OK, I was kinda disappointed when they released 1.8 and there was nothing to do with the skill points/exp you can earn. So, I have a few ideas for skills. Some are pretty basic, others are a bit advanced.
-Strength-
-- When you upgrade this skill, you are able to do stuff faster without tools. (EX: Get logs from a tree faster without an ax, mine stone faster without a pick, etc.) It's not going to go to high though. People will still want to use tools, it's just meant so that in case you need to get something quickly, you won't need to craft a whole new tool for it.
-- When you get this skill up to a certain point, you can get certain things you need a tool for. (EX: Get cobblestone from stone without using an ax.)
-Attack-
-- When you upgrade this skill, your critical hits do more damage.
-Defense-
-- When you upgrade this skill, enemy mobs do more damage.
-- FALL DAMAGE REMAINS THE SAME NO MATTER HOW HIGH THIS SKILL IS!!! Fall damage has nothing to do with defense.
-Farming-
-- When you upgrade this skill, you will be able to farm more items from wheat, sugar cane, etc. (EX: You get 6-7 more wheat and 6-7 more seed from harvesting wheat verses the usual 2-3 wheat and 1-3 seed you get normally or whatever the amount normally is.)
-Agility-
-- When you upgrade this skill, your hunger bar goes down slower when you sprint.
-- Fall damage is lowered when this skill is upgraded.
-- You will have a chance to double jump when this skill is at a certain level. (Press the jump button twice for a chance to jump up two blocks instead of the normal height of one.)
-Mining-
-- When this skill is upgraded, you will mine rocks and ores faster.
-- When this skill is at a certain level, you can mine certain ores and rocks. (EX: Mine coal at skill level 2. Mine diamonds at skill level 20. Etc.)
-Woodcutting-
-- When this skill is upgraded, you can chop down logs and wooden items faster. (EX: Chop down birch trees faster at skill level 10. etc.)
-- When this skill us upgraded, you can dig up dirt and sand faster.
This is all I could think of, and I'm sure more people have the same idea, but what do you think? :laugh.gif:

I just downloaded this mod today, and it is amazing. It's exactly what I wanted with skills and it's very similar to your idea. I think it would be great if Notch could implement this mod just like he did with the pistons.

Don't you mean they do LESS damage?
