*Power is consumed by using abilities that have a Power cost (most skills, like emergency abilities, that have no Power requirement, typically have a longer cooldown). The amount of Power available and your ability to recover Power between encounters is very important if you hope to take on more than one enemy at once, or even solo dungeons.

|[[Fire Magic]] || Using Fire to destroy your enemies. This is a very potent offensive skill, including long-range and area-effect attacks, and even some Cold attacks for versatility. However, there are drawbacks: Fire magic is extremely Power-intensive; all creatures generate extra Rage when they are burned; and many creatures have some resistance to fire.  || Talk with [[Velkort]]

This is a weapon for crushing enemies, no more and no less. || Reach a higher Favor level with [[Agrashab]].

Combat Refresh is the system used to restore armor, health, and power while in-combat. (It will not auto refill in-combat.)
Activating a skill's Basic Attack will activate this, on a 15 second cool down, not all skills have basic attacks that will activate this, however.

  • Wearing different types of armor will boost the effects that combat refresh can give.
    • Metal ⇒ Armor and Power
    • Leather ⇒ Health, Armor, and Power
    • Cloth ⇒ Health and Power
    • Organic (crafted) ⇒ a small amount of Armor, Power, and Health.
