Skinning/Tooltip

Skinning is a Survival Skill that allows you to extract and process meat and skins from killed animals.

• For now the skinning process is simplified - Skinning only requires you to have one of the 5 listed weapon types in your inventory. When standing near the corpse of an animal, you can use the Skinning skill, spending one turn.
• The loot you will receive from Skinning varies:
  • The pelt + meat + other loot (like horns or tusks).
  • Just meat + other loot.
  • Nothing at all.
• The player character comments upon not receiving the pelt or anything at all, vaguely explaining the reason.
• Killing animals with Unholy, Poison and Caustic damage types will almost always cause the meat to spoil. Arcane damage type spoils the meat too, but less often.
• Killing animals with Fire damage type might cause the meat to become cooked.
• Currently all animals are skinnable.

Skinning mechanics

The Skinning mechanics are as follows:

• Each pelt has a hidden HP number, which decreases each time the animal receives damage.
• If the pelt's hidden HP is too low when the animal is killed, you won't get any pelt from skinning.
• Damage to the pelt is multiplied from certain damage types. Fire deals more damage to pelts than Slashing, which deals more damage than Piercing or Crushing.
• Bleeding damage doesn't damage the pelt at all.
