Elite Skills.

The best of the best of the plethora of abilities we can equip our characters with.
These skills are sought after by many an adventurer, for they can turn the tide of a battle.
However, unlike regular skills, which you can simply buy from a trainer, elite skills take a much more involved path to obtain.
This guide will show you where to find the skills you're looking for.

How to obtain elite skills:

Signet of Capture - This skill is essential to getting an elite skill. Whenever you kill a boss monster, you must stand near his body and use Signet of Capture. You may then select any of the skills that boss possessed. Select the golden skill (if there is one), press the Capture button, and your Signet of Capture is replaced with the newly captured elite skill. This process is commonly knon as "capping."
(For Tyrian Characters: Magi Malaquire in Lion's Arch gives two free Signets of Capture for completing his quests.)

Unlocking - The other way to get an elite skill is to unlcok it with faction from a Priest of Balthazar. This costs 3,000 faction per skill, and unlocks it for use with any PvP-only character you make. (Capping a skill also unlocks it.)
