I just think this was bad luck. My experiences in this level range (and those of other posters in this thread) indicate this is a very valid skillup path. It's true those first couple levels are a bit rough but with advanced synth support (+3 skill) you're within 8 levels, which ought to get you at least around a 20% success rate.

Hence why it's such an often recommended path.

Just be glad you don't have to go any higher on Woodworking. Things get a lot uglier above 59.

It's not "that" expensive to level, but the materials are sometimes nightmarishly hard to acquire in any quantity.
