How the tree works

Three full trees, each with 30 nodes. Only 20 points available, creating meaningful build choices at every level.

Pre-gateway: Each tree has a free starting node + 3 branches (2×3 + 1×4 = 10 nodes). A player can fill all 3 branches of one tree for 10 points without committing to a gateway.

Gateways are optional but powerful. Taking one locks out the other two. Post-gateway content is stronger per-point but requires the gateway investment.

Players who skip gateways can spread 20 points across pre-gateway branches of all 3 trees (30 pre-gateway nodes available, 20 points), gaining broad flexibility at the cost of depth.

Players who take a gateway spend 1 point + ~9-10 pre-gateway + ~8-10 post-gateway to specialize deeply.

Gateways

Gateway nodes are build-defining commitments with significant trade-offs. They sit after the pre-gateway section (10 nodes) and connect to the starting node. Taking a Gateway locks out the other Gateways.

Pre-gateway content is accessible without any commitment. A player can spend all 20 points pre-gateway without ever taking a gateway. Gateways and post-gateway nodes are stronger per-point given the tradeoff.

Similar to PoE Keystones — powerful but restrictive.

Intensity

Raw arcane power — hit harder, pierce deeper, finish wounded targets

Intensity is for players who want pure magical destruction. No gimmicks, no conditions — just bigger numbers. Gateway locks out spell power bonuses for maximum direct damage.

Xp Sources
  1. Action Type
    deal_magic_damage
    Description
    XP granted for damage dealt with magic weapons
    Formula
    floor(damage_dealt / 10) * 2
    Notes
    This is the only source of Magic XP. Higher damage per hit = more XP per hit. AoE spells that hit multiple targets grant XP per target hit. Blight DoT ticks also grant XP based on damage dealt.
