Skinning

Skinning is a feature which helps players to obtain leather and other Creature Products, which can then be used to receive Outfits and Addons. To use this feature you need an Obsidian Knife, which can be obtained in the Obsidian Knife Quest.

== Method ==
The Obsidian Knife can only be used on recently killed creatures, bodies in their first decay state. To use it, you simply use the knife's Use With feature and target the body.
Most of the time, you won't get Creature Products if you skin a body. If you failed, you will see a yellow spark. If you see green sparkles, the product of the specific creature will have appeared in the same container as your Obsidian Knife. The chance of getting a dead body skinned successfully varies from creature to creature.
Since the 2015 Winter Update corpses can be skinned immediately after the creature died, so you do not need to wait 10 seconds anymore before being able to skin a corpse. As corpses can only be skinned in their first state of decay, this gives you a time frame of 300 seconds during which a corpse is skinnable. After skinning a body, it will automatically rot one level (to the second state of decay) to prevent multiple skins on the same corpse.
There are two exceptions to the two rules mentioned above: both the corpse of the Lord of the Elements and of The Mutated Pumpkin can be skinned multiple times, at a 100% success rate (but still only once per player).
 The Scavenge charm enhances your chances to successfully skin or dust a skinnable or dustable creature. This charm adds 25% to the chance of having success when skinning or dusting the creature it is assigned to. For example, if the success chance is originally 5%, it becomes 30% after assigning the charm. Note that this charm is rather useful when attempting to skin the rare spawning Albino Dragon for its valuable Albino Dragon Leather. Also, with skinning Dragons, you can earn a decent profit if the Green Dragon Leathers are going for 4-5k each on your Server.
You can obtain the achievement Skin-Deep by successfully skinning creatures 500 times.
