Armslore	Used to see the condition of a weapon or armour or clothing. There are 2 components - the amount of HP left on the item, and also an indicator as to how many times the item has been repaired. It is always a good idea to keep your weapons and armour in good repair. Worn items are not as effective.	Blacksmithing Carpentry Tailoring	Yes	None
ArcaneFocus	This skill enables Critcial Hits for your arcane magic spells. A level of 100 will give you a 30% chance of a critical hit. A critical hit will give you a 50% damage bonus.	Arcane	No	None
Camping	Lighting a campfire will increase your health, stamina and mana recovery rate. To know you're getting benefit from your campfire, the message "Now that’s a fire!" should appear when lighting it. If you get the message "That’s not a very good fire" this means you are not getting any benefit from your fire. The higher your skill in Camping, the quicker the recovery rate.

ForensicEvaluation	This skill is used to determine how many times you can resurrect a dead henchman. It does not effect other players or pets. The Resurrection and Noble Sacrifice spells can resurrect henchman up to 50 times if you have 100 forensiceval skill. If you have very little forensicevaluation skill then your leadership skill is used for a maximum of 25 resurrections at 100 skill. If you use the forensicevaluation skill on an npc corpse it will tell you how many times it has been resurrected.	Woodsman Leadership	No	None
Healing	This skill allows you to use bandages to heal wounds. You can do it anytime whether you're in battle or you are in town. Healing is quite useful in battle so you can heal other players instead of using heal potions.	Leadership Cooking Alchemist	Yes	Human -8
Invocaton	This skill is the power or your attack arcane spells. The higher your skill (including specialisation) the more damage you will do.	Arcane Magery Paladin	No	None

Riding	The Riding skill is checked when trying to get on the animal and determines whether you succeed and how long you can stay mounted.	Woodsman	No	None
Tracking	Tracking is a useful skill to try to find a creature or person further away from you. Your chance of finding something to track is based on your skill. At 60% skill you can track creatures that are 30 tiles away. At 80% skill you can track creatures that are 36 tiles away and at 100% skill you can track creatures that are 43 tiles away	Woodsman Druid	No	Halfelf +10
Veterinary	Veterinary skill is checked whenever you use bandages on a pet or henchman. The amount of healing is increased, but since it is a random number, expect it to be about 40% more on average.

Wands can only resurrect a pet 5 times.	Woodsman Druid	No	None
