/ Introduction /
Skills are a major feature of the game that will determine the way of living of your character, or the end of a fight : they set physical upsides to your character, besides material advantage and your veterance, knowledge, and strategy in the game.

Skills points can be acquired by spending Experience onto the ones you chosed. The bonus is immediate, and won't decrease over time.

Notes :
- Experience gained will be twiced if you play on Gold servers (Gold Upgrade required).
- Prices are halved for skills that are in your skillset.
- Percentages are compared to the base value, when no experience was spent in the skill.
- On death, 1 point is lost per skill if it were at level 1/2/3/4 and 2 points if it were at level 5/6/7, except in the skillset chosen, in which every skill is kept intact.

To find any skill, press CTRL + F (⌘ + F on Mac) and enter the skill you are looking for.

Note that some of these may be incorrect because of new updates or in general...
This project is mostly finished and should be correct !
Feedback is always appreciated !

I have a question. When I spawn in with the skill Police Officer, does that mean those skills will be cheaper for me, or are all my skills cheaper bc I own Gold..?
Glorwyn 29 Apr, 2017 @ 6:38am 
So I have a question: If you see the random ability, does that mean its currently the one you have? Or do you have to click on it?
