Weapon Type

The Ability Meter is a core combat resource in 33 Immortals that powers each weapon’s Special Ability. Every weapon has its own unique meter, named and themed according to the weapon’s identity — such as Justice, Greed, Hope, or Sloth. Managing the Ability Meter is essential for unleashing powerful special moves and gaining the upper hand in battle.

Overview

Each Weapon comes with an associated Ability Meter that fills through specific in-combat actions. The energy stored in the meter is consumed when using the weapon’s Special Ability, often triggering powerful effects like area slows, high damage bursts, or defensive shields.

Characteristics

• The meter is unique per weapon and cannot be transferred or shared
• Some meters regenerate passively, while others require attacks to fill
• Maximum meter size may be affected by Relics, Perks, or Weapon Mastery
• Using a Special Ability usually consumes either a fixed amount or the full meter

Summary

The Ability Meter is the fuel behind every Special Ability in *33 Immortals*. Whether you're hoarding Greed for a devastating Takedown or slowly filling Sloth to freeze your enemies in time, meter management is the key to mastery. Use it wisely, and divine power will be yours to command.
