How to set skills

DeletedUser38711

Is there someone that can explain what each skill is for and therefore how to set them properly? Or is there a link or a guide that explains what each skill is for?

That list will tell you most of what you need to know, but it's a little outdated given some of the changes to duel and fort formulas in the years since that page was written.

Essentially:
  • Aim, dodging, appearance, tactics, shooting, vigour, reflex and toughness are used in duels. There's a Wiki page dedicated to duelling that explains this in more detail; this section in particular.
  • Leadership, aim, dodging, hiding and setting traps are used in fort battles. This section of the fort battle Wiki page explains them pretty comprehensively.
  • Health points, as the name suggests, increases your total HP which you can see above your energy bar. It's the most useful skill in fort battles (see the page linked above), and also comes in handy when duelling in terms of not getting knocked out by other players.
  • Horseback riding helps you move faster on the map when you've got a mount equipped, but you'll find that it will hardly make a difference compared to direct speed bonuses from clothing. Don't waste points here just to try and move faster.
  • Construction, apart from being used for a number of construction-based jobs on the map, is also the main skill needed when working on town buildings. It'll increase your labour points for town construction, which will let you add more points per hour to each building.
  • All the skills not mentioned (stamina, swimming, fine motor skills, repairing, trading and animal instinct) are only used for earning labour points towards various jobs on the map. Some of these - such as trading - give labour points towards some useful high level jobs, while others are pretty useless since you'll get all the LP you need from gear.
