===Parent skills===
Parent skills help the success chance of their sub-skills by a small amount. Using sub-skills increases parent skills as well, although bonuses from the tool (including quality and enchantments) are not applied.
===Characteristics===
Skills can have [[characteristics]] as parent skills. Raising the skill will automatically raise the characteristic, although at a very low rate. As with other parent skills, increase of a characteristic is not affected by bonuses from the tool (including quality and enchantments). A high characteristic help the success chance of all the skills that use that characteristic.
For details on which skills increase which characteristics, see the [[characteristics]] page on the wiki.

Skills are the basic physical, mental, and magical tasks that your character is able to perform. As skills are used, their values will increase. Higher values in skills indicate a better mastery of that specific skill, and will allow you to perform the skill more efficiently and with greater success.
Press F2 to see your skills. Skills help when you perform actions depending on them. When a new character is created all skills start at 1.0. Like characteristics they are limited to 20 if you don't have premium time. If a character was once premium and then loses premium, their skills will drop down to 20 (or remain unchanged if lower than 20); however, you can not raise them above 20 until becoming premium again. ===Parent Skills===Parent skills help the success chance of their sub-skills by a small amount. Using sub-skills increases parent skills as well, although bonuses from the tool (including quality and enchantments) are not applied. ===Characteristics===Skills can have related [[characteristics]]. Raising the skill will automatically raise the characteristic, although at a very low rate. As with other parent skills, increase of a characteristic is not affected by bonuses from the tool (including quality and enchantments). A high characteristic help the success chance of all the skills that use that characteristic. For details on which skills increase which characteristics, see the [[characteristics]] page. ===Titles===Most skills can also give titles when reaching a certain level. The usual level requirements for a title are 50, 70, 90, and 100.

Most actions give skill in a specific pattern: Each action has a chance of giving skill. The chance is determined by the character's skill level, the difficulty of the action and, usually, the quality of the tool being used. The amount depends on the length of the action timer. If the action timer takes twice as long the gain is twice as high too. The amount is also affected by sleep bonus and tool enchantments like [[Circle of cunning]].
For effectively tracking skill gain it is helpful to set the ''Skillgain tab updates'' in the Wurm game settings to ''always''. That way you can monitor how much gain each action gives.

Sweet spot improving is a method of improving (imping) quality way over your skill level and that gives double the skill and attribute gain on top of [[Sleep bonus|Sleep Bonus]] and other skill gain bonuses. The formula to find where sweet spot ql starts at is x*0.77+23.
