How can I practice my skills?
- 1 of 6: Practice your skills by using them in authentic situations.
- 2 of 6: This means you can't increase your Short Blade skill by just drawing a dagger and jabbing it at the wall, or something like that. You have to actually be attacking a living person or creature with it.
- 3 of 6: You can monitor your progress toward the next skill increase by bringing up the Stats Menu and pointing the mouse cursor at the skill you want to check on.
- 4 of 6: Some skills are a bit easier to practice. For instance, running around and swimming a lot increases your Athletics skill, and jumping and taking long falls increases your Acrobatics skill.
- 5 of 6: One way to practice combat skills besides killing creatures in the wilderness is to enter houses where there's only one person present and attack him.
- 6 of 6: For maximum practice, don't kill him -- leave the house, rest somewhere in order to heal up, and reenter. He'll probably be healed, too. This is especially useful for practicing Hand-to-hand combat and the defensive skills.
