Masteries
The key pick in each tier of the two trees - hover or tap a mastery for the game's own text. How masteries work
Support
- T1SteadfastMAX HP.
- T2ShieldbearerStronger [Shield] buffs.
- T3Rapid ResponseTurn meter when its buffs expire.
- T4Lore of SteelStronger set bonuses (Speed...).
- T5Lasting GiftsIts buffs can last a turn longer.
- T6Timely InterventionTurn meter when an ally drops low.
Defense
- T1DefiantRES.
- T2BlastproofLess AoE damage taken.
- T3ResurgentCan shake off a debuff after a big hit.
- T4Delay DeathTakes less damage from the same enemy over time.
- T5Cycle of RevengeTurn meter when allies are crit.
- T6Unshakeable+50 RES.
Blessings
- Intimidating Presence - A good fit on a leader whose aura is worth boosting; wasted on a champion that is not leading.
- Commanding Presence - The simpler aura booster for a leader; useless unless the champion is leading the team.
- Faultless Defense - Only works with [Increase DEF] cast by the champion itself, so it is for DEF-buffing protectors.
Relics
- Journal of Necrotos - Boosts every heal and every turn-meter fill the wearer gives its allies, so the more of those a kit has, the more it gets.
- Harp of Kasbiel - Support skills that do no damage still refill a little turn meter, so buffers and healers act more often.
- Volcardiac Heart - Puts a protective buff on the whole team as the fight opens, which helps most when the first rounds are the dangerous ones.
Arena
