SOA or MINISKILLS
In order to become more proficient in 1vs1 combat
would SOA or Trans (Constitution/Thermology/Frost/Antidotes/ and Galvanism)
have more noticeable benefits in combat.
I understand SOA uses blunt/cutting and the MINISKILLS use magic based
defenses but I would still like informative input
Thanks!

I'd say SoA is better, but it is somewhat of a gamble. The SoA might not activate at all when you need it to.
SoA is also cheaper, when you consider that covering every damage type requires 7 miniskills plus avoidance.
It honestly depends what you're struggling with. If you have problems with classes that use a specific (non-physical) damage type, then picking up the miniskill(s) that will help with that would be the best investment. If you're struggling with physical damage then the SoA is obviously the best. Fitness for the asphyxiation damage reduction is always a good choice, since it helps against kai choke. If you don't really struggle with anything damage-wise, then the SoA would also probably be the best choice.

There's a small chance for random skill increases when using harvest hive. My sylvan is almost half way trained across her miniskills, and riding is up to Capable too now, I think. Getting a honeycomb from the shop of wonders lets you harvest hive twice a month instead of just the one. It's slow but awesome.
