In God Eater 3, certain Abandoned Arc Skills only appear on Arcs of the corresponding part type. For example, an Abandoned Arc Skill that affects Melee damage will only appear on Melee-type Arcs and an Abandoned Arc Skill that affects Gun abilities will only appear on Gun-type Arcs. There are also Skills that can appear on all Arcs, which in essence makes 4 overarching categories of Abandoned Arc Skills: Melee Only skills, Gun Only skills, Shield Only skills & then Universal Skills.
*Take note that a Melee-type Skill can be plugged into all any Melee type God Arc and the same goes for Shields and Guns.
The maximum level for a single Abandoned God Arc Skill is Level 5, but you may place the same Level 5 Skill into two Slots to make the effect Level 10. Most God Arc Skills increase at a given % per level, but certain Skills only activate at Level 5.
Skills that only activate at Level 5 don’t work if they are not Level 5 and you cannot put two of the same skill into two slots to increase its effect. It either works or it doesn’t.

RECOMMENDED INSTALL SKILLS
Recommended Skills are indicated by a in the tables above. If you are trying to optimize your damage or defense, build strong gear that either have Ashwrought Burst Plugins or ◯◯ Elemental weapons and then alternate them for each Aragami weakness.
When you are building gear, it also helps to put the Skills that you value the most on the gear that you are least likely to change. If you love that one Buckler shield and want to use it in all your loadouts, put the skills that are the most essential to you on it.
Noteworthy Melee Weapon Skills:
- Double Edge Weapon: Solid raw attack increase at the cost of defense
- Follow-up: This is really strong.
- All Out Attack: Good when used in conjunction with Athlete. Maybe not a good idea on Stamina hungry weapons
- Reversal: There are many high difficulty missions where you are stuck at 3 Endurance and this skill is extremely useful in those missions
- 11th Hour: Increase damage under 25 ST (Situational)
- Vanquisher: Increase damage in combat with multiple Aragami (Situational)
- Tricky: Increase Special Action damage
- Slasher/Crusher/Piercer: Increase typed damage (Only use increases that affect your weapon’s type of damage)
- Hold: Better on weapons that hit multiple times or Short Blades
Noteworthy Gun Skills:
- Gun Pro: Reduces OP cost of bullets
- Reinforce: OP heal reduction cost, if you are the healer of your team
- Healing Sword/Shield: Allows you to add buffs to basic bullets & placed heal items. You can even buff yourself with this
- Goddess of Healing: increases the healing ability of bullets and placed items. Helpful when carrying teammates.
Noteworthy Shield Skills:
- Auto-guard: Useful, but will probably turn you into a bad player if you rely on it
- Fortification: A good skill, but its sort of the same thing as with Auto-guard.
- Status Ailment Immunity: Useless against Aragami that don’t inflict respective ailment
- Vigilant: Small defense increase
- Ace: Defense in combat with multiple Aragami. Useless in 1-on-1 fights.
- Calm Breather: Always nice to have faster Stamina recovery
Noteworthy Universal Skills:
- Health: Max HP increase
- Oracle: Max Oracle increase. Useless if you don’t use Guns
- Stamina: Max Stamina increase. Can be at odds with 11th Hour.
- Bottomless: Bonus materials when devouring corpse. Great for farming
- Arcfinder: Abandoned Arcs+1.Great for farming
- Aficionado: Rare Abandoned Arcs. Great for farming
- Light Sleeper & Sharp Analyst: Burst Arts/Accel Trigger leveling rate. Useless if your skills are maxed
- Cardiograph: See enemy HP.
- Athlete: Reduces all stamina used. Helpful for Stamina hungry weapons.
There are a few more good Skills such as the Bond Break rewards, Aragami HP Vision (you can also make NPC teammates do this for you) and the OP use reduction. Look at this list of noteworthy skills again and look over all the skills in this database. Think about what seems like the most worthwhile to you and assemble a build around those skills.
