Several skills are only available via Hobopolis drops:

  • Each type of elemental hobo can drop two books that grant fairly powerful combat skills, one costing 30 MP and the other costing 120 MP.
  • Elemental zone minibosses sometimes drop Accordion Thief songs that are restricted to 200 turns 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.

These skills must be made permanent through ascension - they are not made permanent automatically (as with the Manual of Transcendent Olfaction and Rainbow's Gravity, for example).
