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, while the crafting time, point gates and free reset work the same way. Earlier captures below use 20 points; the latest Warlock capture shows 22.

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.

20 / 22Follow one route

Captured routes use 20 or 22 points. 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.

What each icon does

The point badge shows the state in the supplied capture. A 0/x node is an available alternative, not part of that captured route.

Core

Concentrated Exploding Star

1/1

Stand still for 2 seconds to form an Arcane Missile. Each further second adds a strengthening stack, up to 5. Moving launches it; at full strength it auto-launches after 8 seconds. Base damage is 200%, plus 300% per strengthening.

Scaling

Missile Enhancement

5/5

Each strengthening adds another 40% / 80% / 120% / 160% / 200% to the missile's damage rate.

Tempo

Rapid Energy Recharge

3/3

Shortens missile strengthening time by 10% / 20% / 30%.

Scaling

Strength Through Reserve

3/3

Boosts the 4th strengthening by 100% / 200% / 300% and the 5th by 200% / 400% / 600%.

Loop

Arcane Echo

3/3

Launching a missile grants an Echo for 16 seconds. It increases the next missile's explosion damage by 15% / 25% / 40% and stacks up to 3 times.

Extra hit

Chain Explosion

1/3

When the missile explodes, it has a 10% / 20% / 30% chance to trigger one additional explosion.

Full-charge payoff

Blazing Missile

4/4

A fully strengthened missile leaves a 5-second burning area that deals 60% / 120% / 200% / 300% damage each second.

Targeting

Precision Explosion

0/1

The launched missile automatically locks onto attack targets.

Tempo

Energy Accumulation Timing

0/4

Reduces the stationary auto-launch timer by 0.5 / 1 / 1.5 / 2 seconds.

Short-charge payoff

Charged Explosion

0/4

After two consecutive launches below 3 strengthening stacks, the next missile's extra-explosion chance rises by 15% / 30% / 50% / 70%.

Combination tips

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.

Full-strength missilesLate-stack damageSustained loop

SECRET REALM · MOVE + CLEAR

Reach useful damage sooner

Rapid Energy Recharge shortens the setup. Precision Explosion helps missiles find moving targets, while Charged Explosion is written for repeated launches below 3 stacks.

Faster chargeLock-onShort launches

PACKS · SEVERAL TARGETS

Add effects after the missile lands

Chain Explosion adds another explosion chance. Blazing Missile leaves a 5-second damage area after a full charge, so use it when packs stay grouped long enough.

Core

Assassination Specialization

1/1

If no Talent skill is cast for 1.5 seconds, enter Ambush and immediately gain a damage-increase effect. Skills cast during the next 5 seconds deal 25% extra damage. Ambush has a 15-second cooldown.

First-hit burst

Shadow Explosion

5/5

After entering Ambush, your first attack against an enemy deals extra damage to enemies within 10 metres of it. Damage rate: 700% / 1,400% / 2,100% / 2,800% / 3,500%.

1/1

After remaining motionless for 14 seconds, also enter Ambush for 2 seconds. This shares a cooldown with the Ambush triggered by Assassination Specialization.

Positioning

Back Ambush

5/5

While a damage-increase effect is active, damaging a monster from behind applies an additional Laceration and increases your damage to it by 5% / 10% / 15% / 20% / 25% for 5 seconds.

Thermal Shooting

1/1

Standing still increases weapon heat by 2 points per second, up to 100. Each heat point increases damage dealt by 0.1%. Above 50 heat, Talent skills can trigger 700% bonus damage, with the chance rising at higher heat. At maximum heat, failing to reduce it within 2 seconds overheats the weapon: only Basic skills can be used for 6 seconds, then heat resets to zero.
