Leveling up Skills plays a vital role in players' proficiency with a specific skill, but it also unlocks a unique set of achievements whereby they can begin earning Skill Medals. This exclusive currency is linked with the Skills and Accomplishments systems, which, in the latter's case, the Weekly Challenges will be unlocked when reaching a specific Skill level for players to complete.
Nevertheless, completing these weekly tasks will award them with Skill Medals, but when visiting various Skill Masters, they'll have exclusive items available to purchase. We've compiled this skill-worthy guide on how players can get Skill Medals and the best places to spend them in Palia.
How To Get The Skill Medals In Palia?
Players have familiarized themselves with various types of currency like Gold, Renown, Lucky Coins, and Palia Coins, but there’s yet another available currency for players to use in-game. Skill Medals can be used when making in-game purchases, including resources, wallpapers, and furniture pieces, which can be used to decorate their spaces.
However, what makes Skill Medals different from Gold and Renown, yet similar to Lucky Coins, is that Skill Medals can be used exclusively at the Guild Store. However, there are eight types of Skill Medals for players to earn, which can only be used at its associated Guild Store.
To earn Skill Medals, players must reach Level 10 with any eight available Skills (Bug Catching, Cooking, Fishing, Foraging, Furniture Making, Gardening, Hunting, and Mining) to start earning Skill Medals. Each time they level up a Skill, they’ll earn ten Skill Medals by default, but the best way to earn more Skill Medals is by completing Weekly Challenges.
These, too, unlock when reaching Level 10 with any Skill, and these can be found below the Accomplishments tab from the Character Profile menu. Once they’ve completed a Weekly Challenge, they’ll earn their corresponding Skill Medals, which can be used at the Guild Store.
To find how many Skill Medals they’ve amassed, they can navigate to the Character Profile menu and click the Inventory tab to view the current total of Skill Medals. It’s important to note that the maximum number of Skill Medals players can hold at any given time is capped at 2,000 Medals for each Skill.
How To Use The Skill Medals In Palia?
As alluded to previously, Skill Medals are a form of in-game currency earned by leveling up Skills and completing Weekly Skill Challenges and used at its associated Guild Store. As each Guild has its Guild Master who runs the store, they can visit them any time of the day to buy items guaranteed they have enough Skill Medals.
