Skills

You can master many combat skills in this game. Some of the skills require certain Tasks to unlock them. For example, you need to build a Temple to get the "Healing" skill.

The majority of the skills consume Concentration points in combat, except the most basic skill "Strike" which gives Concentration instead.

Each time you advance a player's level, you receive 1 Skill Point. Also you can get 1 Skill Point from a Rune Obelisk. You may upgrade your skills with Skill Points. Upgrading a skill most often requires only 1 Skill Point, but occaionally it may take more. Upgrading often increases a skill's power or decreases its concentration consumption.

Combat Skills

 * Skill Point (SP): On rare occasions, you may need more than 1 Skill Point to upgrade a skill. For example, the 4th and 5th upgrades for the "Sharpening" skill each requires 2 Skill Points, and that is displayed as "4th & 5th: 2 SP" in parentheses below following the name of the skill.
 * Concentration: A bonus in parentheses is NOT added to the player's Concentration, instead it decreases the required Concentration consumption.
