How to get items in the Inventory?

You can get items in two ways: by buying them in the Shop with Gold earned during quizzes, or by receiving them as rewards when leveling up.

What are Mana Potions for?

Mana Potions instantly restore your energy gauge, allowing you to launch a new Raid Portal (Quiz) without waiting for natural regeneration.

How to protect my streak if I can't log in one day?

You can buy and equip a "Streak Freeze" shield from your Inventory. This item will protect your progression if you miss your Daily Quest.

The Inventory (Equipment) | Skillwaker Manual

01

Overview

Your adventurer's satchel and tactical items

The Inventory (Equipment System) is the central hub where you store, manage, and activate all items acquired during your journey on Skillwaker. It also includes access to the Merchant's Shop, where your hard-earned Gold realizes its strategic value.

🎮

In technical terms: The Inventory is the Item Management & In-app Micro-transactions system (using the app's soft currency, Gold). It is a major engagement lever that allows you to reinvest completion rewards into progression bonuses — a virtuous loop of "learn → earn → optimize → learn better".

Whether you need to recharge your Mana to chain quizzes, protect your daily streak against unforeseen events, or amplify your XP gains during an intensive session, good Inventory management is essential for optimal learning and accelerated progression.

The 3 Inventory Tabs

Tab	Function	Content	Access
🎒 My Bag	Owned items	Potions, Shields, Scrolls, Tickets	Default tab
🛒 Shop	Purchase catalog	Merchant offering items for Gold	Secondary tab
🛡️ Active	Ongoing effects	Currently applied temporary boosts and protections	Tertiary tab

💡

Tip: The total number of items in your Bag is displayed on the 🎒 icon in the navigation dock. A numerical badge appears if you have unused items — handy so you don't forget them.

02

How to access

Rummage through your bag in one click

The Inventory is instantly accessible, no matter where you are in the Skillwaker application.

1

Open the navigation menu

Display the sidebar (dock) located on the left of your screen on desktop, or the bottom bar on mobile.

2

Click the Inventory icon

Select the Backpack 🎒 icon to view your gear and items.

3

Navigate between tabs

Use the My Bag, Shop, and Active tabs at the top of the screen to switch from your owned items to the shop catalog or ongoing effects.

💡

Contextual Shortcut: Direct access to the Inventory automatically appears when you try to launch a Raid Portal but lack Mana — you are redirected straight to Mana Potions to recharge instantly.

🎮

In technical terms: The Inventory is a single-page with tab-based UI. Switching tabs does not trigger a page reload — the transition is instantaneous on the client side.

03

The Gold Economy

Earn, save, invest

Gold is the virtual currency of Skillwaker. You earn it by studying and completing challenges, then reinvest it in the Shop to accelerate your progression. It's a virtuous cycle: the more you learn, the more you earn, the more you can optimize your learning.

🎮

In technical terms: Gold is a closed virtual currency (soft currency). It has no real monetary value and cannot be purchased with real money. Its economy is entirely meritocratic: only learning activity generates Gold.

Sources of Gold income

Source	Gold Earned	Frequency
⚔️ Raid Portal (Quiz)	Variable based on score	Every completed quiz
🎯 Daily Quest	Flat bonus + Streak bonus	1×/day
⬆️ Level Up	Milestone reward	Every level-up
🏆 Badges & Achievements	First-time completion bounty	Once per badge
👥 Guild Bonus	Team multiplier	When Guild is active

⚠️

Important: Gold can neither be bought with real money nor traded between users. It is a 100% meritocratic economy — every Gold piece reflects genuine learning effort.

The Shop (Merchant)

The catalog of strategic items

The Shop is where your Gold comes into play. The Merchant offers a catalog of items that is regularly updated. Each item has a Gold cost and a specific tactical effect — from a simple Mana recharge to a Streak protective shield.

🎮

In technical terms: The Shop is an In-App Store exclusively using soft currency (Gold). No real money purchases are possible. The catalog follows a limited rotation model: certain items only appear during seasonal or promotional events.

Merchant's Catalog

Item	Category	Effect	Availability
🧪 Mana Potion (Minor)	Consumable	+50 Mana	Permanent
🧪 Mana Elixir (Major)	Consumable	100% Mana	Permanent
🎫 Raid Ticket	Consumable	1 free-entry quiz	Permanent
🛡️ Streak Shield	Protection	Saves 1 day of Streak	Permanent
📜 Scroll of Knowledge	Boost	+50% XP (1h)	Permanent
🏷️ Event Items	Special	Variable	Limited (events)

🪙 Circular Economy

Earn Gold by studying (Quests, Quizzes, Badges) and spend it to optimize your future review sessions.

🏷️ Promotions & Events

Keep an eye on the Shop! Exclusive items or special discounts may appear during seasonal events.

📦 Unlimited Stock

Buy as many copies as you want to build up your reserves. Purchased items go directly to your Bag.

👑

Awakened Privilege: Premium users enjoy a permanent discount on all items in the Shop. Check the Subscription page to compare Novice and Awakened offers.

05

Consumables & Mana

Recharge your energy for Raids

Consumables are single-use items. Once activated, they permanently disappear from your Bag and apply their effect immediately. These are your emergency resources to keep up your learning pace.

🎮

In technical terms: Consumables are single-use items with immediate effect (immediate consumption). They interact directly with the Mana gauge (time-regenerating energy system) or bypass its constraints via access Tickets.

