RuneScape: Dragonwilds

Guides

Here are all the things you will unlock as you grind through the various skills in RuneScape: Dragonwilds.

RuneScape: Dragonwilds is the brand new survival co-op game from Jagex, which is now playable in early access. The game is already proving very popular with hardcore RuneScape fans, with the game being set in the same universe as both RuneScape 3 and Old School RuneScape. Those of you familiar with those games will recognise the skills and unlocks system in Dragonwilds.

Currently, there are a few different skills that you may get in Dragonwilds. These will change your character and the things that you can do in the world. However, while there are a few to get started on right now, these will be added too and expanded upon as the game develops with future updates. We don’t know how many extra skills there could be to master when the game comes out of early access.

The game is in early access, so the skills and unlocks varies widely. However, if you start grinding now your experience will stand you in good stead for the game as it develops and evolves.

Here are the three skills in RuneScape: DragonWilds that we feel you should level up first for the easiest time.

All Dragonwilds Skills and Unlocks

All the current skills and their unlocks are included below. It’s important to know that Dragonwilds has a variety of rewards for levelling skills. These range from major rewards to minor rewards. So, sometimes you won’t feel like you got anything particularly meaningful.

In addition, the level cap for each skill is 40. However, the cap is planned to reach 99. This is just a temporary cap while the game is in Early Access.

What we don’t know yet is what happens to your XP if you reach level 40. Hopefully this will carry over but at the moment there has not been any announcement from Jagex so bear that in mind if you plan to really grind through some XP!

Attack

For every level you achieve you’ll get -1% Attack Stamina cost, besides for the levels listed below that have major unlocks.

Mining

For every level you achieve you’ll get +1 Critical Hit chance when Mining cost, besides for the levels listed below that have major unlocks.

Woodcutting

For every level you achieve you’ll get -1% Woodcutting Stamina cost, besides for the levels listed below that have major upgrades. Focusing on the Woodcutting skill and the related unlocks is a great thing to do early on in RuneScape: Dragonwilds, as it feeds into other skills.

Artisan

For every level you achieve you’ll get -1% durability loss on equipment, besides for the levels listed below that have major unlocks.

Construction

There are no minor bonuses for this skill, just the following major unlocks. Construction is one of the simplest skills in RuneScape: Dragonwilds but also has some of the most important unlocks. You’ll need to combine all your other skills to really build impressive structures in the game.

Cooking

For every level you achieve you’ll get +1 delicious good chance, besides for the levels listed below that have major upgrades.

Runecrafting

You won’t get any minor unlocks in Runecrafting, instead you get a new recipe every few levels.
