Eldara Early, Mid, and Late Training Tables

This planner is a set of tables you can copy into a note. It is not a calculator, not a browser overlay, and not a promise that a row takes N hours. Eldara 1.0 has seventeen skills, offline progress, and a Firemaking lever that speeds all of them. Your job is to park one action that feeds the next bottleneck. The skill training priority page explains the ranking philosophy. This page prints the order.

Use the seventeen-skill map when you forget which output feeds which bench. Use the rebirth reset planner when the question is prestige rather than training. Both planners are filed on the planners hub. Use this page when the question is “what do I idle tonight?”

How to read the tables

Do now is the action that should already be running if the previous row is healthy.

Support is the skill you keep warm so the Do now row does not starve.

Ignore as a focus does not mean the skill is fake. It means you only touch it for a quest, a dungeon input, or a pet that is actually close.

If two Do now rows argue, Firemaking wins. If Firemaking and food argue, cook until the hunt can sit, then light the fire again. Eldara is idle; you are allowed to change the parked action when you are back at the desk.

Early table — light the account

Early means the first stretch of a save, before dungeons are the hobby.

Priority	Skill	Role	Park this when…
1	Firemaking	Global XP accelerator	Almost always. Logs in bank.
2	Woodcutting	Logs for fires	The fire is hungry or about to be.
3	Cooking	Auto-eat / food	You want any combat skill to run offline.
4	Mining	Ore for Smithing	You can see the smithy in your near future.
5	Hitpoints	Survival	A parked hunt might last longer than your food brain.
6	Defence	Survival	Same as Hitpoints, especially before overnight combat.
7	Smithing	First gear	You have bars and still wear junk.

Early support: Fishing or Cultivating only when the cook is waiting on raw food or plants. Fletching only if you already know you are a ranger. Crafting only if you already know you are a Hammer mage or need a specific part.

Early ignore-as-focus: Thieving, Hunting, Cremating, and the two combat styles you are not maining. Dip them for Codex later.

New players should still read the day-one walkthrough before they treat this table as a speedrun. Enable Cloud. Learn the idle window on how to play. Then copy row one.

Mid table — pick a lane

Mid starts when fires and food can run without panic. Now you choose combat, gathering, or artisan as the week’s lane. You will still train all three over the life of the save.

Combat lane mid table

Priority	Skill	Notes
1	Firemaking	Never drop it.
2	Cooking	Hunts die when plates die.
3	One of Melee / Range / Magic	One. See combat loadouts.
4	Defence + Hitpoints	Support the parked style.
5	Smithing or Fletching or Crafting	Match the style’s bench.
6	Woodcutting or Mining	Feed that bench and the fire.

Gathering lane mid table

Priority	Skill	Notes
1	Firemaking	Accelerator still rules.
2	Woodcutting + Mining	Logs and ore are the economy.
3	Cultivating	Reagents and plant food. Sprout lives here.
4	Fishing	When the cook is input-gated.
5	Thieving / Hunting	Scheduled blocks, not vibes.
6	Cooking	You still have to eat if you hunt at all.

Artisan lane mid table

Priority	Skill	Notes
1	Firemaking	House fantasy and XP lever.
2	Smithing / Fletching / Crafting	Pick the bench your gear story needs.
3	Cooking	Food is an artisan product.
4	Cremating	Once combat throws bones.
5	Woodcutting + Mining	Inputs.
6	One combat style	You still need a set to wear.

House standing can swap two mid rows. Ashen Legion likes combat outputs, Verdant Circle likes gathering, Gilded Hammer likes benches. Donations can cut rivals, so do not donate the input the next row needs. Faction caution: three houses.

Late table — pets, lairs, prestige prep

Late is the same seventeen skills with different reasons.

Goal	Skills to park	Stop when
Missing pets	The unmastered skill, plus Firemaking	The companion is in the Codex.
Dungeon ready	Main style, Defence, Hitpoints, Cooking	Sunken Crypt or Ignarath’s throne is an honest idle, not a dare.
Mythic ready	Matching style only	The melee, range, or magic exam is the one you parked.
Cape lottery	Melee set, food, patience	You understand 0.03% and still want the Abyssal Cape.
Rebirth soon	Finish a close mastery; wear the set you will refine	You have read the keep/reset list.
Hardcore	Whatever is safest	You remember it is one life.

Late-game Thieving and Hunting become Do now when their pet or a dungeon input is the bottleneck. They do not become Do now because the names sound active. Cremating becomes Do now when the bone pile is the joke of the bank.

Combat pets such as Steelfang, Sharpeye, and Whisper are late-table rewards for the style you already idle, not a reason to split three loadouts. Gathering pets such as Sprout are late-table rewards for the Circle-shaped loop. Rank them on pet rankings by domain and unlock them on the skill pets roster.

A nightly script you can actually follow

1. Is Firemaking lit? If no, Woodcutting or Firemaking. End of script.
2. Is food ready for the hunt you claim you will park? If no, Cooking or its gathering input.
3. Are you within a mastery of a pet you want before rebirth? If yes, that skill.
4. Else park the lane table you circled this week.
5. Do not donate, prestige, or enter a throne at 1 a.m. because a table looked complete.

Print the late-game table only after Firemaking is carrying the account. Skipping the early rows to save time is how gathering and artisan skills lag a full rebirth behind combat.
