Skills

Skills are the cornerstone of IdleMMO, enabling progress even while you're away from your device — true to the idle gaming genre.

How Skills Work

• Variety of Skills: The game includes numerous skills, from Woodcutting to Mining.
• Material Distribution: As you engage in a skill, materials are accumulated over time. For instance, with Woodcutting, you'll receive a Log every few seconds, depending on the type of Log being cut.
• Idle Gameplay: You're free to step away from your device; your character continues the task. Upon your return, you'll find a collection of resources gathered in your absence.

Note: Some skills require specific Equipment, like a Pickaxe for Mining. You are given very basic equipment when you create your account but you can obtain better equipment by crafting them.

Pro Tip: Explore new locations to discover different items acquired from skills by travelling.
