Note: You have the best chance for gains when the Success Chance is about 25-50%. There are alternatives to everything on this list, some use different ingredients, some can be sold/smelted while others cannot, etc. These lists are not definite.

Alchemy

Animal Taming

Also see another skill guide and our Standard Taming Guide for a complete list of the skill level required to tame each animal/monster.

±To make this requires 80+ Veterinary
~ To make this requires 80+ Animal Lore

Notes:
Please read Animal Taming for more detailed information.

To craft the Potions, Hitching Post and Pet Leash you will need to purchase a Brush from an Animal Trainer NPC.

You can go from zero - 120 without taming a thing if you buy skill from the Trainer, get +Taming jewelry to get you to 60 and start crafting from there. It costs much more but it is very possible and fast.

Use dyes on your animals and you'll get dirty bottles which you can clean in water (Double-click and target a water source).

Blacksmithy

Note: As an alternative to the Plate Hiro Sode, you can make royal circlets all the way to 120 as well. The gains will be slightly slower but they are easier to make and require far less ingots so you can craft longer on the same amount of materials.

Bowcrafting/Fletching

Or

It'll take longer the second way but less boards and darts will take you to 90.

Bushido

Carpentry

Note: At 50 you can start to make ballot boxes as a less material intensive alternative till 70.

Also, at 115, you can craft elven podiums for 20 boards each if bark fragments are unavailable. Giant Replica Acorn is a great choice.

Alternatively, you can craft decorative boxes up to 120 - while they cost 5 wood more than the elven podium, they can be chopped down, making them less material intensitive, while maintaining the same skill gain.

Cartography

Chivalry

On average it will cost you about 100,000 - 170,000 gold to reach 120 in Chivalry, unless you're using a full LRC suit. You'll need to tithe gold at an ankh by going up to an it and clicking on it. Use the arrows at the bottom of the popup menu to add the amount you want tithed, then click ok. You can check the amount of tithed gold in your book of chivalry.

Discordance

Healing

Healing can be raised simply by using bandages on yourself and other people. At 60.0 Healing you stand a chance of curing poisons, and at 80.0 you can attempt to resurrect player ghosts. The amount healed is modified by your anatomy skill.

Some of the best ways of macroing healing gains are to stock up on bandages and cast the necromancy spell 'lich form', this will cause you to constantly loose a small amount of HP. Also you can cast the Chivalry spell 'Devine Sacrifice' around people with less than 100% HP - if has been found that people training Necromancy by casting Lich form is good for this - and healing yourself back to full.

At 80.0 healing, simply heal a ghost without the ghost accepting the res.

Alternative method is to use Razor to equip / unequip a magic wizard hat bought from any mage vendor. This will lower your strength, when removed it will raise again and your HP will be less than full allowing for a bandage to be applied.

Inscription

Note: From 0-50 skill for almost no money and no blankscrolls/reagents you can simply copy one book to another! Simply click on the blue gem next to inscription on your skills list and click on a book with anything written in it and onto a second one! (This can be done over and over with only two books!) Empty books can be purchased from scribes in many towns! The one in Britain is just to the bottom left of the bank and the tailor shop. Enjoy! :D Love, Slavery

Books are also found at the Provisioner. -Asphyxium

Magery

From 100 to 120 you can also do it in another way by equipping weapons with the bonus Mage Weapon -XX magery This allows you to cast lower rank spells for faster gains but it might be tricky to find the appropriate negative amount.

Also an LRC (lower reagent cost) suit is highly recommended for training magery.

Also, very good for semi-newbies with good fighting and maybe a bit of tailor skill, you can make an arcane cloak whose charges will be used for spells! Simply make a regular everyday cloak (doesn't matter the color it will change) and double click an arcane gem and target the cloak! (Charges added depends on tailoring skill) You can get arcane gems from Juka Mages and Lords in Wrong (Trammel Dungeons), or from Golem Controllers in Exodus and the Puzzles outside Exodus (Illshenar).

Word to the wise: LRC to any degree makes the charges go off slowly as it increases and you can refill the cloak a lot slower! :)

Note: this also works on leather gloves, thigh boots, and a regular robe! :P

Necromancy

Ninjitsu

A good method of gaining extra temporary points in Ninjitsu in order to make the gaps easier to handle is to use a Hanzo's Bow (a fairly common Tokuno artifact) to raise your skill by 10 points.

Without Hanzo's Bow

With Hanzo's Bow

Note: 25-30(with hanzo)\40(without)another more costly but faster way is to use shurikens. Shurikens are made in blacksmithing requires 5 ingots per shuriken and exceptional is 2 uses and normal is 1. To throw a shuriken you must put in a leather ninja belt(Tailoring 45 skill 15 leather to make hold 10). To load equip the belt then single click. Double click belt then target a target to throw.

• Note that this may not be as intended - the guide had previously listed the trainable value as 25. The trainer only trains to 23 however and at that value the 2 points can represent a significant gap. Suggest using items that boost the skill to alleviate this.

Poisoning

• Note that deadly poisons wil get you only to 100 Poisoning. To reach 120 you will need a +20 skillball or many posioning skill essences.

Provocation

Tailoring

Approx. 10k Cloth and 6k Leather used from 0 to 120.

Tinkering

• Alt method from 108-120. Make nunchakus (3 ingots,8 boards) and sell them to Samurai Dealers
