Best skills in Ember Knights

Not all skills in Ember Knights are created equally. Luckily, a lot of the best ones are given to you early. This heavily depends on your combat style, so we've separated them between Bow and Sword. You can only have two skills at a time, but we've shown three that work really well that you can switch out when needed.

Best Skills to choose in Ember Knights based on your weapon

Sword players rely on being able to get in, cut a bunch, and jump out when needed. They are tanks and can do a lot of damage very quickly. These players need skills that complement that fighting style.

The best Sword skills

• Knight's Charge
  • Combined with an attack immediately after ends fights quickly. If you're experienced enough, you can chain kill enemies with this since it has two charges.
• Frost Wall
  • This freezes enemies in front of you. It's best to have enemies stuck so you can deal a lot of damage at once. Several times we've been saved by having enemies frozen.
• Chakram
  • This comes in handy for running away and attacking. The skill bounces off of the player and onto the enemies up to three times. This is perfect for a player who needs to be close to enemies. This skill has two charges, so you can use it a lot.

A bow fighter is a long-range fighter. This player relies on speed and striking further away to get more hits in without losing health. Their abilities must complement this strategy.

The best Bow skills

• Blast Bomb
  • This is the ultimate trap because it does not explode until an enemy is close or a few seconds have passed. Throw this bomb at enemies to deal a massive blow to their health.
• Arcane Bolts
  • This has three charges, which makes it a great choice anyway. When this skill is used, it sends magic balls at enemies who are far away, damaging them. It can also adjust in-flight to target enemies that attempt to dodge.
• Cyclone
  • When you find yourself in a tight spot, this is a lifesaver. It pushes enemies away and stuns them, giving you enough time to slip away and get to a favorable position.
