Skills (Abridged)
Condensed from wiki 技能. Home · Beginner Guide
Five tracks—Farming, Foraging, Mining, Fishing, Combat—cap at level 10 (before Mastery). XP comes from harvesting crops, chopping trees, breaking rocks, catching fish, fighting mobs. Every level adds tool proficiency (hoe/watering can/axe/pickaxe/fishing rod bonuses).
At levels 5 & 10 you pick profession passives (price boosts, crafting shortcuts, …). Level-5 choice gates the level-10 pair (wiki “branching tree” diagram).
Update 1.6+ & Mastery
After all five skills hit 10, overflow XP feeds the Mastery system—visit the Mastery cave (wiki links it near Cindersap Forest) to spend points, or pay Statue of Uncertainty in the sewers to respec. Exact gold costs & rewards stay on the wiki patch notes.
Buff foods can temporarily push effective skill above 10 for stat bonuses (fishing bar length, etc.).
