==Skill Shop==
Skills are obtained at the [[Skill Shop]], which becomes unlocked upon completing the the [[Adventures#Skill Shop Mini Adventure|Skill Shop Mini Adventure]]. They are bought with [[tokens]]. At first, only three skills can be bought at the Skill Shop; however, as you raise your drinking stat, more skills will become unlocked at the Skill Shop, in groups of three. Each unlocked skill group costs more tokens, but has better special effects in battle. At 500 drinking, all 33 skills at the Skill Shop become unlocked. You can only have up to 999 of each skill at any time.

Skills are obtained at the '''Skill Shop''', which becomes unlocked in the [[City]] upon completing the [[Mini Adventures#Skill Shop Mini Adventure|Skill Shop Mini Adventure]]. They are bought with [[tokens]].

Due to HoboArena's lack of [[tokens]], theres is no Skill Shop on that version. Because of this difference, you simply obtain skills via consuming non-mixed [[drinks]] on HoboArena. All other aspects of the skills are shared between all versions on HoboWars.

Upon buying a skill, it becomes placed in your Skill Repository on the Skills page, which is accessible through the Living Area and the "Skills" side bar link. From there, skills can be "set" into a skill slot. In order for a skill to be fired, it must be placed into a skill slot. Also, as you raise your drinking stat, you will unlock more skill slots, up to nine maximum at 400 drinking. Once a skill is placed into a skill slot, it can be dragged up and down into other skill slot positions, that is, if you have more than one skill slot. The skill in the first skill slot will fire first, the skill in the second skill slot will fire second, and so on; basically, they are used in the order you place them. You cannot set the same skill in multiple skill slots. Once you are done arranging your skills, click the "Set Order" button to save your skill arrangement. Leaving a skill slot blank will not cause a "pause" in between skill firing, so make sure you take advantage of all of your skill slots!

In battle, skills automatically fire at set intervals, which are determined by your BAL. The higher your BAL, the earlier your skills will fire. Usually, skills fire every 20 or so rounds. Once a skill is fired, it becomes used up and disappears, so, make sure your skills are always well-stocked! Also, each skill will only fire once during battle; once all of the skills in your skill slots are fired, you will not fire any more skills for the remaining duration of the battle.

If you are a donator, you can save the current skill lineup you have as a named Skill Set and switch to it when desired. You can have up to five saved Skill Sets at any time. If your donator status goes away, you will not have access to your saved Skill Sets.

Skills are special moves that your hobo uses in battle when drunk.

Skill Shop

Skills are obtained at the Skill Shop, which becomes unlocked in the City upon completing the Skill Shop Mini Adventure. They are bought with tokens. At first, only three skills can be bought at the Skill Shop; however, as you raise your drinking stat, more skills will become unlocked at the Skill Shop, in groups of three. Each unlocked skill group costs more tokens, but has better special effects in battle. At 500 drinking, all 33 skills at the Skill Shop become unlocked. You can only have up to 999 of each skill at any time.

Due to HoboArena's lack of tokens, theres is no Skill Shop on that version. Because of this difference, you simply obtain skills via consuming non-mixed drinks on HoboArena. All other aspects of the skills are shared between all versions on HoboWars.

Mechanics

Upon buying a skill, it becomes placed in your Skill Repository on the Skills page, which is accessible through the Living Area and the "Skills" side bar link. From there, skills can be "set" into a skill slot. In order for a skill to be fired, it must be placed into a skill slot. Also, as you raise your drinking stat, you will unlock more skill slots, up to nine maximum at 400 drinking. Once a skill is placed into a skill slot, it can be dragged up and down into other skill slot positions, that is, if you have more than one skill slot. The skill in the first skill slot will fire first, the skill in the second skill slot will fire second, and so on; basically, they are used in the order you place them. You cannot set the same skill in multiple skill slots. Once you are done arranging your skills, click the "Set Order" button to save your skill arrangement. Leaving a skill slot blank will not cause a "pause" in between skill firing, so make sure you take advantage of all of your skill slots!

In battle, skills automatically fire at set intervals, which are determined by your BAC. The higher your BAC, the earlier your skills will fire. Usually, skills fire every 20 or so rounds. Once a skill is fired, it becomes used up and disappears, so, make sure your skills are always well-stocked! Also, each skill will only fire once during battle; once all of the skills in your skill slots are fired, you will not fire any more skills for the remaining duration of the battle.

