Talent trees & synergies
Every 10 levels you earn a talent point: open the talent panel (hotkey T, or at the temple) and choose 1 of 3 passive talents per tier β 8 tiers, 24 talents per class, MMORPG-style.
- Synergies: talents come in colour-coded themes. Learn 3 of the same colour to unlock a set bonus β become a Flamelord, a Bloodrage berserker, a Plaguelord, a Stormlord... 8 synergies to discover.
- Capstone auras: choose a level-80 talent and everyone will see it β a wisp orbits the Mage, the Berserker burns with sacred flames, a spectral mist shrouds the Necromancer, golden lightning dances around the Einherjar.
- Living tooltips: every ability description updates with your talents and synergies; the panel shows your aggregated bonuses.
- Chose poorly? Respec at the temple for 100 coins.
How to play
- Build the Temple of Classes with the hammer (Misc category): 20 Stone, 10 Fine Wood, 3 Surtling Cores. A shrine with Odin's statue, stone pillars and ever-burning braziers.
- Interact with the temple (
E) and choose your way. - Gain XP by killing monsters (tougher monsters give more; bosses give triple) or by offering at the temple: trophies +50 XP, boss trophies +500 XP, 10 coins +20 XP.
- Cast abilities with Shift+1 β¦ Shift+8 (configurable in the BepInEx config). A Valheim-style ability bar at the bottom shows icons, hotkeys, cooldowns and unlock levels.
- Ability damage scales with your class level. You can abandon your way at the temple (resets progress).
Class and XP are stored in your character save.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/gianl.waysofthegods.cfg: ability hotkeys, talent panel hotkey and XP multiplier.
