Skills

Your character can learn several Skills to influence his or her effectiveness in the world as a warrior, a craftsman, or otherwise. Upon character creation, a player can select up to four Skills to enter the world with (4 skills, with a 30 point limit per Skill at creation....total of 120 Skill Points on creation).

Upon entering the world, a player can proceed to the Skill Trainer NPC in order to purchase Skill Books, which will allow progression of a Skill to 30 points.

While it is possible to train as many skills as you would like, there is a Skill Cap of 700 Skill Points.

Training a Skill through use is the only way to reach 100 points in the Skill. Most skills will gain through regular use and playtime (such as raising Swordsmanship while attacking a creature with a sword), though some require activation through direct use of the skill (such as Hiding or Animal Taming).
