|-
 +
|[[Ranged]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Ranged|Bows and Crossbows]] are the preferred weapon of choice in the [[Archers|Archer's Guild]]. Wood Elves have a natural "Auto-fire" ability where they can automatically fire arrows at surrounding enemies while being on the move. This perk is also gained by joining the [[Archers|archers guild]] and improved by leveling the Ranged skill.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Swords]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Swords]] typically have the word 'sword' in their name, such as "[[Longsword]]," "[[Elven Broadsword]]," "[[Two-Handed Sword]]," etc. Swords are the preferred weapon of the [[Paladins|Paladin's Guild]].
 +
|-
 +
|[[Blunt]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Blunt|Blunt weapons]] are the primary weapon choice in the [[Cavemen|Caveman's Guild]]. Blunt weapons deal smash damage, which is arguably the strongest of the three melee damage types.
  
−
Tanning/Skinning
+
[[Giants]] also have incredible natural strength, allowing them to wield the mighty [[Bonecrusher]]: the most powerful artifact currently in Wyvern, and a [[Blunt|Blunt weapon]].
 +
|-
 +
|[[Blade|Blades]]
 +
|??
 +
|Examples of [[Blade|Blade weapons]] are [[scimitar]], [[cutlass]], [[rapier]], [[falchion]], [[Pocket Knife|pocket knife]], and [[Katana|katanas]]. [[Blade|Blade weapons]] are the weapon type of choice in the [[Ninjas|Ninja's Guild]], a guild that specializes in speed, find-weakness, and the ability to backstab opponents to maximize their damage.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Axe|Axes]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Axe|Axes]] are the preferred weapon of the [[Axemen|Axeman's Guild]] and can do massive amounts of damage. [[Dwarves]] and [[Frost Giants]] have an innate proficiency with Axes.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Unarmed (Skill)|Unarmed]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Unarmed]] is one of the most common skills to train in the [[Monks|Monk's Guild]], but also has value in the [[Ninjas|Ninja's Guild]] and in the [[Cavemen|Caveman's Guild]]. [[Rakshasa]] and [[Naga]] are two races that benefit the most from unarmed. Rakshasa claws get sharper as they level up, and [[Nagas]] can shapeshift into powerful forms with strong bite and claw attacks, such as Dragons and Kalidemons.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Hurled|Hurled]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Hurled|Hurled weapons]] are sometimes used in the [[Ninjas|Ninja's Guild]], and offer a different combat dynamic. With Hurled trained, you can "throw" weapons at enemies to hit for massive amounts of damage. However, you must go pick up the weapons after they hit the enemy, so positioning is key.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Polearm|Polearms]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Polearm|Polearms]] are one of the alternative weapons that can be used in the [[Axemen|Axeman's guild]].
 +
|-
 +
|[[Whip|Whips]]
 +
|??
 +
|There is no Guild currently dedicated to [[Whip|Whips]]. However, [[Mages]] have been known to use the [[Magic Whip]] spell which still relies on the Whips skill.
 +
|-
 +
|[[Staff|Staves]]
 +
|??
 +
|[[Staff|Staves]] are one of the alternative weapons often used in the [[Monks|Monk's Guild]] by races that do not have a natural affinity for unarmed combat, such as [[Rakshasa]] and [[Nagas]].

Skill points are points rewarded to players upon leveling up that can be used to upgrade different skills. To benefit from the skill points earned, they must be invested into a skill through Skill Trainers. Skills are not necessarily permanent--they can be untrained by the Untrainer.

Skill Points

Each race is given a different number of points upon leveling as follows:

Racial Skill Points Per Level
Humans 4
Halflings 4
Dwarves 3
Elves 3
Pixies 3
Nagas 3
Rakshasas 3
Giants 3
Vampires 3.5*
  • Vampires receive 3 skill points every odd level and 4 skill points every even level. Vampires receive 4 skill points every milestone level (25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50).

Skill Point Progression

Skill Point Progression
Level Amount
1 - 25 Full racial points
26 - 29 1
30 Full racial points
31 - 34 1
35 Full racial points
36 - 39 1
40 Full racial points
41 - 44 1
45 Full racial points
46 - 49 1
50 Full racial points
  • At level 50, Humans and Halflings have 140 skill points, Vampires have 128, and every other race has 110.

