So far the following skills can be raised from 100 to 120 without elixirs/skillballs:

Snooping
Taste Identification

That makes me believe multiple of the others will also raise just fine. As Durocious said, Forensic ID and Hiding can be done sans skillballs/elixiers.

That's great news, thanks for the updates!

unless colibri made changes to hiding im absolutely 100% sure it cannot be raised past 100 without skillball or elixiers. i do think forensic can be raised without extras but cant say for sure its been so long since i did it.

Current progress:


Everything else not shown is at 120/130 already.
I've managed to get the Disarming (Remove Trap), Arms Lore and Poisoning PS's from player vendors, for a fair price. I used my PS of choices on the rest. I won another PS of my choice today which I used on herding. I have been herding (the same way I got to 100) for half an hour with no gains, so I am thinking it's going to be skill balls/elixirs. Same with Arms Lore, it won't gain. Remove Trap seems to have frozen on 80. Do I need to go and do dungeon or prisoner chests to get gains in Remove Trap now?

Not too many more to do...

If anyone has a good strategy to get provocation to 120, I'd love to know it. Also, what's the fastest way to raise mining?

With hard work, sweat and blisters on hands If you don't have enough essences.

U can raise Hiding for sure with only using the skill. I did it not long ago. Remove Trap is a b*. Im at 81,3 and get not really gains. Hardest skill on the shard. The easiest way to raise mining is, melt the ore one by one.

For provocation, see this thread

Are you sure you can raise hiding from 100 to 120 just using the skill? Getting the 120 hiding PS is not easy to do....

Thanks for the tip about mining

Thanks for that Melkor, working nicely for me at the moment.

There are no Hiding PSs. I would go for a 120 hiding. I purchased mine from someone who had a limitless PS bag. Cost a few million I think.

That was the point of my comment I was just letting Nayra know that. This whole thread is about powerscrolls that don't drop normally and raising those "special" skills.

I've been farming Kronus recently for the PS bags to try and jag a 120 Hiding. So far no luck in 3 rolls and I'm out of non-crafting 115s... Speaking of which... I bought all your 115's Praise (great prices), please put more on the vendor , that's what's slowing me down using the rest of the PS bags.

Hmm i have 120 hiding. Bought a scroll from Cameron Majere. From where he got it, i dont know. I just used the skill never bought a Skill Ball. I got it really cheap, I think it was 500k.
