Skill Order

[Strabo]

Does it matter when you should train up skills? For example, if I was creating a char that will need reliable high mage, should that be the skill worked on first? (if finances were available that is). What I'm wondering mainly is, does skill gain become harder to achieve as we get closer to our skill cap?

no

What ben said is essentially right, however if you want to be more effective there are some skills you should work before others such as if you want magery, med, eval, and resist you can walk magery, med and resist at the same time but its best to do so before you gm eval because you will be causing more damage to yourself per spell.

I think stats are the most important concern during skill training. Higher dex will help with training weapon skills, and if you wanna' train Magery too, make sure you have the Int to cast lots of spells (especially if you aren't going to have Meditation), or it can become quite a chore to train it, hehe.