The special effects of skills vary from skill to skill; some skills buff your stats, some lower your opponent's stats, some heal you, some damage your opponent, and some do something entirely unique.

If you are a donator, you can save the current skill lineup you have as a named Skill Set and switch to it when desired. You can have up to five saved Skill Sets at any time. If your donator status goes away, you will not have access to your saved Skill Sets.

If you have the Cabana Club Card special item from Bernard's Mansion active, your opponent's skills will miss 25% of the time.

The following is a comprehensive table of certain drinking stat intervals and the skill-related benefits they provide:

Comprehensive Drinking Stat and Skill-Related Benefits Information Table
Drinking Stat Max BAC Skill Fire Interval Skill Slots Number of Unlocked Skills
0 0.20% Around every 23 rounds. 1 3
50 0.22% Around every 23 rounds. 2 6
100 0.24% Around every 23 rounds. 3 9
150 0.26% Around every 22 rounds. 4 12

Advanced Strategies and Information

The following section discusses advanced skill-related strategies and information.

Extended Skill Information

Average

When Average is fired, it averages all of your opponent's stats for 10 rounds, but over those 10 rounds, their stats gradually return to normal.

For example:

Round 20: Hobo A has 800 speed, 100 power, and 100 strength.
Hobo B uses Average!
Round 21: Hobo A has 333 speed, 333 power, and 333 strength.
Round 22: Hobo A has 379 speed, 310 power, and 310 strength.
Round 23: Hobo A has 425 speed, 287 power, and 287 strength.
...
...
...
...
...
Round 29: Hobo B has 754 speed, 123 power, and 123 strength.
Round 30: Hobo B has 800 speed, 100 power, and 100 strength.

BAC-Boosting Skills

Jello Shot and Keg Stand do not stack with each other. If Keg Stand is fired sometime after Jello Shot, the BAC boost from Keg Stand replaces the BAC boost from Jello Shot, and if Jello Shot is fired sometime after Keg Stand, the BAC boost from Jello Shot replaces the BAC boost from Keg Stand.

Buff Rat

The rat stat boosts from Buff Rat stack with the rat stat boosts from the Chocorat status effect and the rat stat boosts from the Rodent Ring.

Charm Rat

When Charm Rat is fired, it has a 20% chance of charming your opponent's rat to turn on its owner and attack him/her, a 20% chance of charming your opponent's rat to distract itself and not attack you, and a 60% chance of not charming your opponent's rat at all.

Concentration

When Concentration is fired, your current net stat buffs gained during are doubled. Concentration doesn't affect your net stat buffs if they are at or below 0%.

A few examples:

Round 20: Hobo A uses Mighty! (Hobo A's stat buffs: + 5% speed, + 5% strength, + 5% power.)
Round 40: Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +10% speed, +10% strength, +10% power.)

Round 20: Hobo A uses Mighty! (Hobo A's stat buffs: + 5% speed, + 5% strength, + 5% power.)
Round 40: Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +10% speed, +10% strength, +10% power.)
Round 60: Hobo B uses Sissify! (Hobo A's stat buffs: + 5% speed, + 5% strength, + 5% power.)

Round 20: Hobo A uses Mighty! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +5% speed, +5% strength, +5% power.)
Round 40: Hobo B uses Sissify! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +0% speed, +0% strength, +0% power.)
Round 60: Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +0% speed, +0% strength, +0% power.)

Round 20: Hobo B uses Peon! (Hobo A's stat reduced: –12% speed, –12% strength, –12% power.)
Round 40: Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A's stat reduced: –12% speed, –12% strength, –12% power.)
Round 60: Hobo A uses Champion! (Hobo A's stat buffs: + 0% speed, + 0% strength, + 0% power.)

Additionally, Concentration affects Leap. However, in order for it to, Leap needs to be active until Concentration is fired, meaning that your opponent has to not attack you during that time, or else Leap will be used, and your active Leap chance won't be doubled when Concentration is fired.

Two examples:

Round 20: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Hobo A uses Leap! (Hobo A has one Leap chance.)
Round 21: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 22: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 23: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 24: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 25: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 26: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 27: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 28: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A has two Leap chances.)
Round 29: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 30: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.
Round 31: Hobo B tries to hit Hobo A, but they leap out of the way!
Round 32: Hobo A attacks Hobo B.

