Not sure which of the Arcane Lineage skill trees are worth pursuing? Well, I wasn’t either when I started playing. However, after spending a chunk of time with the Roblox RPG, I now have a good idea of how they work. So, in this guide I’ll be detailing exactly how you can expect your stats to grow by investing in the three different trees. If Arcane Lineage ever gets new skill trees, I’ll add them to this list.
Arcane Lineage is a deep and complex Roblox RPG that sees you pick a class and head out on an adventure to increase your power. The combat is turn-based, which is pleasingly old school, and features QTEs for blocking and dodging. There’s a ton of gear to unlock too, and the character building is pretty complex. So, if you like old school RPGs that don’t hold your hand, this is the one for you.
Grab it on Roblox. I also recommend checking out my other guides, including Arcane Lineage races, Arcane Lineage soul points, and Arcane Lineage quests.
Arcane Lineage Skill Trees
Now, let’s take a look at the three different skill trees that you can level up in Arcane Lineage, complete with the stats that you can expect to boost from them.
Path of Destruction
The Path of Destruction, as its name implies, is all about improving your raw damage output. In fact, it boosts every single type of damage within the game, including magical, physical, and elemental. Here are the stat boosts broken down, including how many exist on the tree:
- Overall Damage: 2
- Magic Damage: 5
- Physical Damage: 5
- Critical Damage: 2
- Critical Chance: 4
- Fire Damage: 1
- Poison Damage: 1
- Dark Damage: 1
- Holy Damage: 1
- Nature Damage: 1
- Hex Damage: 1
I recommend that everyone places at least a few points in this tree, as all classes benefit from overall damage, critical damage, and critical chance. Melee-focused characters should definitely pick up physical, while magic classes should grab magic. The rest is up to you. If you use elemental attacks a lot, definitely pick up the respective point for a further boost. You really want to maximise your damage in Arcane Lineage.
Path of Empowerment
This skill tree is all about defence and regen, so can also benefit pretty much every single class within the game. Here’s what you can expect from levelling it:
- Health: 7
- Defense: 2
- Regen: 3
- Encounter Regen: 3
Encounter regen is the regen you gain while in-battle, while regular regen is your passive regen. Both are incredibly useful, and will keep you from using health potions for longer. I’d recommend that every class max out this tree if they can. You can never have too much survivability!
Path of Sundry
This is more of a utility skill tree, which boosts your essence gain, sell price, luck, speed, and soul vault. Some of these are absolutely vital, while others you can skip depending on your class.
- Essence Gain: 4
- Sell Price Increase: 3
- Luck Increase: 3
- Speed Increase: 4
- Soul Vault: 1
I’d recommend grabbing Essence Gain right away. In fact, those four pips are probably the first four points you should spend in Arcane Lineage. Essence is your XP, and the more of it you can get for each encounter, the faster you’ll level. Luck will increase your drop rate, so is also very handy but you could save it for end game.
You probably want speed relatively quickly so you can get around the world faster, and sell price is entirely up to you. You can’t have too much gold. Soul Vault is a no-brainer.
