| Tactical Positioning | Great Power | 4 SP | 3 | After using a “Whirlwind” or “Massacre”, gain 1 tile of movement and your next single-target attack deals 30% more damage if it hits a different target than those hit by the original skill. |
| Whirlwind | Great Power | 4 SP | 3 | 1 Range; Spin in a devastating circle, striking all surrounding enemies multiple times. Each hit has a chance to cause bleeding and reduce a target's speed. Levels increase damage, hits, and bleed chance. |

| Breach Defense | None | 3 SP | None | 1 Range; a brutal, unblockable strike that strips away a target's defenses, clearing their damage resistance and leaving them exposed. This attack is unblockable |