Item	Immediate Effect	Ideal Usage
🧪 Mana Potion (Minor)	Restores 50 Mana points	To quickly run a short quiz between two sessions
🧪 Mana Elixir (Major)	Fully restores the Mana gauge (100%)	For a long, intensive review session
🎫 Raid Ticket	Allows entry into a Raid Portal without consuming Mana	Bypasses the energy constraint for a strategic quiz

How to activate a consumable?

1

Open the "My Bag" tab

Access your Inventory and select the 🎒 My Bag tab.

2

Click on the desired item

Tap the Potion, Elixir, or Ticket you want to use.

3

Confirm activation

A dialog box asks for confirmation. Validate to apply the effect instantly.

06

Boosts & Protections

Passive effects to secure and speed up your XP

Unlike instant Consumables, Boosts and Protections apply a passive effect over a set duration or under a specific condition. They are your long-term strategic allies.

🎮

In technical terms: Boosts are time-limited modifiers (buffs) that alter XP gains. Protections are conditional triggers (insurances) that automatically fire when a negative event occurs.

🛡️ Streak Shield (Streak Freeze)

The most strategic item. Triggers automatically if you miss your Daily Quest before midnight — your streak of consecutive days is saved. Destroyed upon use.

📜 Scroll of Knowledge (XP Boost)

Applies an XP multiplier (+50%) for 1 hour. Activate it right before clearing several Raid Portals to maximize your leveling.

Item	Effect Type	Duration	Trigger
🛡️ Streak Shield	Streak Protection	Unlimited (until triggered)	Automatic (missed day)
📜 Scroll of Knowledge	+50% XP	1 hour (real-time)	Manual (voluntary activation)

⚠️

Warning: The timer for Scrolls of Knowledge counts down in real-time, even if you log off. Only activate them when you are ready to chain quizzes!

07

Active Effects

Monitor your ongoing bonuses

The Active 🛡️ tab of the Inventory displays all passive effects currently applied to your account in real time. It's your buffs dashboard: remaining durations, effect types, and protection statuses.

🎮

In technical terms: The Active tab is an Active Buffs Dashboard. It shows ongoing modifiers with a countdown timer for temporal effects and a binary status (equipped/unequipped) for conditional protections.

Information	Description
📛 Effect Name	Type of active bonus (e.g., "Scroll of Knowledge +50% XP")
⏱️ Time Remaining	Countdown before expiration (for temporal effects)
🛡️ Protection Status	Indicates if a Streak Shield is equipped and ready to trigger
📊 Active Multiplier	XP amplification factor currently applied

💡

Tip: Check the Active tab before starting a quiz to see if a Scroll of Knowledge is still running. If so, take the opportunity to chain Raid Portals while the bonus is active!

08

Pro Tips & Advice

Become a logistics master

🛡️

Foresight: Always keep at least one Streak Shield in reserve. The unexpected happens, and losing a 30-day streak is extremely frustrating! Build a stash of 2 to 3 Shields to sleep soundly.

📈

XP Combo: The best time to activate a Scroll of Knowledge (+50% XP) is right as you're about to complete the Daily Quest AND several quizzes in one sitting. The bonuses stack with the Combo multiplier!

👛

Strategic Saving: Don't spend all your Gold early on. Special events might bring exclusive, high-priced items to the Shop. Keep a Gold reserve for these rare occasions.

🔮

Mana Management: If your Mana is low, take the time to study in the Archives (free access, no Mana cost). Return to the Raid Portals when it has regenerated — or use a Potion.

🎯

Quest Priority: Always start your session with the Daily Quest. It's the fastest way to maintain your Streak, rack up bonus Gold, and lock in your daily progression.

👑

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about the Skillwaker Inventory

Can items in the Skillwaker Inventory expire?

No, as long as an item is in your Bag (unactivated), it is permanently yours and cannot expire. Only activated Boosts (like the Scroll of Knowledge) have a temporal validity that ticks down in real time after activation.

Can I equip multiple Streak Shields at once on Skillwaker?

You can hold multiple Streak Shields in your inventory, but only one is consumed per missed day. If you have 3 Shields in stock, you are protected against missing 3 consecutive days of quests. Build a stockpile to guard against the unexpected.

How do I earn more Gold for the Skillwaker Shop?

Gold is primarily acquired by beating Raid Portals (quizzes) with good scores, completing your Daily Quest (flat bonus + Streak bonus), leveling up, and unlocking Badges. Joining an active Guild can also grant you earning multipliers.

Can I sell or trade items with other players on Skillwaker?

Skillwaker's economy is closed and personal. Player-to-player trading or selling items back to the Merchant is not supported. Every piece of Gold earned reflects your personal learning effort — it is a 100% meritocratic economy.

What is Mana in Skillwaker and how do I recharge it?

Mana is the energy required to launch a quiz (Raid Portal). It regenerates naturally at a rate of 10 points per hour. To refill it instantly, use a Mana Potion (Minor, +50 pts) or a Mana Elixir (Major, 100%) from your Inventory. Awakened (Premium) users have unlimited Mana.

Can Skillwaker Gold be purchased with real money?

No. Gold is a closed virtual currency (soft currency) that cannot be bought with real money or converted to monetary value. The only way to get it is through active learning: quizzes, quests, level ups, and badges.

How do I know if a Streak Shield is active in Skillwaker?

Open your Inventory and check the 🛡️ Active tab. If a Streak Shield is equipped, it will show up with the status "Active Protection". You can also check the 🎒 My Bag tab to see how many Shields you have available in stock.
