Skills
SankoQuest has 15 skills (verified in-game, 2026-07-05). Each skill groups the game's tools, resource nodes, recipes, and training into one hub per activity. Exact in-game capitalization needs a skill-panel screenshot; the census below uses conventional capitalization. Max levels and XP curves still need gameplay verification across the board.
Confirmed Skills
All 15 rows are gameplay-verified (2026-07-05). Skills without a hub page yet appear as red links.
| Skill | Covers | Hub page |
|---|---|---|
| Attack | Combat skill | No hub yet — combat content is collected on Combat |
| Strength | Combat skill | No hub yet — combat content is collected on Combat |
| Defense | Combat skill | No hub yet — combat content is collected on Combat |
| Stamina | Combat skill; the game's health analog | No hub yet — combat content is collected on Combat |
| Fishing | Fish, rods, nets, and fishing spots | Fishing |
| Cooking | Raw food, cooked food, and fires | Cooking |
| Mining | Ores, rocks, and pickaxes | Mining |
| Smithing | Bars, tools, armor, and furnaces | Smithing |
| Woodcutting | Logs, axes, and trees | Woodcutting |
| Firemaking | Lighting logs (tutorial-confirmed: lighter on a log) | No hub yet |
| Archery | Ranged combat with bows and arrows; the game's ranged-combat skill | No hub yet |
| Crafting | Covers fletching (arrow shafts and bows cut with the Crafting Knife), verified in-game. Whether any skill tracks flax processing at the Textile Workbench is unknown (see Weaving) | No hub yet — datamined fletching content currently sits on Fletching |
| Psalms | The game's prayer analog; in-game mechanics are entirely unverified | No hub yet |
| Magic | Spellbook and shard costs | Magic |
| Mixnometry | Crafting elemental Shards from feathers, raw crawdads, copper ore, oak logs, and bones at altars | No hub yet |
Combat is a content hub, not a skill: the census confirms four separate combat skills (Attack, Strength, Defense, and Stamina), and the Combat page collects the weapons, armor, mobs, and drops shared across them.

Accepted evidence: skill interface screenshot or level-up capture.
Add it with {{Skill}}.
Datamine Labels That Are Not Skills
The skill field of datamined resource-node rows names several labels that are absent from the in-game skill list (verified 2026-07-05). A label is not a skill until it is seen in the skill panel; these are node labels only.
| Label | Referenced by | Action verb | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weaving | Textile Workbench Node | weave | Station interaction that processes Flax; whether any skill or XP tracks it is unknown — see Weaving |
| Banking | Bank Node | bank | Bank access, not a trainable activity — see Banking |
| Foraging | Flax Node | pick | Node action label |
| Smelting | Furnace Node | smelt | Furnace action label; gameplay-verified furnace recipes are recorded on Smelting |
| Interact | Door Node | open | Generic interaction label |
Fletching is likewise a datamine label rather than a skill: fletching falls under the Crafting skill (verified in-game, 2026-07-05). The Fletching hub keeps its datamined bow and arrow content under that label until a Crafting hub exists.
Note: the Smithing hub describes smelting as part of Smithing, while Furnace Node game data labels the furnace action Smelting. Which skill actually governs furnace level requirements and XP still needs gameplay verification.
Help verify which skill (if any) gains XP from the Textile Workbench, Furnace Node, and Flax Node actions Accepted evidence: XP gain or skill-panel capture at each station.
Herblore Is Not a Skill
The wiki has an Herblore hub built from datamined item and recipe data, but Herblore is not an in-game skill (verified in-game, 2026-07-05). The hub keeps its datamined potion and vial content under that label. Which skill, if any, governs potion-making is unverified.
Help verify which skill (if any) governs potion-making Accepted evidence: XP gain or skill-panel capture while making a potion.
