EvoWorld.io Skills: What Every Creature’s Ability Does

Every creature in FlyOrDie (EvoWorld.io) has one skill. Older guides list invisibility, acid spit or phasing; none of those exist in the current game. The real skill list is in the game's shared.js file, and the descriptions below come from the game's English text file. There are 30 skill entries, and only five kinds are active, which means you trigger them yourself.

Active and passive skills

An active skill fires when you press Space or right-click; the game's own label reads “Active (press right click or space)”. A passive skill works on its own. Some passive skills still have a cooldown, so they cannot trigger again straight away.

The five active skills

Skill	Creatures	What it does	Cooldown
Swoop	Blue Bird, Red Bird, Blackbird, Brown Bird	Glide down for 3 seconds; prey or food you hit takes double damage	8 s
Speed up	Falcon, Eagle, Hawk, Pumpkin	A quick burst of speed	7 s
Fireball	Dragon	Throws a fireball that takes 25% of the victim's max health and sets it on fire	8 s
Flame	Phoenix	Sets prey on fire every time; burning prey loses 5% of max health per second	8 s
Scythe attack	Ghostly Reaper, Pumpkin Ghost, Grim Reaper	A scythe hit for a share of max health: 35%, 30% or 25% depending on the reaper	0.5 s
