Abilities

From Anarchy Online Wiki [AOWiki]

Abilities have a small but significant effect on everything in the game. This can be directly, as with the handful of Tradeskill processes with Agility as a requirement, but normally by adding to Skills; between the two to four Abilities that are the Skill Dependency, the total rate is 25%. I.e., four points of Abilities gives one point of Skills. This is a much better rate than Tutoring, which is 5%, but obviously much lower than putting points into the abilities themselves. The costs differ, of course, depending on Breed.

Where Abilities make the difference between surviving and thriving, though, is meeting the requirements for equipping Armor and Implanting.
