Preparing for mastery

All three primary skills can be mastered. Choose your two major and one minor Master Skills carefully. The choice is permanent. Look through Specialisations before choosing a pair of weapon skills or magic schools.

Above 100, fight stronger enemies and use a range of attacks rather than rapidly repeating the same action. Expect advancement to slow substantially. See Master skills for the practice requirements.

Online, Renown continues to improve health, magicka and loot while providing Firmament stars. A high character level alone does not measure all of a character's progress.

Mentor Mode adjusts combat strength only beside eligible lower-level party members. Combat stars and specialisations work at reduced strength; crafting and trade stars remain fully active. Your real progress is kept, and the pupil gains extra skill-use progress below 100.
