Akimo, I believe you are mistaken, personally. Back when those mistletoe sickles came out for the protection of the cabbage stuff (oh, four years ago) I was the ONLY 250 smith on my server for live, because at that time the only thing you could make was fine plate and a bunch of other useless items. Them boogers cost a buttload to make! It's been quite awhile, but if I remember right, I could expect a cost somewhere in the range of 1 to 2K incurred from buying the parts off of vendors per successful sickle. Without that charisma gear, I would've been paying 300 or 400 more, most likely. That's a lot of dough through the time when I made about 300 of 'em. 90K? Yeah...made a ton of dough doing that though, had about 250K in the bank rot and about 500K worth of crud on my characters when I quit EQ...people bought 'em like hotcakes for 20K on Veeshan...
Anyways, just my point that charisma DOES make a difference. And I loved it to death, since I was a person with all his tradeskills maxxed out to 200 and the specialized one maxxed to 250. I likely saved 150K over my two years of gaming from my gross amount of charisma gear.
And yeah, I remember there being a top cap at 120, if I remember right...just couldn't remember if there was a bottom one, since my Iksar had 60 to start in the first place.
