Profession mechanic

Active profession mechanics skills such as bursts or stealing are activated with F1—F7 keys and the status of these skills as well as other profession mechanics are displayed by the mechanic bar which is positioned above the characters weapon skills in their skill bar. Every profession has a primary mechanic, which may be include one or more mechanics working together; for example, the necromancer uses their accumulated life force resource to enter Death Shroud. Generally speaking, profession mechanic of a profession refers to the skills activated through the function keys, but any mechanic exclusive to a profession can also be called a profession mechanic.

Primary and secondary mechanics often have traits tied to them. Adept minor traits for elite specializations change how a profession mechanic works, or replace it entirely.
