Melee classes receive unique abilities called disciplines starting in The Ruins of Kunark expansion. Hybrid classes begin receiving disciplines in The Scars of Velious expansion. Each class receives some common disciplines as well as unique abilities. Disciplines act as a kind of special state that, once activated, only last for a certain time.

To open your discipline window press Alt+C.

When disciplines were first introduced with the release of Kunark, they were gained immediately upon reaching the required level. After the December 18, 2003 patch on EQ Live, they were purchased from vendors in the East Commonlands tunnel or Plane of Knowledge as tomes that had to be handed in to a guild master.
