You are reading the Movement Utility Skills guide. In Eternal Fantasy Online, there are four categories of skills: Weapon, Magic, Utility, and Profession. Mix and match these skills to customize your play style.
Unlike the other skill types that use Resource, Utility skills use Stamina. Movement skills provide maneuverability to dodge, improve positioning in combat, or overcome obstacles in your path.
Players may have a total of six skills available at any one time. It is customary to assign four slots to Weapon or Magic skills and two slots to Utility skills. With that said, there are no rules that govern skill assignment.
Each Utility skill has three different possible effects: standard, variant one, and variant two. Such options provide flexibility in how a skill is used in the moment.
Blueprint mods can further adjust the effect—or replace the effect—of a skill or a skill’s variant. Such changes are beyond the scope of this guide. Please refer to the Skill Blueprints guide for more information.
A summary of available Movement Utility skills is provided below. In case you want the full details of each skill, continue reading after the summary.

Oh... yay
Utility skills are “so” cool
I can give up the ability to launch literal fireballs from my hands to... roll
I wouldn’t discount movement skills.
What’s the benefit of wasting a skill on roll?
I can already roll
And I don’t need a skill for running, either
When’s the last time you ran? Or rolled? Or did a handspring?
Alright, fine
I admit that I can’t do a handspring
But why would that even be helpful?
That’s all I’m saying
Utility skills are not balanced well against what weapon and magic skills offer
If I’m going to use a skill slot on a Utility skill, give me something cool!
Like what?
I want to fly!
Or run on water
That would be broken. Besides, there are items that grant those abilities.
Really?
Unless they get removed.
Of course they’d get removed!
Anything remotely cool gets removed!
