What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: no idea. I keep skinning and mining. No increase
My mining skill aptitude seems to be going up again. But my skinning aptitude still doesn’t go up despite repeatedly skinning animals in various levels and receiving XP per skinning activity.
My tracking and skinning moved - it seems that the problem is that the amount of XP needed for skinning and tracking to get 1 aptitude move is significantly higher than for my mining skill or other trade skills it seems. So you can keep skinning animals and it appears that it isnt moving at all. But in reality, it is moving very very slowly that it isnt noticeable at all unless you keep skinning the highest tier animals only
Same with me for skinning. I hit the first aptitude and stopped. I’ve since gotten another chest, but it still shows as only one, and I had a one-star chest to accompany it. Also, as said prior, the skinning experience is extremely high to get to the next level.
Mine finally moved yesterday. The weird thing is, I’ve killed high point things and no movement. Then yesterday, I killed higher things (the lions in Edenwood). I noticed it move for the first time in a while. I left aand went to Everfall and suddenly, the level 15 wolves were giving small movements and gain. I have no idea why but knowing this might help figure out the bug.
Seeing the same thing. Hit 200 skinning today in Mourningdale; continued to skin many bison there for >1k xp per, but there’s no movement towards aptitude lvl 1.
