Six branches
The skill tree has six specialization branches: Warrior (melee power, HP), Mage (magic damage, armor pen), Guardian (defense, survivability), Assassin (crit, burst), Ranger (ranged, speed), Mystic (hybrid utility). Each branch holds roughly 33 nodes.
Skill points
Skill points come from leveling up, quest rewards, bonus SP from events, and Veilstone Pass tiers. Bonus SP is preserved across resets — a long-term investment.
Respec
Full respec is available any time. Try builds freely; nothing is permanent.
Notable nodes and keystones
Each branch has minor nodes (1 SP), notable nodes (2 SP) and keystone nodes (3 SP) at tier 6. Keystones reshape a branch — taking one on a tier usually locks the opposing option. Gem-related nodes sit at tiers 12–13.
