tested it and 102 was your answer.

And I looked at all the other threads and the only numbers I see are my numbers...and with those numbers, I can't plane blocks.

you're not missing out by only being able to plane gaoun.
