There are talents for every play type, whether you’re searching for combat, parkour, or balanced build. There are abilities that allow you to sneak up on your opponents and attack them from behind or above. It’s possible to transform into a parkour god with only a few easy tricks. While the more complex talents in Dying Light 2 need more Inhibitor enhancements.
Combat Skills
This portion of the skill tree is a little more complicated than the others. What sort of battle style you choose depends on the talents you select. However, we’ve selected a rundown of necessary basic early skills that will let you use a large array of fighting mechanics.

| Skill | Description |
| Power Attack | Allows you to unleash a more powerful strike. |
| Perfect Parry | This gives you the ability to block your opponent and potentially land a dropkick. |
| Air Kick | Kick your foes with a powerful kick from above. |
| Block Charge | Take an opponent down whilst blocking their strike. |
| Ground Pound | Causes shock to a group of enemies by hitting the ground from above. |
Parkour Skills
Dying Light 2’s biggest feature is its parkour, which is perhaps the best element of the game. Your parkour ability is mostly determined by the early-game basic talents that you gain.
| Skill | Description |
| Tic Tac | Allows you to sprint up and down vertical walls. |
| Active Landing | Allows you to land from a great height while maintaining your forward velocity. |
| Far Jump | Gives you an extra boost when jumping off a ledge. |
| Dart | Stamina is consumed as a trade-off for increased movement speed. While parkouring, this helps in reaching higher ledges and objects. |
| Firm Grip | Allows you to hang on to the last ledge of a wall even if you’ve run out of energy and keeps you from plummeting. |

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
