Touch skills are skill types that require the user to be slightly closer than adjacent to target to be activated. If the character is not in touch range when a touch skill is used, the character will try to move to the target to use the skill.

Game mechanics[edit]

Range
  • Touch skills have slightly less range than adjacent... 86.746987951% to be exact.
Attribute mechanic
PvP Counterplay

These are the primary ways to reduce the chance of being affected by touch skills:

PvE Counterplay
  • Touch skills that are not spells or attacks will bypass targeting prevention and certain "unkillable" foes defenses (i.e. Kanaxai).
Anomaly Anomaly.Contrary to what the concise description suggests, Spear Swipe is not a melee attack, but a spear attack with touch range. Skills such as Strength of Honor will not trigger.
