In the "World of Warcraft", according to their different career each role has a set of spells or special abilities. In addition to their different effects, spells and abilities,they have some inherent properties, including the cast time, the maximum range, the cooling time and the consumption value. Players only need to click the corresponding icon, or press the corresponding hotkey on the keyboard; then you can use spells and ability. Sometimes before you use the spells and abilities, you need to select the target first.
In pace with the developing of Character Level, players can learn new spells and abilities from trainers. However, some spells and abilities only can get through special items (such as books), and some are even quest. And each race has special race ability.
