The Scholar: "Perhaps the most mysterious of the professions, the Scholar collects fragments of lost lore, and attempts to interpret their secrets. In doing so, he can produce scrolls that other craftsmen can read to improve their chances of producing a superior product. They can craft Mysterious Tomes that assist Loremasters. They can create scrolls that can buff your fellowship. And finally, they can make potions that allow you to heal while in combat." The following Guide is a compilation of my time as a Supreme Master Scholar, as well as the contributions of fellow LOTRO community members. It is updated frequently. Enjoy.
FAQ:
How do I advance from Apprentice Scholar to higher Levels?
Once you fill in your initial Apprentice experience bar, you will need to talk to any 'Novice Scholar' (Trainer). They will give you a quest to advance. You can find these trainers in most large cities, such as Bree. Once you hit Artisan, you will need to speak to the Expert Scholar in Rivendell.
What is the "Mastery Item"? Each rank of crafting has two levels. You must first grind crafting experience to gain proficiency in that level. Then you grind an additional level to gain full Mastery of it. Once you hit Master of that Rank, you will open up new crafting options. You will then have a small chance (normally 5-10%) of crafting this 'Mastery Version'. However, if you provide the Mastery item listed, you will generally gain a +44% bonus chance of actually crafting it. These percentages will stack with the particular Scholar tool you are using, which Metalsmiths can craft. These tools range from +1% to +20% bonuses. Below is a list of tools. Also, you will notice the Crafting Scrolls we craft. These stack with all the other percentages.
How do Dyes work?
Simple. A Dye potion is usable by anyone. It's a consumable of sorts. You simply obtain the Dye of your choice, either from a scholar crafting one, or purchasing one from the Auction House. You double-click the Dye, then click the piece of armor or clothing you wish to color. They are one time use only. Once you've dyed a piece, you can remove that color dye, or you can redye it another color.
How long do Crafting Scrolls last?
I believe crafting scrolls last for 60 seconds.
Where can I find the Quest Items?
In the last section of the guide, there is a list of all quest items, with their Locations. Type ;loc to see your current location.

mastery is when you master a Tier/level in crafting you're able to add trophys to items (5% chance to make it ) to improve some part of the item crafted.
for weapons it's added dps.
I'm still looking for a Metalsmith to provide the materials and stats on Scholar Tools. I will add them to the main post, with a credit to your name and server. Thanks!

[Huge Worm Eyes] only drop from higher level worms. These can be found as early as North Downs, but are more common from Trollshaws, Misty Mountains, and Angmar.

Wow, even for the lower level crit ingredients? Interesting.
Well that sort of stinks, looks like I will hold off on creating some of these Dye's. I'd hate to get just one when I could have a better chance at getting 3.
If you are a Metalsmith, please post below ingredients and stats of Scholar tools. I will gladly add them to this list, with a credit to your name.[/FONT]
