Automating the Skill Shop in Viking Rise

The Skill Shop rerolls daily and hands you two free refreshes on top. Both of those expire unused on any account nobody visits — which, on a farm, is all of them.

This guide assumes you've completed Viking Rise bot setup.

Turning it on is not enough. Tick a currency. With neither resources nor gems allowed, the action can buy nothing.

What the action does

The shop sits in your village, not your city. The bot reads it and buys from it without walking there and without opening the page, so a pass that finds nothing worth buying costs almost nothing.

The stock is the eight items the shop is offering right now. It changes once a day on its own, and again every time you refresh it. A refresh rerolls all eight — you get two free a day, and after those the game charges gems on a rising scale.

Setting it up

The Skill Shop action settings, showing the resource and gem purchase checkboxes and the paid refresh count — Nothing is ticked by default, so a freshly added copy never spends anything.

Tick what you're willing to spend:

Use resources to buy — food and wood. These are the cheap rows.
Use gems to buy — gems are real currency, so this is deliberately its own switch. The game does not ask you to confirm a gem purchase, so this checkbox is the only thing standing between the bot and your gems.
Use gems to refresh the stock, plus how many paid refreshes per pass (up to 8). The two free refreshes are always used first and are never counted against this number.

Ticking the refresh box but leaving the number at 0 can never cost you anything — both are required.

Add more than one copy with its own schedule: the stock rerolls daily and the free refreshes reset with it, so a morning copy and an evening copy get two separate bites.

Troubleshooting

Nothing is bought and nothing is reported wrong. Either nothing is ticked, or there's nothing in the current stock you've allowed. Both are clean, cheap no-ops — it'll buy the moment the stock rerolls into something you allow.

A row was skipped. You couldn't afford it. The pass buys everything else it can and reports what it actually spent, not what it intended to.

It won't use my free refreshes. They're used first and automatically whenever a refresh is warranted — you don't need the gem box for those.

The shop isn't unlocked on this account. The pass quietly does nothing and starts working by itself once you unlock it. Same if the village isn't unlocked at all.

I'm playing on that account myself. The bot reads the shop without opening it, so it doesn't fight you for the screen.
