I haven't played for a couple months but if I remember correctly, I think all of his fights thus far have been the famous "Last minute, pull new ability out of my ass" spell. Don't get me wrong, there's a couple things he's mastered such as: Walking. Running. Breathing.I'm curious, it has been a while since I've posted here, but am wondering if the MC ever masters any of his abilities?
However the game really isn't focused on combat and the UI is kinda wonky so it's not surprising that the abilities only appear when necessary to the plot.
