The skill system is the very heart of the very well designed character creation system of the game. This page will help you understand how to make the best of increasing skills and gaining levels.

==Leveling Equation==

Level is determined by an algebraic equation:

INT((A - B + 28)/15) = level
where A = Three Primary Skills + Two Highest Major Skills + Highest Minor Skill
B = the starting value of these same skills
INT = "drop any remainder"

In simpler terms, you must raise the total of these skills by 15 points in order to get a level increase. Any combination of skill increases will work as long as they total to 15 points. Increases in Miscellaneous skills do not count toward level increases, although the character will still be better at doing those things. Note that the formula counts only the highest Minor skill and the two highest Major skills, so any increases of the other Major/Minor skills do not count toward a level increase until the lower skills reach the same value as the highest.

==Level Up==
A level increase happens after resting. At that point the game looks at the various counters and decides whether a level increase is appropriate or not. It is advised to save before you level up.

Both your hitpoints and your attributes increase when you level up. Your hitpoints will increase by a random number between 1 and your maximum hitpoints per level. Your maximum hitpoints per level depends on your class. Those who made a [[Daggerfall:ClassMaker|custom class]] choose their maximum hitpoints, while those who chose a [[Daggerfall:Intrinsic_Classes|premade class]] have a set amount depending on the class they chose. The amount of hitpoints and attribute points you have to distribute can change if you were to reload and try to level up again, so it is advised to reload to try and get the maximum possible attribute points and a very high amount of health.

==Skills==
Almost every action your character can perform is governed by a skill. The score for a skill measures your proficiency in that field; a character who is adept at a skill has a higher value than a novice. Each skill is governed by an attribute which sets an upper limit, and may offer bonuses or penalties towards the application of that skill.

The application of a skill is either passive or active, with the majority of invocations as the active type. This means the character is undertaking some action, rather than just letting things happen. An example of an active skill invocation would be the [[#Jumping|Jumping]] skill. The character's skill is only applied when the player issues the correct command.
Passive skills, on the other hand, are invoked by the Daggerfall game engine itself on the player's behalf. [[#Medical|Medical]] is a prime example of a passive skill, because it is invoked each time the character rests, on the character's behalf by the computer, even if the player's intention was to idle for several hours. Language skills are another example. Whenever one comes within range of a creature of the appropriate type, the language skill is automatically checked. If successful, the creature is rendered non-hostile.

An action is resolved as a success or a failure by evaluating the governing skill with some random chance. The score of a skill is proportional to the probability of success in that action if given "average" circumstances. Naturally some circumstances may be more difficult than others, and the skill evaluation process considers any applicable bonuses or penalties, but for the most part one may consider a skill's score as a success probability expressed as a percentile.

[''Example: The [[#Archery|Archery]] skill is governed by [[Daggerfall:Agility|Agility]], which means not only will a character with a high score in Agility become adept at Archery faster than a character with a low score in Agility, but will also receive bonuses towards resolving any application of that skill. Since Archery is an active skill, it is only evaluated when the character uses Bows. '']
