This HumanitZ Skills Guide will tell you how to unlock Skills, which Skill you should take first, and what benefits you get from each Skill.

You'll need Skills to survive in a post-apocalyptic environment and HumanitZ is no different. Even if you have a good Gun and a fast Car, you'll want to have every edge you can get when you're facing a horde of Zeeks -- read on to learn all about Skills!


How to Unlock Skills in HumanitZ

You can unlock Skills in HumanitZ by earning Skill Points and spending them on the "Skills" tab in the menu. You earn Skill Points by gaining XP and leveling up; each level gives you 1 Skill Point. XP is primarily gained by killing Zeeks and hostile humans.


What Skills Should You Take First in HumanitZ?

In my opinion, the first Skill you should take in HumanitZ is Powerlifter. While you'll need to level up a few times to get enough Skill Points, the ability to carry more Weight will let you loot more areas of the Map in one trip.
