'''Abilities''' are special perks that can be equipped by the player, granting various bonuses such as extra [[damage]], extra [[stats]], protection from [[status effects]], increased [[Technic]] casting speed, and various other benefits. They are obtained by levelling [[Types]], with each Type earning different abilities as they gain levels.
'''Abilities''' are special perks that can be equipped to gain a variety of bonuses, ranging from extra damage, to extra defense, to improved attack mechanics. A limited amount of abilities can be equipped at any one time, limited by the player's ability slots. They can be equipped, and un-equipped, at the Type Counter under the "Customize Abilities" menu.


Abilities are not locked to the Type that earns them; almost all abilities can be used on every Type, giving players who level all of their Types extra options over those who focus on one Type only.
Abilities are gained by levelling up Types, with each Type having their own abilities as they level up, although many abilities are shared amongst the Types. Most abilities can be used on any Type once it has been unlocked, although there are a few which can only be used by a specific Type.
 
Abilities can be equipped and unequipped at will at the [[Type Counter]] in the [[Battle Shop]], giving players the ability to use all sorts of different builds without being locked into one playstyle. A limited amount of abilities can be equipped at once however, limited by the player's ability slots.

1 ability slot will be gained for every 5 type levels, up to level 20, and 4 ability slots are gained upon a character's first Rebirth. Below is a table showing how many ability slots a player will have given their Type level.
