RS5.2 - Skills Edition

- introduced a skill system which has different skills and experience levels for each.
- integrated the ore mining system into the new skill system. Higher ore mining level means higher rewards!
- with a lower mining level, there's a chance of wasting the ore you are mining which damages the result beyond usability!

We will eventually expands skills to other limited areas

[Teddy]

More information on skills:

Each skill has 20 levels per skill with various modifications for each depending on the skill.
Each skill level is 1000 experience.
The benefit, or restriction for each skill level, is determined by the individual system.
For most systems the only way to gain skill experience is by performing the skill.
