Life Skills are skills that maintain the player-based economy in the game. Life Skills come in four categories. Although Herbalist and Poison Maker are categorized as Manufacturing skills, they can gather herbs and poisonous plants, respectively. The Musician and Weiqi Player are the only Life Skills that solely provide combat buffs.
