Passive is a skill that is always on effect after obtaining it. It will be on effect without any mana cost as long as the conditions are met.
Active is a skill that requires some mana to activate it. It usually does not have a very strong damage so the mana cost and the cooldown is very low. Mana cost ranges from 5~50 and cooldown ranges from 1~10.
Buff is a skill that gives you and your allies a special effect or a power boost for a limited time when activated. It's activation can be easily interrupted, so it has a very short cooldown. However, the buff usually gives a huge advantage to a side, so the mana cost is relatively high. Mana cost ranges from 50~80, cooldown ranges from 10~30 and buff duration ranges from 5~30.
Special Active is a skill that has a special skill image when activated. The damage is relatively powerful, so it has a very high mana cost. Also, most Special Actives cannot be used as a combo, but there are some that can. If a Special Active is interrupted, its mana will not be refunded and its cooldown will start, but its interruption chance is very low. Mana cost ranges from 50~300 and cooldown ranges from 5~30
Sealed Skills are a type of skills that require completing a quest to be unlocked. After completing the quest, the NPC gives you a skill unlocking book that can unlock a certain type of Sealed Skill. Due to this down side, they usually are stronger than most skills. Sealed Skills, when unlocked, becomes a Passive, Active or a Special Active.
Hyper Active is the strongest skill in the game. They require being a level 65 or higher to unlock, and is a Sealed Skill. To unlock the Hyper Active, you need to complete a quest and obtain 'The Ultimate Skill Book'. The Hyper Actives may decrease an enemy player's life to half or even cause a One-Hit Kill when landed successfully. However, they deplete the user's mana completely(Maximum mana for a player is 300 and Hyper Active requires 300 mana) and always has a 180 second cooldown, even if you have a cooldown reducing buff or a mana cost reducing buff. The only character that has an exception of the mana depleting rule is Aisha, who has a Maximum Mana Increasing Passive Skill.
