I have almost all the special skills information up, except for a few things which are in the "Information Needed" section. Version 1.1 (7/16/02) - A small update, just some (now) common sense stuff. Another update should be coming in the next day or so. Also, check out the "Information Needed" section. ===II. Copyright Information=== This FAQ is copyright 2002 by Grig (Jason Gregas).

The MYSTIC skill lets you have access to certain ploys in battle. Some of these can only be accessed with certain other skills. For example, you need MYSTIC and CHART to enable the "Lightning" ploy in battle If anybody can supply me with a full list of MYSTIC exclusive ploys, drop me an e-mail. Characters who have the MYSTIC skill: Lu Xun Mi Heng Pang Tong Zhang Bao Zhang Jiao Zhou Yu Zhuge Liang Zuo Ci ===V. The BLESS Skill=== What is the BLESS skill? The BLESS skill allows you to summon various gods to use in battle. First, you have to get the BLESS skill, which is granted to you by the Northern and Southern Mystics once you are on the Top 10 Fame List. It may not occur the first time, so don't be shocked if it doesn't. After that, you have to go hunting using the -Visit- command with someone. You have to then meet a tiger, and then after you beat it, you MAY get a god. SUMMONS: Kirin: Roc: Phoenix: ???: I know there is another one, but I personally haven't got it yet. If anybody has any info, send it in. Next update I'll have what they do.. hopefully. ===VI. The ZEAL Skill=== What is the ZEAL skill? The ZEAL skill enables you to recover more AP per month. Basically, it enables you to do more because of the extra AP. An excellent skill. Characters who have the ZEAL skill: Cai Yong Cao Cao Deng Ai Dong He Dong Yun Fei Yi Gongsun Du Gongsun Yue Guan Ping Guo Huai Guo Tu Han Sui Hua He Huang Huo Jiang Wan Li Yan Mao Jie Shi Xie Sun Quan Tao Qian Wang Fu Wang Yun Wu Qiujian Xu Miao Yang Hu Yuan Shang Yuan Yin Zheng Xuan Zhong Yao ===VII. The STUDY Skill=== What is the STUDY skill? The STUDY skill allows you to gain more experience when using the - Train- and -Tutor- commands. It's quite useful in my opinion. Characters who have the STUDY skill: Bu Zhi Cao Ren Guan Yi Guo Youzhi Han Song Huang Gai Jiang Qin Jiang Wei Kan Ze Lu Meng Shi Yi Shisun Rui Sun Liang Sun Xiu Sun Yu Wang Chang Wang Ping Xiahou Dun Yuan Yi Zhang Fei Zhang He Zhong Hui Zhu Ju ===VIII. The DOCTOR Skill=== What is the DOCTOR skill? The DOCTOR skill allows you to heal injured troops in battle. EXTREMELY useful, as it basically could put a unit back in the fight. Great for using on strong, frontline units. Characters who have the DOCTOR skill: Hua Tuo Yu Fan Yu Ji Zhang Jiao ===IX. The ORACLE Skill=== What is the ORACLE skill? The ORACLE skill, when used in battle, gives off a random effect. It can change the weather and wind direction, it can shorten life spans, it can make units flee, it can lower morale, and I'm sure more than that. Can be good or bad. Use at your own risk. Outside of battle, when you visit somebody with the ORACLE skill, they will sometimes tell you about people who are near death. Characters who have the ORACLE skill: Guan Luo Lu Kai Yu Fan Yu Ji Zhang Bao Zhang Jiao ===X. The CRITIC Skill=== What is the CRITIC skill? The CRITIC skill is used when you visit people. If you visit someone who has the CRITIC skill, they might critique you. If it's a good review, you gain FAME. If it's a bad review, you lose it. Characters who have the CRITIC skill: Cai Yong Chen Qun Chen Shou Cui Yan Fu Xun Jiang Ji Kong Zhou Sima Hui Sima Lang Wang Can Xiahou Xuan Xu Jing Xu Shao ===XI. The WEALTH Skill=== What is the WEALTH skill? The WEALTH skill is used when you visit people. If you visit someone with the WEALTH skill, they'll randomly give you money, no questions asked. Quite good. Characters with the WEALTH skill: Lu Su Mi Fang Mi Zhu Wang Kuang ===XII. Information Still Needed=== Alright. I'm not sure what information I still need. You see, I have about 100 e-mails in my inbox relating to this FAQ. Now, the answers are probably in the e-mails somewhere, since I haven't looked at most of them yet. I'll take a lot at them sometime tonight or tomorrow, and then update the FAQ with the info that I'm sure some of you sent in. Also, for the credits, I'll try to get you all down, so for now, I just have an approximate total of the people who e-mailed me. Don't despair, I'll try my best to give credit to everyone. ===XIII.
