added section on Ability Tags
When an enemy is slain and it drops special loot (cyan, yellow, purple colour), there is a distinctive sound and a particle effect.
==Ability Tags==
Some abilities are classified as "Nice Attack", "Core Attack", "Epic Attack", or "Signature Debuff". These keywords determine when certain effects apply. For example there is a Sword Treasure Effect "For 6 seconds after using Precision Pierce, your Nice Attacks deal +64 damage". This will boost the damage of all abilities which are tagged as "Nice Attacks" (this will affect Nice Attacks from any skill, not only Sword's Nice Attacks.
Within each category there are some similarities. For example Epic Attacks tend to have high damage and long cooldowns. However, there is no gameplay effect for any category other than as keywords to determine when effects will proc. The only exception is the "Basic Attack" keyword, which will trigger a [[Combat Refresh]].
