"Pve skill" and "List of pve skills" redirects here. For skills that have a PvP version, see List of PvE versions of skills. For temporary skills available in PvE, see List of temporary skills.
PvE-only skills are only accessible to roleplaying characters and only usable in PvE areas. PvE-only skills can be learned by a roleplaying character, but cannot be unlocked for the account. A character can only equip three PvE-only skills at a time.
Some titles provide passive PvE-only effects when selected in the hero panel. See Title (skill type) for a list of those effects.
Some special skills are available while playing in PvE areas. Although only available in PvE, those are not considered PvE skills by game mechanics.
PvE-only skills cannot be learned with tomes.

Anniversary skills[edit]
The Anniversary Celebration added 10 new Elite Skills to the game, one for each profession. They can only be captured from bosses that spawn in certain areas when at least one party member has a Proof of Triumph.
It is notable that these Anniversary Elite Skills are considered PvE-only, which prevents player characters from learning them by using Elite Skill Tomes.
