Wizardry 7 Skills
There are a total of 34 skills divided into four categories: Weaponry, Physical, Academia, and Elite. Each profession starts with a particular set of skills. All skills max out at 100.
Weaponry Skills may automatically increase when you use the skill such as swinging a weapon. You will need to have the skill at any level in order to equip the weapon of a given skill. A higher skill level allows you to be more effective using a weapon of that skill. Physical Skills may also automatically increase when you use the skill with the exception of the Scouting skill. Academia Skills will never raise automatically and so it is important to raise these skills during level-up if you want access to new spells. Elite skills are only found during the adventure and often times can only be given to a single character.
