Yes - you heard it correctly. TibiaME is getting a Skill System. But not only that! In addition we are going to open up the Attributes of the characters too. So what does that mean? Currently when you reach a new level with your character, it automatically becomes stronger. With the release of the spring update you will receive 4 Attribute points for each level up, which you can freely distribute to your Attributes 'Health', 'Mana', 'Attack' and 'Defense'. From Level 8 on you will also receive 1 Skill point, which can be used to activate different skills.

When distributing points to the Attributes there are some differences for the vocations though. Each point on the given Attribute will give you:

• Health: Warrior +10, Wizard +4
  
• Mana: Warrior +2, Wizard +8
  
• Attack: Warrior +1, Wizard +1
  
• Defense: Warrior +1, Wizard +1
  

Now that's nice, right? But you want even more diversity for your character? That's where the Skill System kicks in. By choosing your skills, you can play your character in many different ways.

But how do Skills work?

• First of all: To use a skill you need to distribute at least 1 skill point to it. Each point distributed this way will add 1 of 5 possible stars to the skill. The more stars, the more often you can use the skill (faster reload time).
  
• You can activate one aggressive and one defensive skill at the same time. Each skill tree is divided into these two sections. Warriors have Tank (Defensive) and Damage (Aggressive) skills. Wizards have Heal (Defensive) and Damage (Aggressive) skills.
  
• Higher skills will require you to have certain skills at 5 stars, before you can distribute skill points to them. So to activate the Warrior skill 'Double Armour' you will require 5 stars on 'Dodge' and 5 stars on 'Hardskin'. The earliest level to activate (have 1 star) 'Double Armour' is 18.

The following dialogues are important:

In the Attributes menu you can raise and lower your attribute values:

In the Skill menu you can raise and lower your skills. At the beginning you will only see the skills you can distribute points to. Remember: Most skills require other skills with 5 stars, so that you can distribute points to them. As this is a Beta Test, you can simply level up all skills (without actually requiring any skill points):

Try using skills appropriate for your level. You can see the level in the skill name: wiz_08_heal

To activate a skill you will require a different menu. Please keep in mind that this is not the final release state. These dialogues were created for the Beta Test only:

Once you have selected an aggressive and / or defensive skill, leave the dialogue. You will now see the skills in the game:

Now you can use your normal combinations of use (Menu > use, or hotkey '2'). Then either navigate to the skill you want to use and confirm, or press * for the aggressive skill and # for the defensive skill.
