Skills[]
|
In this section we will cover a the basics of skills. The following information has been taken from the Player's Guide located at www.ashenempires.com  Do you wish to duel monsters in close combat or stay in quiet quarters practicing the art of leatherworking? There's something for every taste in Ashen Empires. Whether you are drawn by the whiz of arrows or the thrill of discovering new alchemical compounds, you can choose from a variety of skills to craft a unique character. 1.) Learning Skills[]There is no limit to the number of skills you can learn. You just have to know how to begin training them. Check the Skill Guide for info on how to begin leveling skills. As a new player on Valinor, speak to all of the tutors in the main hall. They will give you basic items for free to help you get started. 2.) Leveling Skills[]As you discover and use skills you will gain experience in them. Leveling a combat skill often translates to more damage dealt with that weapon (STR and DEX attribute determines chance to hit and to hit damage). Higher level tradeskills allow you to either craft more powerful and useful items, or have a better chance of crafting more high quality products. If you choose to take a break from manually learning skills, try and find quests around the land. Some quests may give you a large amount of experience towards a given skill. 3.) Experience Pool[] Experience Pool(epool) is something you can receive as a quest reward. You can spend it towards non-maxed Combat skills. The amount of epool you can spend is shown at the bottom of the Skill window. Press the [+] sign next to a non-maxed combat skill, which will bring up an entry box. Enter how much epool you want to apply towards that skill. 4.) Task Masters[]Task Masters give you crafting tasks for excellent experience! You must have a VIP membership and be level 10 in their tradeskill to work for a Task Master.
There aren't Task Masters for every trade skill. Below is a list of Task Masters; the picture to the right shows where they can be found in Lotor's Summer Palace. You can learn more about trade skills Here. 
5.) Bonus to Skills[] You can get bonuses to skills from equipment and from your race. Your "bonus" levels will be shown in green to the right of the total skill level. The Orc Mining Helm pictured to the left gives you 15 bonus levels to the Mining skill while it's equipped! Also, pay attention to your chat window and cursor. When you click on a skill item it will often direct you on how to use it. For example, click a piece of raw snake meat. It will ask you which oven you'd like to use it on.
6.) Advanced Skills[]Advanced Skills are available if you have purchased the Talazar's Revenge expansion. To gain an advanced skill, first speak with the Trainer of that skill. It costs 250,000 gold to learn the skill and can only be leveled using experience pool and experience earned from Knight of Chaos quests.
7.) 106-110 Bonus Skills[] Once you reach level 106 you will have a unique skill available to you. You can choose between 3 different skills for each level starting from level 106. You can only select 1 skill per level and is permanent unless you purchase a advanced skill reset from the Store, see The Store for more information. To learn a skill you must talk to the Advanced Skills Trainer located in North East corner of the Castle in LSP. He will tell you that you have a skill available and will list each skill, there will be a confirmation before finalizing the skill you wish to learn. Bellow is a description of all the skills available.
