    Check 'em. Recipe levels used to go up to 70-75, now they go up to 90-100.

    Okay, now that you've had your heart attack, here's the good news: This is actual skill level, not the "proficiency" level which confused almost everybody. The craftable Greenhouse Four-Story Row Home that was carpentry proficiency 75 (level 113, or level 98 on a +5 table) is now Level 100. I have confirmed that I can make one with 100 Carpentry on a regular table.

    I think this is a good idea, not only because it removes a source of confusion, but because there were two non-linear functions stacked together: higher skill level takes more XP, and proficiency level went up more slowly at higher skill levels. I think it also means that +skill items aren't quite as godly at higher levels as they used to be, but that should be offset by skill levels being easier to reach.

    But it does mean that those of us who were keeping track of recipe levels will have to start all over again, woot!
