Suggestion for a new skill

Name Options: (Meld/Connect/Merge)

Use: Connect <object 1> <object 2>

What it would do: This skill would be take two spellcomps gotten either from the thief tinkering skill (or even any elemental  and make a higher level and possibly more stable (think longer timer or no timer at all) higher level.  The level iwincrease could be similar to that of soulforge for soulstones: Two level 40 comps wouldn't make a level 80, probably closer to 45..  Their could either be generic items given out (like soulstones) or we could have recipes using only thief tinkering comps (More of a PITA to do, but bigger potential gain down the road).

Why we need this skill:  Thieves generally need multiple grenades in order to take down any mob worth going through the resource expense and time effort of constructing grenades.  This leads to the immediate thwacker kicking in to make items available via shopkeeper difficult to nigh impossible to shoplift.  While builders are trying to add more, and invariably higher level, spellcomps in their areas, the spellcomps will inevitably become a victim of the thwacker control in place.  This skill would allow for thieves to stock up on
spellcomps and be able to forge higher level comps similar to what necros are able to do with soulstones via the soulforge spell.  It should alleviate some of the difficulties for lower level thieves to acquire worthwhile grenade spellcomps as well. In addition, quests requiring completion of recipes could be instituted.
