Hey, everyone! I'm looking for skill ideas. This is what I have so far:

Archery (does more arrow damage)
Alchemy (creates better potions)
Blacksmithing (improves armor more)
Acrobatics (higher jumping, takes less stamina)
Enchanting (creates better magical effects)
Athleticism (faster movement and swimming, takes less stamina)
One-Handed (does more onehanded damage)
Two-Handed (does more twohanded damage)
Unarmed (does more unarmed damage)
Block (blocks more damage)
Light Armor (takes less damage while wearing light armor)
Heavy Armor (takes less damage while wearing heavy armor)
Stealth (less of a chance of being detected while sneaking)
Lockpicking (locks are easier to pick)
Pickpocketing (pockets are easier to pick)
Conjuration (conjurations are stronger with more health)
Mercantile (prices are better)
Speechcraft (easier to persuade and intimidate npcs)
Destruction (stronger damage spells)
Restoration (healing is stronger)
Illusion (easier to change creature behavior)
Alteration (buffs/debuffs are stronger)

What about a speed boost?

[Shaded Wolf]

Athleticism allows for faster movement and faster swimming.

In some games I have seen (namely Rune Factory 3), there is sleeping and walking... and one for each of water, fire, earth, air... and one for axe, hammer, spear and dual blades... and one for farming, cooking, crafting... not sure if these will be of use to you as I don't know what actions are doable in your game. You can easily make a skill for each action you can ever do, so if you can do emotes, then there would be an emote skill, if you can dance, there's a dance skill.

Juggling
Rubic's Cube solving
Memorizing Pi

Ladies love these.

btw... what's the purpose of this topic? Are these skills for a particular game? Or just random skills?

[Shaded Wolf]

It's for an open world action plaftform rpg. And thanks thegame, i'll use cooking.

Like in skyrim, one handed will have perks inside with sword, axe and hammer. they will each do something special.

look up magic types on wikipedia, you can find more magic styles there.

Those are good but I'm looking for skills that can have perk trees inside of them. SO for blacksmithing, there could be a perk that gives you more and better materials while mining.

A skill that might be interesting is Channeling or Spiriting or Extraction - (This is a magical skill) - (Explained below).


Casting Move: Spirit Fire
What it does: You cast this spell upon an opponent are going to kill. (The move wears off after so much time say.... 60sec?)
Then when an enemy dies its soul (or energy core or whatever) is converted into a vessel of Light, Dark, or Neutral energy.

(Energy type is based on the enemy killed. So if you kill a light enemy you get light energy, or kill an dark enemy get dark energy, etc.)

Items Used: Spirit Vessel (Neutral), Light Vessel (Light), and Dark Vessel (Dark)
The energy (Or Spirit Charge) obtained from killing enemies with the Spirit Fire Mark is then placed within the Spirit Vessel. Once you have filled
your Spirit Vessel you can then use the Spirit Charges as an offensive, or defensive ability.

Obtainable Powers: Spirit, Light, or Dark Burst - Spirit, Light, or Dark Absorber
The Burst is a single max charged spell shot at an enemy. (Can change based on your level of skill in offense)
The Absorber is a single max charged damage reduction shield. (Can Change based on your level of skill in defense)

Anyways I'm not sure if this fits your style of game, but I hope you enjoy it!!
(And yes this skill can have a very large perk tree.)

If you want I can even make the perk trees.
(And draw out an example of them)