Concentration does not affect Average, Buff Rat, Charm Rat, Cripple, Debuff, Defend, Double Drain, Double Punch, Drain, Heal, Heal More, Jello Shot, Keg Stand, Paralyze, Peon, Quad Punch, Quint Punch, Reduce, Sissify, Slow, Takedown, Tiebreaker, Triple Drain, Triple Punch, Weaken, or Yoink.

Damaging Skills

Double Punch, Triple Punch, Quad Punch, Quint Punch, Drain, Double Drain, Triple Drain are affected by stat-buffing skills and status effects, and can score both drunken and Animal-Style critical hits. However, they are unaffected by the Can Cannon's damage multiplier.

The damage both Takedown and Cripple do is independent from any damage bonuses provided by skills, status effects, equipment, and combat stats. The two skills, if they manage to hit, simply halve your opponent's remaining health.

Double Punch, Triple Punch, Quad Punch, Quint Punch, Drain, Double Drain, Triple Drain, Takedown, and Cripple can all be drunkenly dodged. They can also be dodged with the help of the skill Leap.

Leap

When Leap is fired, you will dodge your opponent's next attack, even if your opponent's next attack is a skill.

The following skills can be dodged: Average, Cripple, Debuff, Double Drain, Double Punch, Drain, Paralyze, Peon, Quad Punch, Quint Punch, Reduce, Sissify, Slow, Takedown, Triple Drain, Triple Punch, Weaken, and Yoink.

In addition to causing your opponent's next attack to miss, Leap also has a 33⅓% chance of causing your opponent to crash into the ground and take damage. The damage your opponent receives from crashing into the ground is the damage you would have received from your opponent's attack if it didn't miss because of Leap.

Paralyze

When Paralyze is fired, it creates a counter of 30 rounds. Every turn of the player who launched the Paralyze skill decreases the counter by 1. Every blocked attack attempt of the paralyzed player decreases the counter by 6. Every blocked skill fire attempt of the paralyzed player decreases the counter by 11. Once the counter reaches 0, the paralyzed player returns to normal.

Blocked skill fire attempts of a paralyzed player are delayed, not skipped.

Stat-Buffing Skills

Stat buffs all stack with each other. (Examples: Sprint, Strengthen, Empower, Mighty, and Champion') They simply get added together, so the order in which they are fired doesn't really matter.

An example:

Round 20: Hobo A uses Mighty! (Hobo A's stat buffs: + 5% speed, + 5% strength, + 5% power.)
Round 40: Hobo A uses Champion! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +17% speed, +17% strength, +17% power.)
Round 60: Hobo A uses Sprint! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +22% speed, +17% strength, +17% power.)
Round 80: Hobo A uses Strengthen! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +22% speed, +22% strength, +17% power.)
Round 100: Hobo A uses Empower! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +22% speed, +22% strength, +22% power.)
Round 120: Hobo A uses Concentration! (Hobo A's stat buffs: +44% speed, +44% strength, +44% power.)

The stat buffs are based on the target's base combat stats. Combat stat bonuses from status effects and equipment are not affected by these.

Stat-Reducing Skills

Stat reductions all stack with each other. (Examples: Slow, Reduce, Weaken, Sissify, and Peon) They simply get added together, so the order in which they are fired doesn't really matter.

An example:

Round 20: Hobo A uses Sissify! (Hobo B's stat reductions: – 5% speed, – 5% strength, – 5% power.)
Round 40: Hobo A uses Peon! (Hobo B's stat reductions: –17% speed, –17% strength, –17% power.)
Round 60: Hobo A uses Slow! (Hobo B's stat reductions: –22% speed, –17% strength, –17% power.)
Round 80: Hobo A uses Reduce! (Hobo B's stat reductions: –22% speed, –22% strength, –17% power.)
Round 100: Hobo A uses Weaken! (Hobo B's stat reductions: –22% speed, –22% strength, –22% power.)

The stat reductions are based on the target's base combat stats. Combat stat bonuses from status effects and equipment are not affected by these skills.

Tiebreaker

If Tiebreaker is fired by both players in a battle, the second player to fire it has a shot at getting the tiebreak if the first player to fire it fails to get it. If the first player to fire it gets the tiebreak, then the second player to fire it can't get it no matter what.

Yoink

When Yoink is fired, it steals your opponent's status effect for the battle and subtracts 10 minutes from that status effect's remaining duration, giving those 10 minutes of that status effect to you after the battle ends.
