Every Mystavarian is born into the world with an inherent number of
SKILLPOINTS. These skillpoints are used to gain new Major, Minor,
Crafting, and Gathering skills. When you acquire a new skill, it uses
one skillpoint from the corresponding category.
The distribution of skillpoints for each category is as follows:
Major Skills - 2 Skillpoints
Minor Skills - 3 Skillpoints
Crafting Skills - 3 Skillpoints
Gathering Skills - 1 Skillpoint
Those more passionate about artistry and crafting may wish to pursue the
path of the Artisan, redistributing their skillpoints to focus on honing
the arts of craftsmanship - see HELP ARTISAN for more.
Those who find their calling in the fields and forests may instead wish
to pursue the life of the Farmer, redistributing their skillpoints to
focus on self-sufficient gathering - see HELP FARMER for more.
Here is how the skillpoint distribution compares across all three:
+----------+----------+----------+----------+-----------+
| | Major | Minor | Crafting | Gathering |
+----------+----------+----------+----------+-----------+
| Normal | 2 | 3 | 3 | 1 |
| Artisan | 1 | 3 | 5 | 2 |
| Farmer | 1 | 3 | 4 | 3 |
+----------+----------+----------+----------+-----------+
For more comprehensive information about the skills and the processes of
acquiring and learning them, see HELP SKILLS.
