Notes: The above applies only to the MAXIMUM level a person can attain in a tradeskill. For instance, a halforc barbarian can be:
Smelting: Base 10 Race: +5 Class: +5 Total: Max lvl 20
Scribing: Base 10 Race: -5 Class: -10 Total: Max lvl 0 (Cannot levelup in this tradeskill).
Additional proposals:
Maximum level in tradeskills cannot be higher then your character level.
Scribing: Requires Scribe Scroll feat.
Alchemy: Make base potions which requires a spell to be cast into the potion (IE requires a caster to complete the potion).
