I'm trying to do some testing and I don't have time to sit around and train legendary smiths, tailors and bowyers.

So the alternative is making a smelter reaction that pops out the weapons ready made. Problem is reactions don't have a tag for item quality. If the reaction did work, what quality of weapon would it make?

The only thing that has a quality tag on it afaik is the ITEMCORPSE tag, there is a second tag for item quality, 5 for masterwork items which is how iron men and the like leave masterwork statues.

So is it possible at all to make the smelter reactions work that way?

You're probably best off with using Cheat Engine to create legendaries from the embark screen.

If you're unfamiliar with CE, it autoruns a very effective tutorial the first time you use it, so don't be daunted.

A dwarf's untrained/dabbling skill is 0, 20 is legendary, and there is no real upper limit (you could have a dwarf with 100 levels in hammerdwarf).

But does anything past legendary matter?

Actually even legendaries do not produce masterworks 100% of the time.  I assume that since there are divisions for Legendary+ skill levels that they have a game effect (i.e. an increased chance of producing a masterpiece).

quote:For item-crafting purposes, there are actually 21 skill levels, from 0 (dabbling) to 21 (Legendary+5). The skill levels Legendary through Legendary+5 are all shown as Legendary, but are actually separate levels. You can't find out exactly when a dwarf gets to Legendary+5, but it will happen 1000xp before their eighth attribute if they have no other skills, so when they get eight attributes, they are at Legendary+5. Masterpieces happen 15% of the time when Legendary, but 27% of the time when Legendary+5, based off of a random d20 roll. Skill beyond Legendary+5 does not increase the probability of creating a masterpiece item.
