Skills

The skill system that was introduced in April 2023 contains 11 skills.

Every skill can be levelled by performing the corresponding activity. The maximum level for each skill is 20. Some professions grant a bonus to the XP gained for their corresponding skill, and XP boosters can increase the XP gain further. Higher levels unlock benefits for the corresponding activity.

Your current skill levels can be checked via the playermenu or in the User-Panel.
