Skill Training / Skill Jewelry Bonus Questions....

[Vexxed]

Ok If someone knows the answer to this....

I know that the fastest way to train combat skills (Swords, Tactics, Anatomy etc) is to fight an opponent with EQUAL skill. What I'm not sure about is how skill increase jewelry effects this. If I'm at 60( REAL) Swords / Tac / Anatomy &I have +10 to each of those skills from skill jewelry is the most effective way to gain to fight a opponent with 60 OR 70 skills???

THX.

The check for skill is based on total skill... including all jewelry and armor.

I believe 70.

Most of my experience in this subject is from golem beating. I know that if your skill is not close enough to your opponent, you won;t gain at all. For example whenever I've worked a melee skill, I buy 40 from the npc, train to 50 off NH quests, but even that's not enough initially to gain when hitting a golem with around 90 weapon skill (same with Tactics). So I have to throw on a few pieces of jewelry with usually +13 on each piece to raise those skills up to 76ish in order to gain, then slowly lose the jewelry as I gain those skills.
