Saint Seiya EX Skills Guide – All Skill Meanings and How it Works

Each Saint in Saint Seiya EX has skills, but it can become confusing and overwhelming to remember what each one does. In this Saint Seiya EX Skills guide, I explain how this system works, so you can understand the characters better.

Saint Seiya EX Skills Guide

In Saint Seiya EX, each Saint has 6 skills altogether. As the Saint’s Star Level increases, you can unlock these or upgrade them to make them better and stronger.

Skill Meanings

There are a variety of skills available. I’ll go through each one below and explain what they mean.

Posion

As the name implies, this deals poison damage to enemies. It deals continuous M-DMDG damage over time.

Burn

Similar to poison, but instead, it will burn the enemy over time.

Silence

While in this state, the character cannot use Loop, Cooldown, or Ultimate Skills. However, they can use basic attacks, skills, and passive abilities.

Disappear

During this state, the Saint will leave the battlefield and cannot be targeted by any skills.

Bind

The character will be unable to move voluntarily

Freeze

Freeze! When a character is in a frozen state, they cannot act.

Stiffen

This skill interrupts the target’s current action. But if they are in Stability status, it won’t take effect.

Petrify

The character will be unable to act.

Knock Down

If an enemy is in this state, they cannot move or use any of their skills. Putting a target in this state is perfect, as you’ll be able to get multiple attacks in.

Knock Up

This makes the target float, which will interrupt their current skill. However, if the enemy is in a Stability state, it won’t take effect.

Stun

The character cannot act or do anything.

Dimensional Banish

Get banished! This will remove the target from the battlefield. Also, they will be unable to use any skills and cannot be targeted by any skills.
