How did this go from a topic about a science skill to level science beyond 105 to cortosis and how imms cheat?
Massive derailing… bad people bad!

How did it get here?
Need more science skills > Shouldn’t that be an engy skill? > Too many engy skills> Get rid of worthless engy skills > Imbue is a worthless engy skill > Imbue isn’t worthless, it’s just never used > It’s never used because it’s used for twinkery > The twinkery isn’t inherent, it’s due to immhax > LAWLOMFG ALL U DO IS ACCUZE US OF IMMHAX LOLOLOL!
Back to the sorta-topic. I can see getting rid of imbue and if cortosis is ever used, change it to being one of the sorts of durasteel that give different bonuses when you make stuff. Because it’s not around enough to justify having a skill to paint it on to things, but the idea of cortosis shouldn’t completely fade from existence.
The proposed know-essence skill should, in my opinion, be 100ish level science. Most engy types have that much science anyway or know someone who does.

In response to the science vs. engineering debate, I’d say it’s engineering levels that allow a player to assemble items, but science levels that allow a player to control the quality of said item. A level 150 engineer who hasn’t even finished pondering yet is not going to make good items, so I don’t think the "engineers make it, they ought to be able to tell how good the materials are" argument holds much water. This makes sense as a science skill, if it’s going to be implemented at all.

Show me an engineering major who takes no science and I’ll show you a school with a low ranked engineering program.
IE: I agree with Kora.
