You know, when you craft faster, you will finish the object faster too, and for the most crafting things this means less XP.
With the skill degeneration, unless you have realy alot of resources, you will have it harder to reach skill 20.
I mosttimes wait until my crafter rech skill 20 before i install him bionic arms (and spine from other mod).
i do have a mod that adds trainmat, a material to train crafting at all, thank you for this but hopefully it wont be a problem! Happy New Year!
Despite having worked closely with stats, I have never noticed that sculpting, tailoring and smithing are not influenced by crafting skill. This is one of the easier request. Easily achieved with xpath patch insertion.
Edit*
I am currently working on the mod, hopefully this will be quick one.
Okay! Happy New Year and thanks!
