Player's Skills

Player skills are divided in normal, favoured and expert skills:

Normal:

  • Can grind up to rank 10.

Favoured:

  • Can grind up to rank 15 in most skills.
  • Earn proficiency twice as fast than normal skills.

Expert:

  • Can grind up to rank 16 in most cases. 
  • Earn proficiency twice as fast than normal skills.
  • Get an extra +1 rank.

Switching between the skills and jobs

If you have a skill with rank above 10 (Favoured / expert) and switch to a job that has the skill as normal, your skill rank will be capped at rank 10. 

When you switch back to a job that has it as favoured / expert you will get the same rank as you had before the capping. So don't worry about switching jobs beyond the fee you pay (Which can cost millions of ducats).

For more information on jobs check my jobs' guide.
