Overview

Initially, characters are equipped with four skills: Push Kick, Fire/Reload, Dagger Slash and Throw Lantern.

Characters are able to learn new skills in a variety of ways:

  • Teachers (usually denoted by the Teacher icon on a city's map) offer a number of both active and passive skills, and are where BreakthroughIcon breakthrough points are spent.
  • Trainers usually offer one skill for 50 SilverIcon.
  • Players can also receive skills as a reward for completing Quests, or successfully negotiating dialogue encounters in the world

Example of tier 3 skills locking out

When training at a Teacher, you are presented with a menu similar to Warrior Monk example shown.

Tier 1 skills:

  • There is no restriction to buying them all.
  • Usually 50 SilverIcon or 100 SilverIcon.

Tier 2 (Breakthrough) skills:

  • Known as Breakthrough skills.
  • A Breakthrough Point is spent when learning these, and you only have a total of 3 points.
  • Required to access Tier 3 skills on that tree.

Tier 3 skills:

  • Can only be bought from a tree once you've unlocked that tree's Breakthrough skill.
  • You can only learn one paired skill, the other skill will be locked out. Paired skills are skills which are touching side by side, like the top two rows in the Warrior Monk example

Trainers

Trainers can be found in many locations. They usually offer skills for 50 SilverIcon, or as a reward for successfully negotiating dialogue.

On this Wiki, Trainer skills are usually listed as Tier 1 skills.
