Once you have completing the early [[Dungeons]], your skills caps will increase. After completing each dungeon, you will be offered a randomized selection of skills and level caps to select from. Each increase in skill caps will help to unlock more items. Whilst some choices might be straight-forward, it can be daunting weighing up the benefits of each skill and it can take a while before you are ready to tackle the next dungeon.
After completing a dungeon, you will be offered a randomized selection of skills and level caps to select from. Whilst some choices might be straight-forward, it can be challenging weighing up the benefits and of each skill.


In the early stages, these skills have useful benefits:
Here are some things to consider:
* '''Thieving:''' Once you get to {{SkillReq|Thieving|25}} you will unlock {{Icon|Assistant Cook|type=thieving}} which will be a great source of food. Also, you can use {{Skill|Thieving}} to get {{GP}} as well as some useful drops or ammo, as there are very few other ways to make money at this time.

* '''Farming:''' This provides a passive source of food, herbs, and logs. For example, killing {{MonsterIcon|Junior Farmer}} until you have 3 seeds of the same type will let you start {{Skill|Farming}} for extra food. In time, the passive benefits of {{Skill|Farming}} will give you a huge boost.

* '''Summoning:''' This gives a big boost and is needed for the higher strength mobs and dungeons. For example, {{ItemIcon|Golbin Thief}} is a good early summon that will help give the advantage in combat.

* '''Slayer:''' The [[Slayer tasks]] will reward you with {{Icon|Slayer Coins}} which can be used to purchase {{Skill|Slayer}} re-supplies. These give you a good source of food, prayer and ammo. It is going to be a long time before you unlock {{Skill|Fishing}} and {{Skill|Cooking}}, so these re-supplied will be invaluable. Levelling {{Skill|Slayer}} will also unlock new mobs and dungeons in time.

This [[Ancient Relics]] all about experimenting and trying out and experimenting before going after the tougher dungeons.
=== Skill Balancing ===
When levelling up your skills it is important to consider how each skill interacts with your other skills and abilities. For example, if you level {{Skill|Smithing}} it will give you access to stronger weapons and armour, but to use this skill you will also not {{Skill|Mining|Mine}} for the raw materials and a higher combat level to wear the items you have made. Similarly, if you level {{Skill|Firemaking}} to soon then you will also need {{Skill|Woodcutting}} (or {{Skill|Thieving}}) to balance out this skill.
