Wishmaster Relic(s)
I'm assuming the genie lamp event only happens once, so I'm curious which relic is ultimately the best to go with.
Muscle +1 / Guts +1
Psyche +1 / Perception +1
Tech +50 / Science +50 / Lowest Skill +50
Highest Skill +50
$X Combonds (didn't check the amount)

I have a feeling that the Tech/Science/Lowest Skill might be the best one, with the assumption that ALL skills that are /equally the lowest/ will get a +50 boost (meaning a fully maxed char will get +50 to everything, and then maybe also another +50 to Tech/Science).

Does anyone have any info on this? I'm curious, and will be going with the Tech/Science/Lowest Skill relic choice. I'm using a Everything 7/Brains 15 build, so I'm not really concerned about stat boosts (especially with all of the drugs readily available).

For the Wishmaster relics, i think the Bonus for skill are very good early game, but later at level 40+, this relic become pointless. Maximum is 150 points and with some book you can earn a temporary boost, so at level 40+ every relics that increase stats are better in my eye, especialy for a solo run.

You don't understand what I was getting at (or simply skimmed over my post). Temp skill books are entirely irrelevant to the point of this post, because it's not about trying to hit a particular skill level to pass any certain skill check.

As I stated: It's specifically because everything caps at 150 that I'm checking the relic I took, to see if maxing /everything/ will apply the Lowest Skill +50 to /everything/ (while wondering if Tech/Science would also get another +50 on top of that).

Ultimately I'm not going to miss out on anything by not having the +1/+1 stat boosts, as my stats are all 7 (Brains 15) as I stated. This isn't including any stat gains unlocked from leveling particular skills, let alone the option of using drugs if needed (as already stated).

Tested with All skill at 150 using cheat tool and the latest version from gog build 1.3.1517.1645:

RELIC #16475-D/"WISHMASTER"
Contraptions + 30

Highest skill +30

Results: only the +30 contraptions go up from 150/150 to 180/150

RELIC #16475-C/"WISHMASTER"
(empty space)+50
Tech +50
Science +50

Science +50
Tech +50
Lowest skill +50

Results: only +50 to tech and science that go up to 200/150 for both nothing more

Final results: Both Highest skill bonus and lowest skill bonus are bugged or need at least one skill that are perhaps lower than 150 to work? In both cases, unfortunaly both relic are not really good.

Edit 1: Tested with half skills at 149/150 and the other half with 150/150, same results the bonus is bugged in the gog version and probably similar for steam.

Edit 2: nothing to do with the relics, but my fatigue go up by +7.5 per hour by having 149 skill points or less in heavy weapons, increasing at 150 point make it at -7.5 per hour so i no longer gain fatigue and don't need to sleep anymore.
