Ability Books are special consumable items that drop primarily from dungeons and elite challenges, with some exceptions. By consuming them, or ‘learning’ an ability, the user is capable to use that ability permanently in any ability rotation they create, regardless of their equipped loadout.

There are currently 23 abilities that can be learned from ability books, including abilities for all three combat styles, defensive abilities and team support abilities.

Fire a barrage of explosive projectiles into the midst of your enemies, allowing you to deal an extreme amount of damage to multiple targets. RFI
Bandage Friendly Bandage Friendly
Defense
Bandage the lowest HP member of your party to heal them for 300 health over 15 seconds. RFI

Defense
Wait, where did you go? Makes you harder to hit but does not inherently decrease your threat generation. RFI

Icy Shell Icy Shell
Defense
Temporarily encase yourself in a shell of magical ice, increasing protection, resistance, and defensive ice affinity at the cost of agility. Melts very quickly! RFI
Invisibility Invisibility
Defense
Actually, you're probably closer to just a little translucent, but if you claim to be invisible to sound cooler, that's okay too. RFI
