Question About Skills

[snow]

I'm curious to know if a skill such as throwing takes more experience advance from say level 2 to 3 than level 1 to 2. If so how steep is the curve? I'm trying to determine if I should level many skills or stick with just a few and this seems to be the deciding factor for me.

It costs more to level a skill up the higher level the skill is.

Different skills take different amounts of xp to level up to the same level, even ignoring differing attributes.

Finally, it costs more to level a skill up the more total xp you've acquired. This is why it's so important to get some levels in skills like fighting asap- later it'll cost more.

I didn't realize that. Such a strange system.

But later on, you get much more XP to spend on skills. So the system tries to balance that so that training low level skills at high level isn't lightning fast. For precise numbers, you can have a look at this page.
