About Shell and Seal Abilities in Mortal Shell 2

Abilities in Mortal Shell 2 are unique to each shell, granting them mechanics, combat abilities, and other effects that cannot be obtained anywhere else. Abilities consume a resource called Resolve, which acts like their ammo. This ammo is generated by attacking enemies with the primary weapon, creating a combat loop where you fire off the sidearm, spending Resolve, then continue attacking enemies with the primary weapon to generate Resolve.

Aside from attacking enemies to generate Resolve, this resource can also be picked up by interacting with Resolve effigies or totems that can be found throughout the map. These are glowing totems that glow brightly, indicating loot. The totems can be destroyed by attacking them multiple times, and then the Harbinger can absorb this resource. The Resolve bar is located on the bottom right of the screen, indicated by a yellow meter.
