Rayan Skill Tree

Rayans are a unique faction that allow them to summon a shadow to fight alongside them in battle. While the shadow is summoned, Rayans can use powerful skills with the shadow also mirroring the moves, making for double the attack. Although Rayan skills are based mostly on utilization of the shadow summon, the skill trees are divided into 3 categories corresponding to one of the Rayan tome pages:

• Blade: Corresponds to the middle column of the skill trees. This column contains the Rayans' main attacks, and the corresponding tome page is utilized to boost these attacks. Rayan attacks are categorized into 3 groups:
  • Opening skills are more effective while the player is invisible.
  • Boosting skills add combo points to a Rayan's combo meter. As the Rayan accumulates more combo points, the stronger the Finishing attack will be.
  • Finishing skills will consume the accumulated combo points, but in return increase critstrike rate based on how many combo points there were to consume.
• Shadow: Corresponds to the leftmost column of the skill trees. This column focuses on invisibility skills and debuffs for the player's targets.
• Dance: Corresponds to the rightmost column of the skill trees. This column focuses on the Rayan's shadow summons, alongside with skills and passives that boost both the shadow and its caster.
