Revision 3

Overview

Aerial Roll is a Health Skill Tree ability exclusive to Kliff. While in Flight, you instantly consume Stamina for a high-speed dash. This allows rapid bursts of directional movement while airborne, providing a mid-flight dodge for avoiding projectiles and repositioning during aerial combat.

Skill Details

How to Unlock

Aerial Roll can be unlocked in two ways:

Method 1: Boss Observation

Observe the Crowcaller boss during Chapter 5's main quest "Guest Unbidden." The Crowcaller uses Aerial Roll during both of its boss encounters in this chapter. Watch for the boss performing a high-speed aerial dash, and Kliff will learn the skill automatically. When learning occurs, the screen darkens and a "Learning in Progress..." notification appears.

Method 2: Skill Tree Investment

First learn Flight Lv.1, then spend 1 Abyss Artifact to unlock Aerial Roll from the Health Skill Tree.

Combat Tips

Use Aerial Roll as a mid-flight dodge to avoid incoming projectiles or enemy attacks. The burst of speed instantly changes your position, making it invaluable against bosses with ranged attacks or aerial sweeps.

At 80 Stamina per use, it is cheaper than Swift Flight's sustained drain for short repositioning. Use it for quick bursts rather than sustained travel.

Maximize your Stamina stat early (through the Health or Stamina skill tree) to support multiple consecutive Aerial Rolls. Running out of Stamina mid-flight drops you out of the air, which can be dangerous during boss encounters.

The Crowcaller fight in Chapter 5 is an excellent place to practice Aerial Roll timing, since the boss frequently uses aerial dive attacks that are best dodged with a well-timed roll.
