Hi been playing for 7 months (pve and Caldwells silver / gold, wrothgar etc) without thinking much about it, now its time to take it seriously (moving on to Cyrodiil). Now i need to understand better how skills level up. have always noticed if a skill is slotted and even if its not used it still levels up, also some skills level up faster than others even thou used much less.
More specifically i wish to level the assault skill line, whats the best way to do this? does singly exploration i.e obtaining skyshards, finding / beating delves and dark anchors etc count, or doing the quests in cropsford etc count.
or is it all to do with joining a group and assaulting / defending keeps, farms, mills only.
