ELHEXA CodexSkills
Skills are the core of every adventurer’s power in ELHEXA. Whether learned at institutions, inherited from another world, or granted by the Archons themselves, skills determine how your party fights, heals, and supports one another in battle.
Every adventurer arrives with a random set of skills when summoned from the gacha. Higher-rarity cards tend to come with more skills and at higher star levels. Outlanders always carry their own unique signature skill that cannot be learned anywhere else.
Level Up a Skill
Every skill can be leveled from 1 to 10. Open an adventurer’s card, tap any skill to see its details, then press Level Up. Leveling costs Skill Crystals (shards) and Gold. Each skill category has its own matching crystal type.

Leveling Costs
Gold cost per shard depends on the skill’s star rating. Total gold = shards × base gold price per shard.

Skill Crystals are primarily obtained by transmuting unwanted adventurers or as quest rewards.
Learn New Skills
Five institutions across the central city offer Study quests where adventurers can learn new skills. Each study quest costs Skill Shards, Gold, and takes time to complete.
An adventurer’s strength depends heavily on what skills they know. There is no limit to how many skills a card can learn — invest in the right combination and even a modest card becomes a powerhouse.
