Skill training levels

I'm starting to think I train my skills all wrong. I leave my weapon skill on the whole game, usually turn off fighting, leave armor, shield on.

But what I'm getting is that there is an optimal part to train these to. Is there a spreadsheet or a summary of what the skills useful levels are?

Re: Skill training levels

Thanks, Does armor and shields then work the same way? You only want the skill to go as high as needed to remove penalties?

Fighting then I assume you want on at all times.

Re: Skill training levels

I don't know about armor by I know that for Shields you want to bring your skill up to 5/15/25 to eliminate penalties for bucklers, shields, and large shields respectively. That's if your normal sized. If you are a Naga/Centaur/Troll/Ogre, it's 3/9/15, although Trolls and Ogres can't use bucklers. For Kobolds and Halflings it's 7/21/- (they can't use large shields) and for Spriggans it's 9/-/- (they can only use bucklers).
You see here a dire elephant corpse.
You start butchering the dire elephant corpse with your claws.
You continue butchering the corpse.
You are engulfed in roaring flames. You stop butchering the corpse.
You die...

Re: Skill training levels

You should probably get fighting to at least 10 since that gives a nice bit of hp.
