Skills
SankoQuest has 15 skills, confirmed by a first-person player report dated 2026-07-05. Each skill groups the game's tools, resource nodes, recipes, and training into one hub per activity. The reporting player typed the skill names in lowercase, so exact in-game capitalization is unverified until a skill-panel screenshot is captured; the census below uses conventional capitalization. Max levels and XP curves still need gameplay verification across the board.
Confirmed Skills
All 15 rows are player-verified (player report, 2026-07-05). Skills without a hub page yet appear as red links.

| 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.

Datamine Labels That Are Not Skills
The skill field of datamined resource-node rows names several labels that are absent from the player-listed skill census (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; player-verified furnace recipes are recorded on Smelting |
| Interact | Door Node | open | Generic interaction label |
Fletching is likewise a datamine label rather than a skill: the player report places fletching under the Crafting skill. 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 (player-confirmed, 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.
