Protégé training past 100?

Ginneon Thursday Posts: 265 10/23/2014	Does anyone knows if stat-reducing gear (like a talkative rattus faber) allows a protégé to train a stat past 100? I'm sure it must have been discussed elsewhere, but I can't seem to find the answer. -- Ginneon Thursday: Revelrous Professor of Benthic Departments of Mycoenology, Lepidoptery

I didn't think to check if stat gear made a difference. I would assume it doesn't, but I don't actually know. -- http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/profile/Eris~Jay http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/profile/Red~Rose

Note that you'll have to equip the companion when you're sent an invite too, so it requires a little co-ordination. -- Possibly returned after a long hiatus. Please do not send live rats or tournament requests.
