Anatomy Overview

Anatomy is a general knowledge skill that encompasses a great number of species-specific Anatomy skills. Elemental, Fungoid, and Crone-Kin are just a few of the Anatomy sub-skills you may encounter. As you improve your skill at reading the Anatomy of various creatures, you will begin to learn more about them. More details will be available in a monster's target window. Eventually, students of the Anatomy skill will learn to read an opponents combat abilities and weaknesses at just a glance. It is said that Archers will improve their Critical hit percentage by improving their Anatomy, and that Butchers and Skinning experts will likewise reap benefits.

Anatomy Mechanics

Targeting

As Anatomy and its sub-skills are leveled, the amount of information provided in an enemy's target window will increase.

• When Level 5 is reached in an Anatomy sub-skill, ??? becomes visible.
• When Level 25 is reached in an Anatomy sub-skill, ??? becomes visible.
• When Level 50 is reached in an Anatomy sub-skill, Loot Level (average level of loot dropped by that creature) and Mitigation at Max Armor becomes visible for creatures of that anatomy type.

Equipment

While the introductory Autopsy Kit can be purchased from various NPC shopkeepers, it can also be crafted through Toolcrafting. Autopsy Kits which provide bonuses to effective skill level when interacting with a corpse can also be crafted, and do not require any specific skills to use. Adventurers encountering difficulties autopsying high level creatures may wish to request that another character craft them an improved kit, or learn Toolcrafting themselves.
