Mabinogi/Skills

Skills are the core of your character - rather than choosing your stats, they are determined by your skill level in certain areas. Weaving, for instance, raises your dexterity.

All skills have ranks F-A, then 9-1, with 1 being the highest and F being the lowest. Skills are categorized in three areas: Combat, Life, and Magic. Each is described in greater detail below.

Skills are ranked up using Ability Points, which are gained through completing Beginner's Quests, leveling up, or aging a year (which occurs every Saturday). The amount gained through aging depends on your character's age - older characters gain less AP. It becomes imperative therefore to pay Nexon to rebirth your characters. Rebirthing allows players to, among other things, reset their character's age and level. This allows them to gain skills faster.
