Hero + gear progressionSpoiler-free

Hero growth

  1. Earn one Class point on every level-up beginning at level 2; level-ups do not grant attribute points.
  2. Spend Class points in Pulseweaver or Siegewright with K, or bank them for later.
  3. Find and craft Skill Hearts, then aboard the ship use the slot buttons or drag Hearts between carried and compatible equipped slots.

Hero level pacing

Early levels take about ten ordinary monster defeats, while later levels steadily become longer goals. Elite monsters, bosses, and quest rewards can shorten these estimates.

The first root purchase locks the opposite available tree. There are no hybrid links in the current trees. Pulseweaver fills at 45 ranks and Siegewright at 31 ranks. Additional points remain banked after the selected tree is filled, and the Second Wind Academy can refund the entire tree so the hero may choose the other root. 3 additional classes are announced as coming soon and cannot be selected yet.
