what are skills?
skills are your combat moves - both attacks and defenses. each skill has
different timing, stamina cost, and tactical use. you unlock more skills
by defeating enemies and completing challenges.
seeing your skills
'skills' lists all available combat moves (attacks and defenses).
'help <skill>' shows detailed info: stamina cost, timing, counters.
attack skills
punch left/right quick jab, 5 stamina, 3000ms hit time, 15% damage
roundhouse heavy kick, 8 stamina, 3000ms hit time, 25% damage
sweep low kick, 6 stamina, 3000ms hit time, 18% damage
attacks always need a target. start combat with: punch left goblin
defense skills
dodge left/right sidestep, 3 stamina, 800ms window, 2700ms recovery
parry high/low deflection, 4 stamina, 400ms window, 3100ms recovery
duck crouch, 3 stamina, 600ms window, 2900ms recovery
jump leap, 4 stamina, 600ms window, 2900ms recovery
defenses work both in and out of combat. you can practice them anytime.
stamina costs
every skill drains stamina. attacks and defenses both cost stamina when used.
stamina regenerates slowly over time. if you run out, you can't use skills
until it refills. manage your stamina carefully in long fights.
locked skills
some skills require you to meet conditions before you can use them:
roundhouse: defeat 5 enemies
sweep: defeat 3 goblins
locked skills show [LOCKED] in their help text with unlock requirements.
