Abilities in Death's Gambit refers to special actions that the player character may perform. These actions are available depending on the Weapon equipped, and consume Soul Energy. Use these abilities to aid in combat with enemies. This could range from extra defense, attacks, speed and can affect various stats when used. They are used strategically due to the soul energy they consume. In order to gain access these abilities, they must first be obtained and learned. Abilities are obtained by either learning them from Sorun's talent tree, obtained from NPCs, or found in various areas. Below are the listed abilities available in Death's Gambit and in the newly released Afterlife expansion.

Dagger abilities need some love. Not only they don't do what they are supposed to (i.e. Triple damage on dagger roll-attack with Assassinate or extra damage on bleeding targets with Frost Bite), but also Blink is the only ability that applies bleed with a condition while all the other bleed abilities do it on hit. AND you can only apply it on a single target as opposed to the other bleed abilities. Also, no poisoning abilities ? Why ?

Reap is pretty freaking good, it does a moderate amount of damage, only has a CD of 5 sec and if you hit an enemy with reap before it's buff of 8 sec runs out, you get another stacked 20% damage buff and the timer on the buff restarts!

Half of the spear abilities mentioned are actually halberd abilities. There are only two spear abilities which are ‘spear rush’ and ‘serpents barrage’
