Book question

[Sikker]

Hello, just have a quick question about books.
What happens if you for example have 10 leadership, and then you read the book that gives +1 leadership? Will it go to 11 or is the book just wasted?
And what about those other books that just need to be in your inventory, can they bring your skills over the maximum?

I didn't even know there was a maximum.

You will go to 11 AFAIK. The bonuses for those skill levels apply for most skills, Inventory Management doesn't work though. Keep in mind, the books that give you 1+ don't actually give you a floating 1+ so if you read them before getting to 10 in a skill you won't be able to get to 11 if that's possible.

There's a hardcoded cap at 15 in any case so you can't go above that.

Max is 10. The book is wasted if you are already 10.

Uhm, one reply contradicts the other, could anyone confirm which one is true?
Thanks

This statement is true.

You could always change the max of 10 to 15 (which is the real Max cap but isn't used) with MBtweak.

Which one will you believe an elf albeit bit dark? or someone who is critically ashamed because of something that he/she did?

It's the name of an album >.<  Albeit that's a good point :L

Also; DarkElf might be right =/  I do know the 11-15 range for skills have effects but come to think of it the book mightn't boost above 10. It's been a bit since I tested it and my memory is something to be ashamed of.

Max is 10 unless you tweak the game, therefore reading it when your skill is already at 10 is a waste.
