Several skills are only available via Hobopolis drops:

  • Each type of elemental hobo can drop two books that grant powerful but costly combat skills.
    • One costs 30 MP and deals some elemental damage. It also can be used to calm flipped out enemies.
    • The other costs 120 MP and does the same elemental damage as Saucegeyser, with the added benefit of generating multiple attacks when cast multiple times during a battle.
  • Elemental zone minibosses sometimes drop Accordion Thief songs that are restricted to 10 casts per day, can only be cast on players at least level 15, and can only be cast by Accordion Thieves.
  • Hodgman occasionally drops one of four journals, each granting a passive skill.

Like skills available from your guild, these skills may be made permanent through ascension.