Training Cost

All skills have a base cost (e.g. 1000g for combat skills). The formula for the cost to train the n-th point of a skill is:

f(n) = BASE COST * n * Multiplier

Skill Training Cost Multiplier

Skills

General Skills

Name Skill Max. Effect Per Level Description Other
Healing No ceiling HP recovered every second = MAX(1, (3 + HealingSkill * 2) / 5) Determines the amount of HP one regains per second Giants (grown size) get MAX(1, (3 + HealingSkill * 4) / 5)

Hydras get MAX(1, (3 + HealingSkill * 3) / 5)

Strength 20 (can go beyond with Guild/gear/magic bonuses) Gives +10% base strength per level Strength stat is a hidden stat that can be view with the enlightenment spell/potion. Each race has their own base strength. Strength increases smash damage by a damage roll proportional to (Strength - 120) * 0.35
Find Weakness 20 (can go beyond with Guild/gear/magic bonuses) For the first ten skill levels, the chances increase by 3%, and then 2% for the next ten levels, and finally 1% for every level after that.

Skill level 5 = 15%, level 10 = 30%, level 20 = 50%, level 30 = 60%

This skill increases your chance to have critical effects upon the enemy

Cost: 1,000g * trained skill level

This affects all damage types, including spells
Meditation No ceiling 1 + (SKILL LEVEL) over 5s Determines the amount of MP one regains per tick Pixies have double the regeneration rate of other races. This is completely unique to Pixies and occurs regardless of Guild
Lore No ceiling Total Lore Points = (Lore + 1)^2, for Lore levels 1-4

35 + 10*(Lore - 5), for Lore levels 5+

Each spell you learn consumes the amount of Lore points equal to the Lore level required, and each level gives you more Lore points to expend You must also have a Lore level at least equal to the Lore level of the spell being learned

Magical Arts

Skill points in an art reduce the casting cost for the spell you're casting. This reduction varies based on the spell.

Chance to not consume the reagent is 0.01% * art * (art + 1) / 2 45 in the art will not consume reagents, the reagents are still required to be able to cast the spell.

Name Description
Conjuration This skill reduces the casting cost for Conjurations, which are spells that create things semipermanently, including summoning monsters, creating food and water, and building magical traps or shields. Increases your summon's respect score

Cost: 1,000g * trained skill level

Each new Art skill level also adds a chance not to consume any reagents. Each Level adds another (level * 1/10th percent) chance. So at Art level 1, you have a 0.1% chance (one in a thousand casts) of not using a reagent.

However, it stacks up quickly, so by the time you're level 10 you have a 5.5% chance (about 1 in 18 casts). At level 15 it's a 12% chance (1 in 8 casts), level 20 is a 21% chance (1 in 5 casts), and level 25 is a 32.5% chance (1 in 3 casts dont use a reagent.)

Cost: 1,000g * trained skill level

Weapon Skills

Weapon skills increase damage, speed, and accuracy of the respective weapon type. Attack speed is capped at 40 skill level.

Name Effect Per Level Description
Ranged ?? Bows and Crossbows are the preferred weapon of choice in the Archer's Guild. Wood Elves have a natural "Auto-fire" ability where they can automatically fire arrows at surrounding enemies while being on the move. This perk is also gained by joining the archers guild and improved by leveling the Ranged skill.
Swords ?? Swords typically have the word 'sword' in their name, such as "Longsword," "Elven Broadsword," "Two-Handed Sword," etc. Swords are the preferred weapon of the Paladin's Guild.
Blunt ?? Blunt weapons are the primary weapon choice in the Caveman's Guild. Blunt weapons deal smash damage, which is arguably the strongest of the three melee damage types.

Giants also have incredible natural strength, allowing them to wield the mighty Bonecrusher: the most powerful artifact currently in Wyvern, and a Blunt weapon.

Blades ?? Examples of Blade weapons are scimitar, cutlass, rapier, falchion, pocket knife, and katanas. Blade weapons are the weapon type of choice in the Ninja's Guild, a guild that specializes in speed, find-weakness, and the ability to backstab opponents to maximize their damage.
Axes ?? Axes are the preferred weapon of the Axeman's Guild and can do massive amounts of damage. Dwarves and Frost Giants have an innate proficiency with Axes.
Unarmed ?? Unarmed is one of the most common skills to train in the Monk's Guild, but also has value in the Ninja's Guild and in the Caveman's Guild. Rakshasa and Naga are two races that benefit the most from unarmed. Rakshasa claws get sharper as they level up, and Nagas can shapeshift into powerful forms with strong bite and claw attacks, such as Dragons and Kalidemons.
Hurled ?? Hurled weapons are sometimes used in the Ninja's Guild, and offer a different combat dynamic. With Hurled trained, you can "throw" weapons at enemies to hit for massive amounts of damage. However, you must go pick up the weapons after they hit the enemy, so positioning is key.
Polearms ?? Polearms are one of the alternative weapons that can be used in the Axeman's guild.
Whips ?? There is no Guild currently dedicated to Whips. However, Mages have been known to use the Magic Whip spell which still relies on the Whips skill.
Staves ?? Staves are one of the alternative weapons often used in the Monk's Guild by races that do not have a natural affinity for unarmed combat, such as Rakshasa and Nagas.
