Using Fabled

Fabled, formerly known as ProSkillAPI, or SkillAPI, is a powerful skill creation and management plugin. You can create custom skills inside Fabled and use them inside MythicLib.

Custom Skill Registration

Similarly to MythicMobs, you can register custom skills into MythicLib using the Fabled skill editor. The process is the exact same as in this tutorial apart from the format of the MythicLib skill configuration file.

First, code your skill using the Fabled skill editor. Let's assume the skill you coded has ID Firebolt. Open up a YML config file within the MythicLib/skill folder and paste the following:

FIREBOLT:
        fabled-skill-id: <Fabled_skill_identifier>
        # modifiers: [] # Not supported (see below)

As of MythicLib 1.6.2 snapshots, SkillAPI and ProSkillAPI are no longer maintained ; users are asked to use Fabled instead. Note that for backwards compatibility, skillapi-skill-id can still be used instead of fabled-skill-id.

Skill Modifiers

There is currently no way to retrieve skill modifiers when using Fabled skills, unlike when using MythicMobs. However all skills registered using Fabled have a level skill modifier which hooks directly into Fabled skill level system. Basically you can setup skill mechanic numerical parameters to linearly scale on the skill level. Using MythicMobs you'd have been able to setup any type of scaling you want (not limited to linear scaling).

Just like cooldown mana and stamina, the level modifier is already registered so it's useless to have it in the modifiers list in the config sample above.

Due to this specific Fabled limitation, we recommend the use of MythicMobs instead of Fabled for custom skill creation, although it is still an option. You will see why this is such a limitation when working on complex skills that require non-linear profiles for its numerical parameters.
