Skills

Players are able to use a series of unique skills from three different pools in BWRP: Novice, Profession, and Race. Novice skills are able to be chosen by any character minus the doctor, while Profession and racial skills are locked to each character’s individual professions and races.

You may also unlock additional abilities with roleplay.

Novice Skills

Novice skills are mostly combat abilities that sometimes inform important character traits and roleplay opportunities. They will be outlined here.

  • Band Together: Use your shield to cover you and your allies and counter direct attacks for a short while.
  • Thrust: A character thrusts their weapon forward in a strike with increased range that pierces enemies.
  • Bloodthirst: A character is often invigorated by the bloodlust, restoring health when killing monsters or attacking players.
  • Cleave: A sweeping blow in a cone in front of the character that damages and pushes back enemies a small distance.
  • Hard Target: A character’s erratic movements make them harder to hit and granting them increased evasion from attacks.
  • Force: A low damage attack that forces characters and monsters away a large distance.
  • Daze: A suckerpunch that disables the target and exhausts the user for a short period of time.
  • Quickshot: Quickly shoots an arrow.
  • Field Medic: A character is trained in field medicine and can tend to wounds and heal a target.
  • Dart: Fires a dart in a line.
  • Spark Burst: A small magical burst of fire.
  • Brawler: Your hands can be used as weapons. Your punches are stronger, and you can cast the skill to do an uppercut.
