4.4. Skills ( CTRL+ S keys)

The Skills screen offers information about the skills you already have, along with a full rundown on all the skills available in the game so you can begin to plan your character' s growth. Perhaps most importantly, the Skills screen lists all of your current XP, which is the "currency" of the skills system ( Go here for a description of XP).

The My Character page lists your current professions and their associated skills. Highlighting any profession or skill will provide a description of it. Skills that you currently possess are in green. You should read the descriptions of the skills you haven' t yet earned to discover how much XP it will cost to earn them. And you should find out what new abilities and skill modifications you would earn along with that skill.

Beneath your list of professions is a catalog of all your XP and skill modifiers. Every time you use a skill, you gain some amount of the appropriate XP (i.e. Pistol XP for killing a womp rat with a blaster pistol; Rifle XP for taking down a stormtrooper with your trusty rifle). In addition, many skills give you modifiers for specific actions, like trying to hit an enemy with a given weapon. The modifiers you currently utilize are all listed here.

The All Professions page works in the same manner as the My Character page, except that it lists all of the professions.
