En Elden Ring, las Habilidades son movimientos especiales de Armas y Escudos que permiten a los jugadores ejecutar ataques únicos con la pieza de equipamiento que tengan equipada en ese momento. Las Habilidades son distintas según la pieza y en la mayoría de los casos se pueden modificar utilizando las Cenizas de guerra. No es necesario imbuir la afinidad de la Ceniza de guerra para aplicar la Habilidad. También te toparás con Armas que poseen Habilidades por defecto sin necesidad de aplicarles Cenizas de guerra.
Las habilidades de arma
Una característica importante del juego es la posibilidad de aplicar Habilidades a las armas, y que se obtienen de las distintas zonas de las Tierras Intermedias. Las Habilidades son un elemento de progresión del combate y el personaje, que ya existían en otros "Souls" y que hacen su reaparición en Elden Ring. Sin embargo, en Elden Ring, From Software ha preferido centrarse en la libertad que estas proporcionan al jugador.
En otros juegos de la saga "Souls", existían armas que podían ejecutar ciertas Habilidades, pero ahora, en Elden Ring, eres tú quien puede elegir libremente cuáles de ellas usar de una amplia variedad, y aplicarlas a las diferentes armas. El propio Miyazaki ha mencionado que hay cerca de 100 Habilidades en total, así que no dudes en experimentar con ellas y crear Builds que se adapten a tu personaje y tu estilo de juego.
¿Cómo se aprenden las habilidades?
Las Habilidades vienen dadas por defecto en Armas y Escudos, pero las puedes modificar con las Cenizas de guerra. Para ello, ve hasta un Lugar de Gracia, entrar en el menú correspondiente "Cenizas de guerra" y seleccionar una ranura del Arma o Escudo en la que aprender una Habilidad distinta. Ten en cuenta que algunas Armas tienen Habilidades únicas que no se pueden reemplazar.
Durante una entrevista a Hidetaka Miyazaki, comentó que es buena idea explorar a conciencia cada Zona de las Tierras Intermedias, ya que uno de los motivos de que Elden Ring se desarrolle en un mundo abierto a gran escala es que se pueda encontrar dichas Habilidades ocultas. Y no solo encontrarás Habilidades, sino también Armas y Magias.
From Software ha querido colocar todos estos elementos de manera que los jugadores disfruten a la hora de explorar y descubrir estos elementos. Además de la exploración, algunas Habilidades se pueden adquirir de las distintas tiendas y Mercaderes, o bien, aprenderlas de ciertos PNJs. Por lo general, sin embargo, se encuentran escondidas por todo el mundo esperando a que los jugadores las descubran.
He equipado una habilidad que no me gusta ¿Puedo volver a la anterior?
Si, puedes deshacerte de una habilidad que no te guste en cualquier Lugar de Gracia o hablando con Maestro Herrero Hewg si te encuentras en La Mesa Redonda.
Habilidades en Elden Ring
No cualquier clase de equipamiento te permite intercambiar su habilidad. Armas únicas, tales como la Espada de Cristal no pueden ser equipadas con Cenizas de Guerra ni tampoco pueden cambiar su Habilidad, la misma regla se aplica a todos los Sellos Sagrados.
