Skills
Skills are special moves that can be executed by characters which deal greater amounts of damage than normal moves at the cost of Mana (MP) or at some special circumstances, Health Points (HP). Skills can be added or learnt by inputting Skill Points (SP). 2SP is given at every level, but through the usage of temporary SP Scrolls, one can gain an extra amount of SP for a period of time. Every skill has a Mastery Level of 5 after which one cannot invest any more SP. However, through the use of Skill Rings, one can increase the level of the Skills that the ring can increase. These can be obtained from the cash shop and ice-burners. The highest level one can obtain for a skill is 10.
Skills that you wish to use can be placed in these "Skill Slots". The letters: A, S, D, C are the hotkeys that must be pressed to execute the respective skill.
As seen in the above picture, after a skill is used (in normal circumstances) there will be a cooldown counter which has to be counted down before a skill can be used again.
It is possible to have a second set of skills equipped for use by purchasing the B-Skill Slot from the cash shop. This allows you to alternate between two different sets of skills, allowing more variety in the use of skills.
There are numerous skills in the world of Elsword, these can be split into three categories, Passives, Actives and Special Actives, each of which have their special characteristics and abilities.
Passives
Passives as implied by the name itself, is a skill that cannot be used by the character but instead enhances the stats or abilities of the character.
An example, as seen in the picture is a passive called "Intermediate Strength Training" which increases the physical attack power of the character.
However, not all passives increase stats as the one stated above. There are many other passives in higher job advancements that grant you special abilities limited to that particular class.
