Abilities

Abilities are skills or powers a unit can have that are not [just] bound to a specific weapon. These Abilities can either serve as a boost to the unit's capabilities, or completely shape them in such ways a weapon could not. Some Abilities affect the unit passively, while most will have a cooldown after it is performed. As Abilities are not classified as weapons, their stats cannot be altered by any means.

Many default units have Abilities, and these same abilities are available in the Unit Creator; however, a few units' abilities are different than their Unit Creator counterparts. Still, the Unit Creator offers many abilities that none of the default units possess. Custom units can have up to five Abilities.

There are currently 93 abilities available in the game, including both those used by vanilla units and those only available in the Unit Creator. Below is a list of Abilities available in the Unit Creator. Hover above their icon to view their descriptions or click on them to visit their respective pages.

Trivia

• You can select an ability with both your right and left clicks at the same time. This equips your unit with two abilities simultaneously, allowing you to surpass the 5-abilities limit, which brings the limit up to 24. But you can also use other methods that can bring the limit even higher.
