    Dev Diary #2 - Talent Tree Progression

    Welcome to the world of Mandragora! This series of 'Dev Diary' posts will take you behind the scenes and give you a more in-depth look at all the cool features you can expect from our game as we get closer to release.

    •────────────────────────────•

    Hi everyone!

    It's Dev Diary time again, where we're highlighting various key aspects of our upcoming game to help you gain extra insight into what features to expect in Mandragora.

    And we really hope you'll enjoy getting your hands on features like this when our public demo launches on September 30!

    Today's topic: Talent Trees!

    In our first Dev Diary, we talked about Gear Progression, which was all about the many epic items you'll be able to find, equip, craft, and enchant in Mandragora.

    And today, we'll learn about another hugely important source of character power: Talent Trees.

    Wait... Talent Trees, plural?

    Yes! The full game will include 6 classes in total, and each have their own Talent Tree that helps shape their unique playstyle.

    You are not limited to your own Talent Tree: after level 15, you are free to unlock other class trees as well, which allows you to create mixed classes. However, at first, it's best to stick to your starting class Talent Tree until you learn all the basics. And if you make a mistake, no worries! The Talent Tree can be fully reset.

    How do Talent Trees work in Mandragora?

    Let's take a look at the inner workings of the Talent Tree using the Vanguard class as an example. This class will be available in our public demo launching September 30 - so you'll also be able to discover all its power firsthand then!

    Vanguards are elite fighters within the ranks of the Inquisitors who employ raw physical prowess, massive shields, and brutal two-handed weapons.

    Whenever you Level Up in Mandragora, or use an Offering Shrine, you gain Talent Points which you can spend in the Talent Tree.
