Skills & Talents

Each skill lists the weapon types that enable it, the capabilities it grants, an energy charge cost, and mutually-exclusive groups (mutex) that stop you from stacking conflicting skills. Because skills key off your equipped weapon, your weapon choice shapes the whole kit.

Derived skills are follow-ups chained off a base skill through press, hold and support-button inputs. They're how combos and conditional finishers are expressed — extra inputs unlock extra actions rather than occupying separate slots.

Talents form a levelled graph: each talent has a maximum level, prerequisite talents, and the capabilities it grants. Progression means investing along a dependency chain, not flipping independent toggles.
