Mastery

“Another Wayfinder fumbling about my Archives.”
This page is Archived!
The content was relevant to an obsolete version of Wayfinder, and has since been removed, retired or reworked.
For the current mastery system, see Talents.

Weapon Mastery determined which class of Weapons a Wayfinder could equip, as well as associated Mastery benefits. For each Archetype, each weapon class had three Masteries, for a total of 36 Masteries. Only one Mastery of a weapon class could have been active at a time. After Version 0.4 the Weapon Mastery system was simplified and merged into the Talents system.
