Can we please get a consolidated post...

...listing the effects that Specialization has on each skill?

@Chris

 

Was just about to post about same thing... A consolidated post works but considering how important these new masteries are...shouldnt they be added to sota wiki with a disclaimer of course that they may suffer changes in the future... I really have no idea what each skill is getting from them and would like to have a go to place to study each mastery.

 

+1

 

A big plus 1 from me as well.

 

It would be really nice if the information was listed on the tooltip of each skill.

 

Big +1 here - so far between Heavy Armor, Ranged, and Polearms, leveling the specialization doesn't make the skills feel any different (in pve at least). Maybe if I saw the tooltip reflect the change, had a list to compare against it would 'feel' better, but as is even when this goes live id probably skip this 'optional mechanic'.

Best list at the moment, all subject to change of course, and a lot of the skills aren't on there (summons, etc.) but the above's what I've been using when testing things on QA
Agree an official list or something on the tooltip would be nice.

The individual skill tooltips DO show the extra effects they are getting.....at least some of them. Bugging those that don't.

 

Speaking of effects for each specialization - does anyone know if there is a bonus if 2 of your specializations can turn into a combo? Is there still a specialization bonus to the combo?

 

Sweet, thanks.

 

And also the new... less powerful polearms buffs

 

Thanks Chris!

 

Was this ever done? There is still a ton of misinformation and confusion about this new system. The patch notes don't really say much.

 

I know I'm still confused. Do you specialize in a specific skill or does it effect every glyph in a tree? Does it apply to combos?

 

You specialize in a specific passive after you've reached lvl 80 in the parent passive, for example Fire Reach needs to be level 80 and then you can unlock fire specialization. The passive skill Fire Specialization effects all your Fire Skills in a variety of ways specific to each skill, one example would be adding a fire resistance debuff to fire arrow. Upon reaching specialization lvl 80 every skill in your tree gets an extra glyph for charging in a locked slot or to put in your deck for unlocked slots.

 

Thanks for the clarification!
