This may be a silly question. I have a 67 mage with my Quill in spell research,
my skill lvl is 346 with the quill. I have decided to make some more spells (higher lv's) but the trivia is up around 480 on some. Is there some new skill cap other than 300 + equipment to increase my skill lvl. It get's real expensive when you fail on some of these spells. Thanks in advance for any help.

Higher rank spells are supposed to be that way,but then again you can max all those tradeskill-related AA to decrease the cose of failure.
I am not sure what level it becomes available but the AA Arcane Tongues reduces the failure rate by up to 50pct when maxed. I have this maxed and my failure rate is really pretty low, except for some reason it always seems to fail on the most hard to come by Sooty Fine Runic Vellum.
Salavge AA gives a change to return used components on a failure, but, the RNG has only ever given me cheap ink back and not papers :)
As a side note Dev Ngreth has explained that the trivial has to be set so high to give ANY reasonable chance of failure at all simple because of the Arcane Toungues AA.
If you play with the calculor on EQtraders you will see what a difference this can make, I am not sure what you are seeing with a 480 trivial (Id be interested to know though) but with Max AT at this trivial the success change rises from 36.5% to 68.25%. At the more common 416ish trivials it goes from 84.5% to 92.25%.
Other than that then no there is no way to raise the skill cap any higher!

I'd not worry overmuch about it, lol. My chanter is my researcher, doesn't have his quill, his skill sits around 250 or so, might be sitting on 250. and he succeeds 8/10 tries on trivials in the 380-400 region. At nearly 100 higher than him you shouldn't fail too often. o_O I do have Arcane Tongues (available at 59) and Salvage maxed. Unlike the third poster I've had it return my papers 2-3 times but yes it mostly returns inks and quills.
