Wasteland 3: Skills - points, list Wasteland 3 guide, walkthrough

Last update: 03 September 2020

On this page of our Wasteland 3 game guide you can find information about the character's skills. We have provided a complete list of skills. You will also learn how you can acquire skill points in the game.

The game offers a total of 22 skills which have 10 ranks. 22 skills have been divided into 4 categories. Each skill can be developed in two ways. The first way is to use the skill points awarded for leveling up a character. The higher the level of a particular skill, the more skill points are required to develop it further. This is based on the following scheme:

  1. 1. Level - 1 Skill Point
  2. 2. Level - 1 Skill Point
  3. 3. Level - 1 Skill Point
  4. 4. Level - 2 Skill Points
  5. 5. Level - 2 Skill Points
  6. 6. Level - 3 Skill Points
  7. 7. Level - 3 Skill Points
  8. 8. Level - 4 Skill Points
  9. 9. Level - 5 Skill Points
  10. 10. Level - 6 Skill Points

The second option consists in reading skills books, which can be found during world exploration. Each of them grants skill points to a specific ability. They are single-use items, so you have to decide which character should use them.

The first category includes combat skills - Wasteland 3: Skills - points, list - Character development - Wasteland 3 Guide, Walkthrough
