Additionally to the emphasis mentioned above, skills also have mastery abilities. For example, when you reach a skill rank of 5 in any weapon skill, you subtract your skill ranks from any Target Number penalties due to wounds. When you get to a skill rank of 10 in any weapon skill both your 9s and 10s on dice rolled explode (where you roll another dice and add it to the first, rather than just exploding on the normal 10).

These vary from skill to skill and basically reward you for getting to those higher levels of mastery.
