Class Specialization: build a route for the fight

Every class has its own Specialization tree. The rules are shared, but the node names, effects and best combinations depend on the class and the activity.

How Specialization works

Build points, then spend them on one class route.

Specialization unlocks at Character Lv40. Shards become Specialization Points, and those points activate or upgrade nodes in the tree for the class you are using. Every class has different nodes, but the crafting time, point gates, 20-point cap and free reset work the same way.

Lv40Unlock the tree

The class you are using determines which Specialization tree and nodes you can build.

ShardsEarn the material

Collect Specialization Shards from the confirmed sources shown below.

12hCreate a point

Combine shards into a Specialization Point. The first point is instant; every later point takes 12 hours.

20Follow one route

Spend toward the mechanic you want. Some nodes stay locked until enough total points have already been invested.

FreeReset and rebuild

The reset returns every point, so you can rebuild for another activity without losing points.

Read any class tree

Sort each node by the job it does

Do not judge a node in isolation. Check what it changes, what triggers it and whether that trigger actually happens in your fight.

Core mechanic

The central effect that defines how the class specialization plays.

Damage scaling

Nodes that increase the value of the hit, stack or final charge.

Tempo

Shorter charge time, faster cycles or better uptime.

Targeting

Lock-on, range or area effects that make the damage connect.

Extra trigger

Burns, chains, echoes or bonus hits that fire from the main mechanic.

Concentrated Exploding Star

This tree turns standing time into stronger Arcane Missiles. The current capture spends all 20 points on faster strengthening, stronger late stacks, repeated-launch scaling, an extra-explosion chance and the full-charge burn.

Match the route to how the fight plays

These are practical starting directions from the Mage tooltip mechanics. They are not fixed presets: reset is free, so confirm them in the same repeatable fight.

ABYSS · LONG BOSS WINDOW

Hold position and cash out full stacks

Build around Concentrated Exploding Star, Missile Enhancement and Strength Through Reserve. Arcane Echo rewards the repeated launches; Blazing Missile adds a burn when the target stays inside it.

Vital Link Specialization iconCore

Vital Link

1/1

After combat begins, every 10 seconds this attempts to link to the allied unit with the highest Max HP. Healing from your skills on that target increases by 6%. The link breaks if the target moves too far away; when it breaks, both units lose 20% Max HP. A player can be linked to only one Priest at a time, except in League Trials.

Use it whenUse the highest-Max-HP ally as the anchor and watch the distance carefully: an accidental break costs both units 20% Max HP.

Life Sharing Specialization iconDamage sharing

Life Sharing

1/1

When a linked unit takes damage greater than 20% of its Max HP, you have a 25% chance to take 50% of that damage for it. This can occur at most once every 10 seconds and cannot exceed 40% of your current HP.

Use it whenCan soften a heavy hit on a linked ally, but the Priest must have enough current HP to absorb the shared damage safely.
Resonance Amplification Specialization iconFour-link payoff
