Tags

Tags encompass the vast range of non-spell abilities in Unwritten Legends, providing your character with new capabilities or augmenting existing abilities. Profession-specific tags often come in sets, with one tag allowing your character to learn all of the tags in that tag tree. Using the abilities command and the abilities info command will give you information about what your tags are doing for you as well as how to use tags and any class abilities your character has. Typing tags will show you all of your tags, and typing tags full will show you all tags available in the game.

Mechanist Scientists and Mercenaries start with 1 ability set each. An additional ability set is available at level 15. Mercenaries choose from Berserker, Grit, Finesse, or Dirty, and cap at 2 sets. Scientist Mechanists choose from Physics, Chemistry, or Invention, and cap at 3.
