Thread: FS tailor, skill tapes, and socketing: information needed.
Well, I just got 1 FS assembly skillbox (I finally bothered to turn in some XP) and eagerly went back to the shop to test it out with an order for BE clothes I had. I put on my +20 outfit and then wasted almost an entire crate of tissues just to get 4 sockets on things. Since the only thing that had changed was that I got a skillbox, I dropped FS assembly I and tried to see if everything was fixed. It wasn't. 
I still had some of the lomism polymer I had used for the previous test with skinsuits, so I repeated my previous experiment.
Tactical Skinsuits (+20 skilltape bonus)
2 critical failures.

This is very different from before.

OK. I did a lot of testing tonight and here are the results. I have no FS boxes except for the novice box, which does not give a bonus. I made 50 tactical skinsuits and 50 ribbed shirts both with and without my crafting suit, which has an assembly bonus of +20. My tools are all 15.0 and my crafting station is rated 43. Strangely, this outfit seemed to do nothing for me a few weeks ago (maybe it was a stealth fix?)
