Archetype Skills
The seven advanced trees
Each advanced archetype had its own skills, and most divided them into trees. This page lists every tree in the final Player's Guide.
Signature Skills
These skills could be bought only by characters with the matching advanced archetype.
Skills labeled Signature were meant as the pinnacle of a character's abilities. Their high prerequisites kept most of them out of reach until later events. Rank requirements are as the final Player's Guide listed them. After June 2025 no character stood at Rank 0, so a Rank 0 skill was open to every member of the archetype. See Ranks and Retainers for how those systems worked.
Where an archetype had a primary and a secondary tree, a character could spend only half as many points in the secondary tree as in the primary.
Aurons
The abilities of Aurons centered on gathering and supporting followers of the Aurorym faith.
