When does it give skill points?
- Orange 165 to 189: a point on every craft
- Yellow 190 to 209: a point most of the time
- Green 210 to 229: a point now and then
- Grey from 230: no more points
Classic rule: 100% while orange, then the chance falls evenly to 0 at grey. Green sits halfway between yellow and grey, as in Classic.
Average cost of a point: 24s 64c while orange, 49s 28c at the green threshold.
