Fate/Zero makes me wish I knew more about class abilities and such of the original game.
What abilities were you wondering about?
Nothing really specific... but you'll see dialog in the show that mentions how the Archer class has solo skills or how Saber was using an ability to keep her sword hidden. This got me curious about what other abilities exist and specific bonuses each class receives.
The Archer class (as in anyone summoned as Archer) gets an ability called "Independent Action." Independent Action allows Archer to survive without a master for a certain length of time. How long will depend on their rank in the skill, and the maximum possible is ~2 days. What that usually translates to is that Archers can be hard to control and not necessarily loyal if they don't see eye to eye with their Master's goals.
Saber's using an ability of her own called Invisible Wind because her actual sheath for the sword was lost. It's an ability that THAT specific Saber has because of who she is, not because of the class she was summoned to.
So you probably need the Type-Moon wiki to sift through. I linked to the Servant page for you. Oh, if it wasn't obvious, THERE'S A LOT OF SPOILERS on that page. Don't scroll too fast if you are spoilerphobic.
