You will spend most of your time in Dransik training various skills either in combat or through trade skills. There are dozens of skills to train. As you gain levels in your skill you become better at it, and can fight more powerful monsters or craft more complicated items. Press S or F to see your currently known skills.
To begin training a new skill you just have to figure out what will give you experience for it.
For example, I start on Silvest as a Blacksmith. First I go to the mountains and use my pick axe on a big piece of rock. My skill in “Digging” is going up! Once I collect enough iron ore from digging on the mountain, I return to town to smelt it in the forge. Now my skill in smelting is going up! I am halfway to level 2 now. Once I have enough iron, I can use my blacksmith hammer on the iron in the blacksmith’s shop and forge a new weapon! My skill in Forging has risen a few levels and now my player is level 2!
With my newly forged sword I venture into the Wine Cellar for Anna Bell to kill some rats. Each time I hit the rat I notice my skill in Short Blades is rising. In between battles I use bandages on myself to heal my wounds…now my skill in Bandages is increasing!
