Where to configure this
Open Community, Levels and rewards, under Members and roles. Choose your server at the top, and use the switch to turn it on or off.
Skills features
Reward participation with an automatic skill progression system that tracks what your members do and levels them up accordingly.
Automatic progression
Predefined skills gain XP automatically when members perform related actions such as working, fishing, playing casino games, or answering trivia.
Four core skills
Competence (from !work), Fishing (from !fish), Charm (from casino games), and Intelligence (from trivia and scramble) are built in and ready to go.
Visual progress bars
Optionally display progress bars so members can see exactly how close they are to the next level for each skill.
Custom stats
Create your own stats such as Reputation or Luck with custom names, emojis, min/max ranges, and default values. Make them visible to users or keep them admin-only.
Fully customisable
Rename any skill, change its emoji, adjust XP per action, and set an optional natural cap. Every predefined skill can be individually enabled or disabled.
XP rate
Control how quickly skills level up by setting the minimum and maximum XP awarded per action. Tweak progression speed to suit your community.
Commands
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
!skills | View your skills and XP progression. Mention a user to see theirs. Also available as !stats. |
!skillcheck | Check your level and progress for a specific skill |
How levels work: predefined skills gain XP automatically when members perform related actions. Higher levels require progressively more XP, so progression naturally slows as members advance.
Configuration
Skills settings are managed from the Skills tab of the Discord bot across four tabs: Settings, Skills, Custom Stats, and Commands.
XP rate and display
Set the minimum and maximum XP awarded per skill action (default 1 to 5), choose an embed colour for skill cards, and toggle progress bars on or off.
Skills channel
Optionally restrict skills commands to a single channel. Leave empty to allow them in any channel.
Predefined skills
Enable or disable each of the four core skills. Customise their names, emojis, XP per action, and optional natural caps.
Custom stat settings
Create stats with a name, description, emoji, min/max range, default value, display order, and a visibility toggle. Manual adjustments stop at the natural cap, but shop boosts can exceed it.
