The various skills can be quite diverce, but all are in some way usefull. Here are the skills and what they do.

Combat skills:
Attack- This is your basic fighting skill. Not only does it allow you to wield better weapons, but increases your melee hit rate! Click on attack in the skills panel to see the weapon level requirements.

Strength- Simplicity is the best weapon. Level this to increase your damage from melee hits!

Defence- Why heal if you dont get hurt in the first place? A high defence lets you wear good armour, and block more hits!

Range- Death from above! Use this skill to wield better bows, and deal more damage!

Mage- Magic a is very usefull skill to have, as it's ice barrage wreaks havoc apon your enemies!
