==Mining==
To grind [[mining]] people usually ask for an insanely high [[Quality|ql]] [[pickaxe]] with [[Wind of Ages]] spell. This isnt isn't the way to go. You want a relitivly relatively low ql pick with as much [[Circle of Cunning]] on it as possible, this will give alot a lot 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.
Mining [[rock shards]] is easier for a new player up to a decent skill level (20 -30?) but from then on if you want to grind [[mining]] I would suggest mining on an [[ore]] [[vein]]. At around 30 skill, [[mining]] [[iron]] may be the best option for you, but as you get up to around 40 or even 50 in mining, you should mine [[Gold]] or [[Silver]]. I would not reccommend recommend you start off mining on gold or silver because you are very unlikely to get any ore above ql 1.00 (Mining a ql 1.00 ore/shard gives no skillgain whatsoever)
==Carpentry==
To grind [[carpentry]] the best way is building [[house|houses]] or grinding sub skills like [[fine carpentry]], [[bowyery]] and [[fletching]]. Don't use [[Wind of Ages]] on your [[mallet]] when you're building, it leads you to recieve receive less skillgain.
For help in building houses, it is strongly reccommended recommended that you visit [[The "how do I build a house?" guide.]]
==Wood cutting==
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 until you have finished at least 5x5 surface'''
==Farming==
The best way to grind your farming skill is to start with ''Bread crops'' or [[Wemp]]. ([[Oat]], [[Wheat]] & [[Barley]]) You may wonder why, but the reason is that you ALLWAYS ALWAYS gain seeds for replanting.
To get started so should you start with a 10x10 field for maximum skill gain. Get a small barrel and LOTS of time and you are set. (Read the [[Farming]] article for common farming knowledge.)
==Blacksmithing==
To get started it's best to have a forge of decent QL and good Ql tools. This ensures that your forge will remain hot for longer and heat things faster, and that you will have less of a chance of failing while imping.
What I find handy when skilling up is to make multiple copies of an item and work on them all simultaneously. If you are also a miner or have ready access to unlimited ore, then you can work on any items you want. If you only have limited access to ore, then your best bet is to create and improve needles.
Skillgain is faster the more difficult the work; improving items to 30 points below your level won't generate skillgain as fast as improving items to 10 below your skill level, and so forth.
