Here is the 'Tips for Skills' page. You can come to this page and put in info on how to raise a certain skill, e.g. what are the tricks of the trade and you can ask for help raising a skill.

Mining

To grind mining people usually ask for an insanely high ql pickaxe with Wind of Ages spell. This isnt the way to go. You want a relitivly low ql pick with as much Circle of Cunning on it as possible, this will give alot of skill if you mine rock shards with it as it heightens the difficulty and the mine time, its the mine time that improves the skill gain in mining, longer mine time = more skill.

Anyone feel free to correct this if i've said something wrong.

Carpentry

To grind carpentry the best way is building houses or grinding sub skills like carpentry, bowyery and fletching. Don't use Wind of Ages on your mallet when you're building, it leads you to recieve less skillgain.

For help in building houses, it is strongly reccommended that you visit The "how do I build a house?" guide.

Wood cutting

To grind woodcutting, the best way is to get a good Circle of Cunning Hatchet and start cutting down trees in the area you want to use/ build on. Make sure you repair the axe after every 5-20 uses in consideration to your Repairing skill.

Digging/Terraforming

To grind digging skill up, Use a good Circle of Cunning shovel and try not to keep your eye on the skillgain; trust me it seems like you get your skill up faster, Look for an area you want to flatten or terraform. Dig the areas needed and dump the dirt in areas needed. For example:-

You want a bit of land to be flat and you find out some of it is already flat so you dig the areas are not flat.


100--------Leave the same


100--------Leave the same


150-------- Dig 50 here


100--------Leave the same


100--------Leave the same

But if there is only a small bit that needs terraforming then expand. Cut some trees down around the edge to make a 5x5 flat surface into a 10x10. Do this as much as you can and your skill will shoot up.

Remember dont look at the skills untill you have finished at least 5x5 surface
