Five Talent Skills!
And he could choose two at a time!
Chen Mo knew that there were good things at the back, but when he saw that he could choose two out of the five Talent Skills, he could not help but be stunned.
Some players had already passed the Nightmare Level Talent Trial on the forum, and the reward was a Talent Skill and a Class Skill, plus the option to teleport to a small city under the three main cities.
Chen Mo thought that the Hell Level Talent Trial's final reward might be a better Talent Skill and Class Skill, but the reward was much better than he imagined!
Talent Skills were not like normal Class Skills. There was a fundamental difference between learning an additional Talent Skill and learning an additional Class Skill!
Players who did not participate in the Talent Trial had to go to the Class Union in the three main cities to accept the Class Change Mission. Only after completing the mission could they obtain the corresponding Talent Skill.
In other words, everyone could only learn one Talent Skill now. If they wanted to learn a second Talent Skill, they had to wait until the second Class Change.
No one was sure when the second Class Change would be, but there was news on the forum that it was Level 40.
Level 20 players had not appeared yet, and Level 40 was still far away.
Chen Mo could learn two Talent Skills at once, which was about the same as other people's Second Class Change.
Of course, strictly speaking, it would definitely be different from the players who had gone through their second class advancement.
Trap Mastery, Crossbow Mastery, and Command Mastery. These three Talent Skills were the basic Mastery Skills of the Hunter's Trap Style, Poison Crossbow Style, and Pet Style. Only after mastering one of the three Talent Skills could he learn the Advanced Talent of the corresponding Style during his second class advancement.
Mastery of the Three style style style style Mastery of the Hunter style style: Mastery Mastery of The Skill Skill Mastery.
It was different from the second class advancement, but the advantage of being able to learn one more skill was still too obvious. If Chen Mo wanted to, he could walk the path of traps and pets at the same time.
With the two styles stacked together, his damage output alone was not as simple as one plus one!
Skill Skill Mastery Mastery, Skill Mastery Skill:.
Trap Mastery, Crossbow Mastery, and Control Mastery. Chen Mo was no stranger to these three Hunter Talent Skills. There were already many posts on the forums discussing and analyzing them.
The Trap Mastery skill's description was very clear and simple. After learning it, not only would it increase the power of traps, Hunters would also be able to equip gloves and other weapons.
Secondary weapons were special equipment. If Chen Mo learned Mastery of Trap, his main weapon would be the crossbow, and his secondary weapon would be the gloves. When Chen Mo used the crossbow to attack, the damage would be calculated according to the attributes of the crossbow. If Chen Mo set up a trap, the damage would be calculated according to the attributes of the gloves.
Crossbow Mastery was the same as Mastery of Trap. It also increased the power of the crossbow and unlocked secondary weapons. However, the secondary weapons that Hunters could equip were a little special. They could equip daggers or crossbows.
Equip a dagger and crossbow at the same time. When using the crossbow to attack, the main weapon would be the crossbow. When using the dagger to attack, the main weapon would be the dagger. The weapons would be switched automatically and there was no cooldown.
This playstyle was a little special, so Crossbow Mastery was very popular among the Hunter class players.
However, the most important thing for Mastery of Crossbow players was the Special Item Bar.
This Special Item Bar was a little special. Poisons crafted by players could be placed in it so that each arrow would have a corresponding poison damage. Apart from poisons, some powders that could be used to restrain monsters, such as Mercury Powder. It had a special effect on Vampires that appeared near the City of Shadows.
Mastery of Command was a Talent Skill of Pet Logistics. A Hunter who learned Mastery of Command could fight with two pets at the same time. The Intelligence and Spirit attributes could also be increased. If a Hunter didn't learn Mastery of Command, the Intelligence and Spirit attributes wouldn't be very useful.
Pet Logistics Hunters could also equip secondary weapons. This secondary weapon was a staff type weapon. The Intelligence and Magic Attack of the staff were much higher than crossbows.
However, a Hunter's staff was different from a Mage's or Priest's weapon. Although they were both staffs, a Hunter's staff would have a special Secondary Weapon Note. Without a Secondary Weapon Note, a Hunter's staff could not be used.
