I went to Butcherblock & picked up transmuting. I'm a level 28 Necro w/ Scribe of level 22. Since I was in the area, I visited Greater Faydark & did quests from level 1 up. When I got an item reward, I transmuted it. I got to about level 11 items when the red lettering said "Must be 15 in Transmuting skill to transmute item". I had 14 in transmute. I haven't since found an item I can transmute. They'll all too high level for 14. How do I advance trnsmuting now?
I also don't get the crafting part of transmuting, even though I looked at the FAQ. I've run into adornments while crafting. I assumed that transmuters disenchanted to components and tinkerers made adornments. Do transmuters make the adornments? What do tinkerers make? The documentation that came with the expansions sucks, so I have a lot of stupid questions.
