[Tinkering] for anyone who was wondering

I didn't know, so I had to check it out. Yes, an arms lore check is made when crafting the gargish earrings or necklace. So there's a couple more cheap items to make in building skill in both tinkering and arms lore.

* Gargish Earrings -- 55.0 base skill, 3 ingots
* Gargish Necklace -- 60.0 base skill, 3 ingots

Does arms lore give a bonus when making these, as we get for armor and weapons?

Yes, Arms Lore adds to the attributes. My craftsman's Arms Lore is currently at 64.6, and her Tinkering is at 92.5. Here are stats off two necklaces she just made:

Plain Gargish Necklace
* Physical Resist: 1
* Fire Resist: 2
* Cold Resist: 2
* Poison Resist: 2
* Energy Resist: 3 (total 10)

Exceptional Gargish Necklace
* Physical Resist: 4
* Fire Resist: 4
* Cold Resist: 4
* Poison Resist: 10
* Energy Resist: 6 (total 28)

It appears that the exceptional bonus adds 15 attribute points, and her journeyman-level Arms Lore added 3 more. It will be 5 when she achieves GM Arms Lore.
