Info and opinions around arms lore?

[Albini Steve]

So I just wanted to ask the crafting community a bit about arms lore - have you noticed a big difference in the items you produce when arms lore is not at 100 yet, when It is at 100, and/or when it is past 100? Also - I bought a +20 arms lore PS (not cheap!) but can't seem to make any gains by just using the skill, is it elixir only past 100?

Yes, it's elixier only past 100 and...unfortunately for you...there really isn't much of a benefit to go above 100 on this shard.

I did the same... I'm going to use a +20 skill ball on it but I don't think it'll do much after seeing what others have said.

I am certain that GMs have said that any skill where the PS is not available through champs and only via PS bag (e.g. poisoning and arms lore being 2 examples) you won't see any difference between GM and 120. Hiding seems to be the exception here where you can apparently hide while right next to an enemy at 120. Maybe things will be changed one day. Tracking was one that has been changed recently and that scroll is now available through champs.
