What Is Retraining?

[Crimson Rose]

I am unclear as to what exactly retraining is. I have not really used it yet.

As a weapon - say a sword - goes up a level, you get a point you can use to increase abilities - such as hack - or bring in new ones - such as flourish. My impression is that retraining resets all those bilities back to default so that you can reassign them in completely different ways. Is this correct?

I have been going thru this forum and seen the basic instructions, and nowhere that I have found is this explained clearly.
