Been playing a few hours now and ive died a few times. The first thing i did was level up Survival and it hasnt lost any levels when ive died. But the other Skills Ive put points into lose all progress once i die. So do I lose skills unless ive maxed them out?

When you die, you lose a percentage of your skills and experience. You do not lose skills that are a part of your skillset, which can be changed from the main menu. In the skill menu, you can see what skills are tied to each skillset, by the little icons next to each skill.

Thanks, that really helps me out. Though I'm not seeing the little icons you mentioned. I'm playing on Xbox one so maybe it's different.

For the sake of context then, here's a list of the skills tied to each skillset:

  • Civilian: not applicable
  • Firefighter: Cardio, Strength
  • Police Officer: Exercise, Toughness
  • Spec Ops: Dexterity, Sharpshooter
  • Farmer: Agriculture, Survival
  • Fisher: Diving, Fishing
  • Lumberjack: Outdoors, Warmblooded
  • Worker: Crafting, Engineer, Mechanic
  • Chef: Cooking, Vitality
  • Thief: Parkour, Sneakybeaky
  • Doctor: Healing, Immunity
  • Overkill is the only skill that is not tied to any skillset.
