I have been training up a new imbuer.... because I can.
I figured this time I would test the limits of how far you can advance the skill through unravelling. I have unravelled about 50K oak boards and it appears to be capping out at 77.8 skill on a 120 capped toon. Has anyone gotten higher unravelling weapons made of oak? I am doing bows atm.
I am going to let it go through a few 1000 more oak and then switch to ash and see if that does anything. Then yew...
15,000 boards in I think its safe to say that Ash does nothing to advance you past 77.8 Skill. Now to try Yew....
2,000 boards into Yew and I was able to add another half point to 78.3. Skill then did not move for almost 10,000 boards, then it advanced to 78.6 from 10,000 to 15,000 yew and stopped again. I ran another 10,000 yew and it didn'tmove. Cap for yew appears to be 78.6.
I will try bloodwood next. What we have so far is
Wood Max Gain
Oak 77.8
Ash No gain above Oak
Yew 78.6

I looked back at my numbers from about 6 months ago and these where the same numbers that I had also Paul. Just to make sure everyone knows this. These numbers where gotten by eating a 120 imbue scroll before starting this test. Was also able to get a little more out of using bloodwood after using the yew.

Good info.
Seems like it was cheaper and possibly quicker to switch to the imbuing trainer after oak gains run out to be honest. I gained to over 90 from 74.8 in only a couple of hours running the script and consumed very few resources by that point in comparison. Personally, if I were to make another imbuer and I already have tens of thousands of residue, I don't know if I would bother running the residue maker at all.

I went non-standard and crafted using low end Bowcraft and Saw runics for unraveling. Worked well to the 80's.

I got to 81 with no materials used. I had placed a keep on LA, so I camped swoops with my vamp till I had almost 3K items. Then I unravelled by recalling to queens forge. Rinse and repeat until gains stopped. This also got me my 120 scroll by the time I hit 75 skill.
Why queens forge? I reasoned that the bonus given to unravel, thus possible loss to max gains, did not outweigh the importance of max materials gained.
Not a method for everyone, due to space requirements and time involved. But you could piecemeal it. A new player could also run XIIOver's miner in ter mur, and by the time they were at 80, SHOULD have enough mined gems to continue for free.
