Starfield:Skills
Skills provide a variety of boosts to your character. Your Background gives you three starting skills. When you level up you can unlock new skills, after which you can rank up the skill to gain further benefits by using the skill and completing challenges. Skill ranks can be differentiated based on the border of the skill. A darkened icon with a gray border means the skill is still locked. If the icon has a gray border and gray design it is Rank 0, a colored design means Rank 1. If the icon has two gray borders it is Rank 2. Finally Rank 3 and 4 have a gold border with one or two lines respectively.
