When does it give skill points?

150205
  • Orange 150 to 169: a point on every craft
  • Yellow 170 to 179: a point most of the time
  • Green 180 to 189: a point now and then
  • Grey from 190: 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: 2g 71s 90c while orange, 5g 43s 80c at the green threshold.
