Capstone talents
Rows at 10, 30 and 60 points are capstone rows: you take one talent from each. This build takes:
- Level 10: lower mana cost for the strong attack
- Level 30: basic attacks can fire two projectiles
- Level 60: large attack speed and damage bonus while enemies stay out of melee range
Spend the first 5 points on the main stat or the build's defensive stat to open the next row, reach the first capstone at 10 points, and do not spread points across a row before the next row is open.
