Every Hero you collect has five (5) abilities called Skills that can be unlocked and upgraded by raising the character’s Ooze Level (
).
The larger, central skill of each character is their Super Skill. These unlock at Ooze Level () 1, and are upgraded at level 75 and level 175.
To view Skills when in the main menu, view the Hero Profile and tap any of the five (5) skills at the top. This will also show you the possible upgrades for that Skill.
To view Skills when in combat, tap on one of your squad members or on an opponent. You can view helpful information about the character including the Skills they have unlocked.
Super Skills are charged up over time both by the character’s own actions and actions taken against them. While in combat, the status of your heroes’ Super Skills are shown at the bottom of the screen.
Once a Super Skill is ready, it will light up. It can then be tapped on to activate it immediately and automatically target an enemy, or it can be tapped and held in order to target it precisely.
The skills to the right side, with circled arrows surrounding them, are Auto Skills. The first Auto skill unlocks at Level 10 and is upgraded at Level 100, while the second unlocks at Level 150 and is upgraded at Level 250. Auto skills are activated periodically. Unlike Super Skills, Auto Skills cannot be targeted directly.
The skills to the left side with plain circles are Passive Skills. The first Passive skill unlocks at Level 50 and is upgraded at Level 200, while the second unlocks at level 125 and is upgraded at level 225. Passive skills can be Status or Special Effects that are always applied, or they can happen in reaction to other things happening, like getting attacked or a character getting KO’d.
Skills unlock with the hero’s Ooze Level () which is increased by upgrading the hero with Ooze (
).
