Skills are the special abilities of a unit. Most are specific to some classes, while others can be learned through the use of items known as scrolls. Note: Skill names, effects and activation rates may vary from game to game or get changed/replaced before the first RPG including them. Skill (Units that can get the skill) -Description Starting Class Skills These skills come with the starting classes or are gained when a trainee promotes to that class. A character with a class specific skill cannot be given a character skill. Ballista (Archers) -Allows the unit to maneuver ballistae present on the battlefield. Archers lose this skill when promoting to Rangers. Canne (Practicians) -Allows unit to equip staves and use them offensively. The staff’s weight is considered its might and the St of the unit is used. The staff’s doesn’t lose uses when counterattacking.

The unit gains 20 Exp. Instinct (Nomads) -The unit can move over rivers and mountains at 5 movement cost and forests at 2 movement cost. Unit’s movement is reduced by 2 instead of halved during rain and snow. While on plains, the unit is unaffected by enemy skill effects, except those that activate during battle. Spirit Heal (Shamans) - Allows unit to heal an ally by a random amount. Unit’s St and MSt affect the number. Steal (Thieves) -Allows unit to steal a random amount of money from an enemy with less Sp than the unit. The unit gains 10 Exp. Tree-chop (Brigands, Fighters, Pirates) - If an enemy in a forest is within attacking range, you may use Chop to inflict damage equal to [St + 5 – Enemy’s Def]; unit gains 10 Exp if damage is dealt.

If a nearby ally also has Triangle Attack, the attack will be an assured critical hit. This skill might fail sometimes on certain enemies. |
