Hero Specialty Skills

Introduction

In the world of battles and adventure, there exist special abilities known as Hero Specialty Skills (HSS). These powerful skills can be acquired and utilized to gain an edge in combat. Each HSS is like an infinite consumable item that grants temporary bonuses to the player, providing unique effects and enhancing various aspects of their abilities.

The realm of HSS encompasses 20 different skills, each bestowing a distinct bonus when consumed. These skills possess remarkable effects that can turn the tide of battle in your favor. Each skill has a specific duration, cooldown period, and Fury consumption, making strategic management essential. Remember, only one Hero Specialty Skill can be active in your inventory at a time.
