Epic Fight
Skill Books (Epic Fight)
Skill books teach Epic Fight skills: dodges, guards, movement abilities, identity skills and passives that work with any weapon. Unlike a weapon’s innate skill, a learned skill belongs to the player. A player’s equipped skills, one per slot, are their skill set.
How it works#
- Get a book. Every book is the same Skill Book item carrying one skill.
- Learn it. Right-click the book and press Learn.
- Equip it. Open the Skill Editor (K, or the Combat Skills tab in the inventory, see Inventory Tabs) and put the skill in its slot.
| Slot | Holds | Key |
|---|---|---|
| Dodge | A dodge, such as Roll or Step | Left Alt |
| Guard | A guard or parry skill | Right mouse |
| Mobility | A movement skill | Space |
| Identity | A special combat skill | Depends on the skill |
| Passive 1–3 | Three passive skills | Always on |
| Arts | EpicFight Nightfall’s combat arts | C |
Details#
- Players start with no dodge or guard. The Prologue quest Epic Combat gives four books: Guard, Parry, Step and a Soul-like Dodge. See Dodging & Parrying.
- Where books come from:
- Crafting. Soulrend has a recipe for each of the 53 books below, and the Epic Fight quest chapter asks for each one, in four tiers.
- Chests. Epic Fight puts Guard, Roll, Step, Berserker, Stamina Pillager, Technician, Swordmaster and Phantom Ascent books into some vanilla structure chests.
- Not from mobs. Soulrend turns Epic Fight’s mob drops of skill books off.
- Learned skills are kept on death.
- Swapping has a cooldown. After replacing an equipped skill, the slot can’t be changed again for 5 minutes.
