Arthur seemed to be looking at the middle aged man, but in reality, he was gazing at the information window in front of him.
>Dragon's Insight has been successfully activated!
Info: The user thrusts his spear at the foe several times in rapid succession. The number of thrusts depends on the player's agility and dexterity.
Restriction: Spear users
Cooldown: 30 seconds
Cost: 5% Mana with every use.
It was one of the basic skills that every spear user had and was very useful.
If Skewer was a slow, high-damage skill, Rapid Thrust was a fast, low-damage skill. Both had their uses and it was up to the player to know when to activate them to their benefit.
The next skill that Arthur found was a wide area skill.
Info: The user swings his spear in an arc, damaging all foes that are in the spear's range. The skill's range increases with the user's proficiency.
Restriction: Spear users
Cooldown: 30 seconds
Cost: 5% Mana with every use.
It was another standard skill that one absolutely needed to have. The spear offered better range and this skill could further increase it. Of course, Arthur could do a similar action without using the skill, but it didn't use mana.
The use of mana in this case allowed the spear's power and range to be increased.
The third skill that Arthur got was a passive skill.
Info: Improves the user's proficiency with spears.
Restriction: Spear users
Cooldown: None
Cost: none
The skill had very little information on its own, but it was absolutely necessary for any spear user.
It intrigued Arthur, as it was one of the many weapon skills of a similar type.
Just like Spear Arts, there were also Sword Arts, Axe Arts, Shield Arts, and more. Each of these skills was passive and improved the proficiency with the respective weapon type.
'The skill that allows one to adapt to a weapon…' Arthur remembered just how the effect of this passive was.
It was one of the most memorable experiences in the game.
Once one obtained this skill, they would feel as if they had been using spears for a long time. It could turn an absolute amateur into a veteran with a spear.
Passive skills of these types were crucial to the players, as most of them would obviously not know how to use weapons. This filled the gap that they had and made them comparable to experienced users.
Of course, it wouldn't turn one into a master right away. It would simply give them a natural familiarity with the weapon.
Even if Arthur had his past life experiences and memories, he still didn't have much idea about spears.
'I had started off as an Archer before I upgraded into a Ranger, thus I didn't really use spears much. Swords were still fine since I could use them as a spare from time to time.' Arthur remembered.
His instincts, which were honed in his past life would now be better applied through this passive skill.
With three skills picked out, Arthur now looked for other skills that might be uncommon or rare.
And while he was looking through them, he found something unexpected.
"Wait a second… There's actually a skill like this?" Arthur was truly surprised.