Someone on the forum had shown a few examples of Secondary Weapon Staffs. Compared to Mages and Priests of the same level, Secondary Weapon Staffs had a much lower Magic Attack. However, compared to crossbows and daggers, Secondary Weapon Staffs had a much higher Magic Attack.
These were the three main styles of the Hunter class. Each of the three styles had their own characteristics and their paths were obvious.
Moreover, although the description of the Three Mastery Skills didn't state it clearly, many advanced Hunter skills required the corresponding Talent Mastery to learn. Therefore, although Chen Mo had five Talent Skills to choose from, and two of them were rare Talent Skills that other players had never seen before, he still had to choose at least one of the three Talent Skills. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to learn almost all the advanced Hunter skills.
If it weren't for the Freelance Skill System, Chen Mo would have to think carefully before making a decision. However, now that he knew the essence of the Freelance Skill System, he had already decided to go with the Trap Style.
Under the Freelance Skill System, the flaws of the Trap Style were very small. There were many types of traps, which were suitable for a loner like him.
Chen Mo could also choose the other two Talent Skills, but Chen Mo only thought for a moment before shaking his head and rejecting them.
The three Talent Skills could allow him to equip an additional secondary weapon, but there was only one secondary weapon slot. Even if he learned two Talent Mastery Skills, there wouldn't be a second secondary weapon slot. He couldn't equip two different secondary weapons at the same time, so the value of learning two Talent Mastery Skills would be reduced by more than half.
Chen Mo looked at the other two Rare Talent Skills: Hide and Plunder!
These two were truly Rare Talent Skills that no one on the forum had mentioned before.
Chen Mo wasn't too sure about Hide, but Chen Mo didn't need to look at Plunder to feel that this Talent Skill was probably the basic Talent of the Hunter's ultimate form, Wealth Hunter!
Chen Mo was good at analysis. To be honest, Plunder wouldn't bring him much benefit in the short term. After all, as far as he knew, monsters in the early stages of the game wouldn't drop anything good. Choosing Plunder was definitely better than choosing Control Mastery.
Control Mastery allowed him to fight two pets at the same time, and the increase in strength was obvious.
However, Plunder was a Talent that would become more useful in the later stages of the game. It would never expire.
Obtaining this special Talent might trigger special missions or events in the game in the future.
This wasn't Chen Mo's own speculation. Although the game hadn't been in beta for long, the missions and events that players of the same profession received and encountered on the forum were already very different according to the profession's Talent Skill.
On the other hand, if he chose Control Talent, if he didn't learn a more advanced Pet Style Talent during his second profession change, the effect of Control Talent would become weaker and weaker, and eventually become useless.
On the other hand, Plunder was a Talent that could only be obtained through the Hell Level Talent Trial. Its rarity was needless to say.
The rarer something was, the more valuable it was. Since Plunder was so rare, it must have its reasons.
"Trap Mastery!
Plunder! "
Chen Mo quickly made his choice.
System Notification: You are about to learn the skill "Trap Mastery." Would you like to use the "Skill Mutation Scroll?"
Hahaha, it really works!
Chen Mo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the System Notification!
He didn't hold much hope that he would bring the Skill Mutation Scroll with him. He didn't expect it to be effective for Talent Skills!
Who else in the game could have a mutated Talent Skill other than him!
"Use!"
System Notification: You have learned the Talent Skill "Trap Mastery (Mutation)"!
Trap Mastery (Mutation): The number of Trap Skills that can exist at the same time increases by two, Trap Skill Cooldown reduced by 15%, Trap Skill Power increased by 15%, Secondary Weapon Bar unlocked.
System Notification: You are about to learn the skill "Plunder." Would you like to use the "Skill Mutation Scroll?"
Plunder worked too!
Fortunately, he was prepared!
Knowing that the Nightmare Level Secondary Skill could be learned, he naturally wouldn't bring only one Skill Mutation Scroll!
"Use!"
System Notification: You have learned the Talent Skill "Plunder (Mutation)"!
Plunder (Mutation): Every time you kill an enemy, there is a chance to directly obtain money or equipment or items. There is a small chance to obtain equipment or items that won't drop under normal circumstances.
…
The first part was even better.
The protagonist was finally going to leave the Novice Village. Everyone, let's celebrate!
