We are going to take a look at all the skills in Blade Idle, and give you a complete guide on each and every one of them as well as which ones you should pick for dungeons and farming.

Firstly, let's cover the basics of Blade Idle skills. You will have a total of 12 active skills in the game. As you increase your level and advance in the game, you will also gain access to better skills. What is important to note however is that these skills that you unlock later in the game have a longer cooldown, which makes it impossible to spam them or rotate them quickly for farming.

The skills you unlock first, the lower-tier skills, are the ones that you will most likely use for stage clearing and farming because of the easy rotation.

What are the best skills in Blade Idle?

If we were to talk from a general statistical point of view, the absolute best skill is Piercing Blade. That is the skill that you will unlock last, but it also has a much longer cooldown than the rest. Naming just one skill as "best" would not really be fair, since these skills are used together in a rotation for the best result. We have listed them all below based on what type of content you want to clear, so if you want to know exactly what skills you should use for each instance in the game, keep on reading!

How to upgrade skills in Blade Idle

In order to upgrade your skills, you will need to farm. It's as simple as that - all you need to do is keep farming specific levels and use the skill books to upgrade your skills until they have reached the maximum upgrade potential. 

It will be a lot easier to upgrade the beginner skills because these are the most common, and getting a powerful red skill such as Piercing Blade will take considerably longer to max out. We recommend that you also use all the selective skill books you get from the events for these rarer skills.
