Skills

An Echoes of Creation guide

Active Skills

Active skills cost MP and have cooldowns. Assign them to hotbar slots 1-9. Each class has unique skills that unlock at certain levels.

Passive Skills

Passive skills are always active once learned. They provide permanent bonuses to stats like HP, defense, dodge, move speed, and more.

Skill Tiers

Normal: Buy for 500g at Sage Elwin.

Rare: Buy for 100 Lumina at Sage Elwin.

Epic: Buy for 500 Lumina at Sage Elwin.

Legend: Buy for 10,000 Lumina at Sage Elwin - or learn one from a Sealed Legend Tome, an exceedingly rare drop from the Awakened Forgotten One raid.

Sealed Legend Tome

An exceedingly rare drop from the mightiest bosses (today: the Awakened Forgotten One raid). Every participant has their own chance on each kill - being there is all it takes to be eligible.

Use the tome at level 30+ to CHOOSE one legend skill of your class to learn (currently Titan's Wrath, Death's Embrace, Storm of Arrows, Angel's Blessing, or Ragebreaker - new legend skills join the selection as they are released).

The tome is bound to your account - it cannot be traded, sold, or listed on the Marketplace, so a spare stays with you as a trophy.

Delivered by mail when it drops, so it reaches you even if your bags were full or you left the arena.

Hotbar & Auto-Cast

Drag skills to hotbar slots from the Skills screen (K). The panel shows two rows: the keyed row (1-9) and an extra click-only row (slots 9-17, shown as the top bar on the HUD).

Drag a skill out of a slot and drop it anywhere to unassign it (or right-click to clear).

Right-click a slot to toggle auto-cast.

With auto-cast ON, the skill fires automatically in auto-combat when off cooldown and MP is available.

Auto-Heal (Cleric)

Clerics can auto-cast healing skills. In the Skills screen (K), drag a healing skill (Heal, Angel's Blessing) onto an Auto-Heal slot — or select the skill and click a slot.

Use the 'Heal below' stepper to set the HP threshold (10%–90%). During auto-combat your Cleric casts the heal as soon as HP drops below it — heals take priority over attack skills.

Drag a skill out of an Auto-Heal slot and drop it anywhere to clear it, or right-click the slot.

Party Support Skills

Five epic class skills (Lv 25, bought from Sage Elwin for 500 Lumina) support your whole party. Buffs and heals reach every member, even across maps:

Swordsman - Guardian's Roar: taunts nearby enemies onto you and grants the party +80 Defense for 3 minutes.

Ranger - Hunter's Boon: grants the party +60 Accuracy, +40 Dodge, and +8% Skill Speed for 3 minutes.

Cleric - Sacred Nova: heals you and all party members (scaled by your INT) and deals 180% AoE holy damage to nearby enemies.

Assassin - Killing Intent: sharpens the whole party's offense with +10% Attack Speed and +10% Damage for 3 minutes.

Warrior - Berserker's Warcry: whips the party into fury with +12% Damage for 3 minutes (the strongest pure-damage cry; same-stat buffs don't stack — the strongest wins).

All five can be cast solo too — the party buffs/heals still benefit you.
