Main article: Skills

Darkfall, unlike other MMORPG's ( Massively Multiplayer Roleplaying game), has no leveling system, and instead has skill based character advancement. The number of available skills in the game is going to number between 500 and 1000. New skills or spells are learned from NPCs.

It is also worth noting that some skills have prerequisites.

For instance, you may need to learn the archery skill to a certain level before you are able to pick up the sharpshooter or spirited archer skills. Or you may need to have your wisdom stat at a certain level before being able to pick up the maintenance skill. Some skills will require having a skill and a spell above a certain level. This will increase the challenge in obtaining certain skills.

All characters start with basic skills that allow them to get their start in the game, however to progress, players will need to train new skills. An untrained skill does not have any points. A trained skill ranges from 1 point (new) to 100 points (maximum). As you practice a skill your ability with it will increase over time. If you routinely cast the same spell, your skill with that school of magic will increase, and if you swing a sword a lot, then your sword skill will increase.

Once skills reach a point higher than 75, they will begin to decay, or lessen, over time. To maintain your skills above 75, they will need routine use.
