Skill Overview & Mechanics
Tinkering is used to create various tools from metal (ingots). Use tinker's tools to open the Tinkering Trade Gump. Tinkering, Blacksmithing, Tailoring, and Carpentry can be used in conjunction to make many items.
Gideon's Advice: Tinkering is somewhat expensive to raise. It is also quite useful if you're starting out because you can craft shovels from the ingots you're making to keep your weight low while mining.
From Wodan (optimal):
32.0 - 33.2 SHOWN SKILL = 160 Ingots Tinker Tools
33.2 - 42.7 SHOWN SKILL = 500 Ingots Hammer
42.7 - 66.7 SHOWN SKILL = 2000 Ingots Lockpick
66.7 - 94.0 REAL SKILL = ?? Ingots Lockpicks
94.0 - GM = ?? Ingots Heating Stands
