Category:Skills

Skills are abilities learned by Dragons, based on their Elements, when sent to the Dragon Academy. Each skill learned is added to that Dragon's Elemental attack in battle, and each skill has two possible masteries at level 6.

Upgrade Cost

Skills can be raised to a maximum of 6 levels, and at Level 6, a skill is mastered by receiving one of two additional effects, at the Trainer's choice. Skill upgrades are bought with Gold and Scrolls.

The following is a summary of all Skills, grouped together into one table, displaying the Level 6 skill and mastery for each. For skill Levels 1-5 please see each skill's linked page. Note that a previously selected mastery skill can be changed instantly any time, in exchange for 15 Scrolls and 35 Gems.

Element	Skill	Mastery	Description
Fire	Explosive Results Deals an additional 85% DAS damage to all other opponents, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Hot Coals	Defeating the primary target damages all other opponents again by the same 85% DAS. This damage is affected by Stone Shield but does not trigger Death Mark and is also affected by Element resistance and weakness.
		Slow Burn	Inflicts damage over time on the target for two turns by 50% of the caster's DAS each turn. This damage is not reduced by Stone Shield and does not trigger Vengeful Sword or Death Mark, but is affected by Element resistance and weakness.
Wind	Dark Clouds Reduces target's damage 90% DAS, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Storm's A-Brewin'	Reduces all other opponents' damage by 40% DAS.
		Last Breath	Reduces target's damage for 2 additional turns.
Earth	Stone Shield Absorbs 120% DAS incoming direct damage for the allied target, 70% DAS incoming direct damage for others, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Stone Cold	Target absorbs 50% DAS indirect damage and stays alive for 1 additional turn after it is defeated.
		Tombstone	Target's shield lasts for 2 additional turns and absorbs 40% DAS indirect damage. Other allies absorb 20% DAS indirect damage.
Water	Revitalize Revitalize Heals allied target for 150% DAS HP and all other allies for 55% DAS HP and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Restorative Recourse	Removes negative effects from allied target Dragon such as Slow Burn, Dark Clouds, Poison, Power of Thunder, Dazzling Aura, Creeping Shadows and Death Mark.
		Regeneration	Regenerates allied target for 2 turns by 75% DAS HP each turn. Heals target before damage over time effects apply, such as Slow Burn, Poison and Creeping Shadows. It can be used multiple times by one caster, but only the duration is prolonged. However, it is stackable when used by different casters.
Plant	Poison Deals 80% DAS as damage each turn, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Infection	If a target with an active Infection effect is defeated by any means, the poison spreads to the remaining current opponent dragons (a second wave remains unaffected) and they are dealt 80% DAS for 2 turns. It is stackable only if the Infection is from different casters (if the casting Dragon is the same for both, then the effect is only prolonged).
		Pandemic	Poison lasts 1 additional turn.
Metal	Vengeful Sword Primary aura deals 125% DAS to a direct attacker and 40% DAS to an indirect attacker; secondary aura deals 50% DAS to a direct attacker and 30% DAS to an indirect attacker, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	En Garde	Primary aura absorbs 20% DAS incoming damage.
		Final Vengeance	If a target with the primary aura is defeated, deals 80% DAS damage to all enemies.
Energy	Electric Jolt Deals an additional 90% DAS to another opponent, plus a 50% chance to deal an additional 80% DAS to a third opponent, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Burnout	Energy attack removes positive effects from the primary target, such as Regeneration, Stone Shield, Vengeful Sword, and Dominance. The positive effect is always removed before damage is dealt. Burnout does not remove Dazzling Aura.
		Power of Thunder	25% chance that the attack will stun the primary target for one turn.
Void	Life Steal Heals the caster by 85% DAS HP, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Pay It Forward	Hitting a target heals the caster and its allies by 30% DAS HP.
		Dark Ritual	When a target with one or more positive effects is hit, using this skill transfers all effects to the caster where it lasts for the effects' remaining time, but not more than 2 rounds.
Light	Solar Flare Deals additional 85% DAS damage to all other opponents, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Dazzling Aura	15% chance to stun the opponent for one turn when the caster gets hit. This mastery is a passive skill, thus being active all the time without the need to cast it. It is not affected by Burnout or Frightened Speechless.
		Healing Light	80% chance to heal all Dragons for 10% DAS when the caster hits an opponent.
Shadow	Creeping Shadows Deals 80% DAS as damage each turn, and the trained secondary effect occurs:		50% chance to make the target unable to use any active skill for two turns. However, Dazzling Aura is not affected and can still be triggered by direct hits, as it is a passive skill.
		Shade of Oneself	Reduces target's base damage by 25% DAS for two turns.
Legendary	Death Mark Target takes 45% DAS extra damage when hit by any direct attack, and the trained secondary effect occurs:	Heroic Healing	When the marked enemy is hit, the caster receives 40% DAS HP.

Bugs and Issues
