Gaining Abilities[]

Players can earn Ability Points, which can be put into abilities to make them stronger, from leveling up, or using a special item to upgrade their ability ranks.

Librams or magical tomes can gift abilities if studied without facing the ability point requirement. These are one-time use items that disappear upon being used by one person.

Gaining abilities should not be mistaken as training abilities. A learned ability can easily fizzle without practice.

Using Abilities[]

Magical ability is shown if you have any MP (mana points) or Magic skill. Mana is the energy used for (mostly) all abilities, draining all at once or progressively. When an ability is used. Magic skill is how strong, effective, and talented you are at spells. Having high skill is not a substitute for practicing new abilities.

Abilities can fail or even backfire due to low skill and practice. This is called an ability fizzling. For example, a low combat skill may result in Dash failing or possibly backfiring, Dashing you to the wrong direction.
