Inscription Question

My inscription is stuck at 60. I did not choose the quest path with this mage.

Magery and meditation are both at 100 and eval is at 51.2.

 

Is inscription tied to another skill? Is there something I need to do to move past 60?

    Did you try doing BODs?

    Keep casting spells or use eval on NPCs to raise eval.

    Have use the skill to get gains using that method.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Thanks. Yes, I tried BODs and it didn't raise beyond 60. When it stopped at 60 my eval was in the low 40's. I can try raising it more this evening and see if that helps.

    Well I raised my evaluate intelligence to 59.6, then got a 1 point increase and it got stuck at 60.6. My inscription will not increase past 60 and eval won’t go past 60.6. I have plenty of available skill points. 

    my character is on the divergent path. I shouldn’t need quests, correct? Is there something I need to do to move past this or is there a glitch in my character.

    I requested a GM in game, but waited around 1.5 hours without a response. I had to log out.

    Does anyone know why this is happening?

    A GM will have to take a look at your character in game, I do apologize if the GM was unable to see you at that time. I know they're quite busy as of late.

    Thank you both.

    Unfortunately it was pointless. I finally got a GM to look at my character and they couldn’t find anything wrong. I got a nonsense response of keep training because gains slow down. If it hasn’t changed in a week, page again. I guess making close to a 100 recall scrolls, plus many others, without a single gain is normal. Spending hours casting spells on monsters isn’t enough.

    my character is glitched and I’m not deleting this one and doing it over again to maybe have it glitch too. This is ridiculous. I’m not able to do what I want to do with it now.

    What are you fighting in the hope of getting gains? My char is not on divergent, but did get the odd inscription game during fights.

    I understand it to be you must do damage on a monster that dies to gain ?

    See if you are making the right spells for your level.

    I decided to hunt something a bit tougher so I hunted some water elementals and sea serpents. I killed a few and got two skill gains on inscription, which was the first time that ever happened for me. Then the gains stopped. Nothing on eval int.

    The highest circle scrolls I can do is four. I need seventy skill points to make fifth circle scrolls. I tried doing more recall scrolls and no gains. 

    I should be able to gain making scrolls. I mean, that’s what the skill is primarily for.

    I don't think that applies to NL @Pawain You can't write 8th circle at all.

    @Baratoz water eles and sea serps aren't really that tough at GM mage. Try upping your game a little bit more? Daemons in the hedge maze might help, or drakes/wyvern in Destard.  I'd dodge the dragons in there though.

    Are 8th circle on drops only from bosses or can you get any 8th level for turning in bods?

    Is it like alchemy where deadly poison can't be crafted but it's a bod reward?
