Skinning: Rank vs mob level formula?

[scorpious1109]

What's the formula for determining what level mobs you can skin based on your rank? Lord help me I can never remember.

Isn't it a mob level per 5 levels? 15 in expansions probably.

[Serissa]

max mob level = your skill / 5

enchants and items "+X to skinning" counts

Just divide your skinning level by 5 and you will have the level of the mob you can skin.

Ty, I also found this: (and saw how I was getting confused by early ranks)

Skinning skill required is:
1 for level 1-10 mobs.
(10 times mob level) minus 100 for level 11-20 mobs.
5 times level for level 21-73 mobs.
Wrath of the Lich King - Requires 5-point skill increases per mob level up to 73. Requires 10-point skill increases from 74-80.
Cataclysm - Requires 5-point skill increases per mob level from 80-83. Requires 20-point skill increases from 83+.
