An ability is a term that covers all the methods that a character can use to influence the outcome of combat. These include actions (attacks, spells, etc.), morale (morale abilities), and tactics.

Ability Supertypes[]

Action[]

Actions are the standard abilities of the game.

Morale[]

Morale abilities require morale to use them. There are four different ranks of morale abilities, with the more powerful abilities becoming unlocked as morale is gained.

Tactic[]

Tactics are passive abilities that increase your characters abilities in some way. To use them, you must slot them into your tactics slots. More slots become available as you increase in rank.

Ability types[]

Ailment[]

Blessing[]

Buff[]

Cripple[]

Curse[]

Damaging[]

Debuff[]

Defensive[]

Enchantment[]

Healing[]

Acquiring Abilities[]

All three ability types (actions, morale and tactics) are gained in two fashions (except tactics which are gained in 3 ways).

One set is gained based on your career as you level up, meaning that a basic package of attacks, spells, tactics etc. is available to each career according to level. You can, conceivably, fill out your bars, tactics and morale slots using just these if so desired.

Another set of abilities can be acquired through various means such as masteries, based upon your race, based upon completion of various PvE or RvR goals, etc. Because some of these are gained exclusively of others, most notably as mastery options, it is impossible for a single character to possess all the abilities that are technically available to his career.

Finally you can acquire new tactics with tome of knowledge unlocks.
