Gameplay/Loadout System

Every character in God of Stackers brings a loadout into battle: three equippable abilities plus the character's own Ultimate.

Loadout slots

Slot	Default key	Contents
Ability 1	1	Any ability you own
Ability 2	2	Any ability you own
Ability 3	3	Any ability you own
Ultimate	4	Fixed for each character (see Character System)

• Loadouts are saved per character, so each character can have a different setup.
• Loadouts are edited from the Loadout tab of the character menu. Choosing an ability that is already in another slot swaps the two.
• New accounts start with Slice (B), Fire (B) and Rain (B) equipped.
• New abilities are obtained through Recruitment.

Using abilities

Each ability has a cooldown and may need a minimum phase before it can be used (see Phases). Ultimates unlock at Phase 3.

Abilities come in rarities S, A, B and C. Higher-rarity versions of the same ability are stronger but often have longer cooldowns.
