Clarification & Terminology
-Characters begin gaining mastery points at rank 11 (ALTHOUGH NOT EVERY SINGLE RANK), and will gain a total of 25 points by Rank 40.
- For core training, the rank number next to the ability’s name is the character rank needed to train the ability. You will be able to train all of them by rank 40.
- For mastery training, the number of mastery points next to the ability’s name is the required number of points invested into the path/tree. You will gradually receive 25 points so choose wisely!
-‘Cripple’ abilities are a class of debuffs, which are often the prerequisite to another ability’s effect. (example: Castigation is casted on the target and now the target is ‘crippled’, then you use Weight of Guilt and (provided the target is still under the ‘crippled’ status) the target will be snared, reducing their run speed for 40%)
-Blessings are a class of buffs and you can only have one casted at a time per target.
-Prayers are a class of buffs that affect both the Warrior Priest and her/his group when activated, lasting until death or if toggled off. You end up having a varied selection to choose from but can only have one activated.
- ‘Special range’ under certain abilities means that the ability uses a less than common targeting method, which is explained in the description of the ability (please note that the term ‘special range’ does not appear in-game and is only used for this guide).
- All of the abilities under core training are essentially core abilities (means you can train them all), however a good portion of them fall under certain paths/trees as well. For example, Bludgeon falls under Path of Wrath. What does this mean? The more points you spend in Path of Wrath, the more powerful Bludgeon will become. This works the same with the other paths and abilities; the only ones who do not benefit from any mastery training are only labeled as ‘core ability’. All abilities listed under Mastery Training benefit from points spent into their respective trees.
-The amount of damage or amount healed in each of the abilities’ descriptions will scale with your level/rank. With that said, the amounts that appear on this guide are all for the LEVEL 1 versions of the abilities. By the time you train them, most of the abilities will damage/heal for much more amounts than what is seen here.
Strength:Increases melee damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or parry attacks.
Willpower: Increases your chance to disrupt attacks and increases healing dealt to allies.
Toughness: Reduces the damage dealt to you by opponents. (all types)
Wounds: Increases the amount of health you have.
Initiative: Increases your chance to evade attacks, detect stealthed enemies, and lowers your chance to be critically hit.
Weapon Skill: Increases your chance to parry attacks and penetrate an opponent’s armor.
Ballistic Skill: Increases ranged damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or evade attacks.
Intelligence: Increases magic damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or disrupt attacks.
*Parry works against melee attacks only, Dodge works against ranged attacks only, Disrupt works against magical attacks only, and Block (shield) works against all attacks.
*Weapon skill stat adds to a separate stat (Armor Penetration) which is a percentage representing how much of the enemy’s armor you ignore when you attack.
*Initiative stat adds to a separate stat (Chance to be critically hit) which is a percentage representing how open you are to be critically hit.
*For Warrior Priests 1 wound = 10 health.
*Along with Disrupt, you have resistances to various different types of magic (elemental, spiritual, corporeal).

Clarification & Terminology
-Characters begin gaining mastery points at rank 11 (ALTHOUGH NOT EVERY SINGLE RANK), and will gain a total of 25 points by Rank 40.
- For core training, the rank number next to the ability’s name is the character rank needed to train the ability. You will be able to train all of them by rank 40.
- For mastery training, the number of mastery points next to the ability’s name is the required number of points invested into the path/tree. You will gradually receive 25 points so choose wisely!
-‘Cripple’ abilities are a class of debuffs, which are often the prerequisite to another ability’s effect. (example: Castigation is casted on the target and now the target is ‘crippled’, then you use Weight of Guilt and (provided the target is still under the ‘crippled’ status) the target will be snared, reducing their run speed for 40%)
-Blessings are a class of buffs and you can only have one casted at a time per target.
-Prayers are a class of buffs that affect both the Warrior Priest and her/his group when activated, lasting until death or if toggled off. You end up having a varied selection to choose from but can only have one activated.
- ‘Special range’ under certain abilities means that the ability uses a less than common targeting method, which is explained in the description of the ability (please note that the term ‘special range’ does not appear in-game and is only used for this guide).
- All of the abilities under core training are essentially core abilities (means you can train them all), however a good portion of them fall under certain paths/trees as well. For example, Bludgeon falls under Path of Wrath. What does this mean? The more points you spend in Path of Wrath, the more powerful Bludgeon will become. This works the same with the other paths and abilities; the only ones who do not benefit from any mastery training are only labeled as ‘core ability’. All abilities listed under Mastery Training benefit from points spent into their respective trees.
-The amount of damage or amount healed in each of the abilities’ descriptions will scale with your level/rank. With that said, the amounts that appear on this guide are all for the LEVEL 1 versions of the abilities. By the time you train them, most of the abilities will damage/heal for much more amounts than what is seen here.
Strength:Increases melee damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or parry attacks.
Willpower: Increases your chance to disrupt attacks and increases healing dealt to allies.
Toughness: Reduces the damage dealt to you by opponents. (all types)
Wounds: Increases the amount of health you have.
Initiative: Increases your chance to evade attacks, detect stealthed enemies, and lowers your chance to be critically hit.
Weapon Skill: Increases your chance to parry attacks and penetrate an opponent’s armor.
Ballistic Skill: Increases ranged damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or evade attacks.
Intelligence: Increases magic damage and reduces your opponent’s chance to block or disrupt attacks.
*Parry works against melee attacks only, Dodge works against ranged attacks only, Disrupt works against magical attacks only, and Block (shield) works against all attacks.
*Weapon skill stat adds to a separate stat (Armor Penetration) which is a percentage representing how much of the enemy’s armor you ignore when you attack.
*Initiative stat adds to a separate stat (Chance to be critically hit) which is a percentage representing how open you are to be critically hit.
*For Warrior Priests 1 wound = 10 health.
*Along with Disrupt, you have resistances to various different types of magic (elemental, spiritual, corporeal).
