Mechanics

Mercenaries earn one talent point for each level gained, which they can use to develop their unique skill sets. The talent tree is divided into three sections: Core Talents, Keystone Talents, and Mastery.

• Core Talents and Keystone Talents can each be upgraded up to five levels, while Mastery has only one level.

• The talent tree is tiered, with Core Talents split into three layers. Investing five points into one layer unlocks the next.

• For every 15 points spent on Core Talents, players can invest five points into Keystone Talents, and each set of five points in Keystone Talents unlocks a Mastery.

• Keystone Talents are divided into four sets, with each set containing two mutually exclusive talents.

By the time a mercenary reaches the maximum level of 40, an ideal build would include 30 points in Core Talents, 10 points in Keystone Talents, and two Masteries, giving them a highly specialized skill set.
