Skills | Introduction DB: Xenoverse Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The game would be boring if fighting was based only on combos. The player can use a wide range of techniques that they can choose for the character and use in battles. You'll acquire them by completing Parallel Quests, learning from mentors or buying in Skill Shop. The techniques are divided into three categories:
Super Attack Skills - you can choose up to four techniques for the character. This category contains basic attack and defence skills used in fights. They use 100 Ki, which is a single part of the energy bar. Their effects vary significantly, from combos, through energy waves, to transformations and defensive barriers.
Ultimate Attack Skills - skills that use Ki energy. Identical to Strike Skills, just much more powerful. They cost 300 Ki, but it's proportional to damage done. You can give the character two skills of this type.
Evasive Skills - these techniques are purely defensive. You can use most of them when you're being attacked, to reduce the damage that you take. These techniques use stamina, not Ki. You can give your character only one of these.
