Where to invest masteries points?

JessieSJessieS Member Posts: 1,767 ★★★★★
I have four mastery points and I am about to get another one in a few hours. I have been reading up some mastery guides but I still wanted to check the opinion of some more experience players. Where would you reccomend that I invest my points ? I am an average player who is currently trying to become uncollected and explore act 4. I am about average at dex and parry. My top champions are CapIW , Corvus and Sentinel. I also have several thousand units saved if buying cores is really needed

    Willpower and max out block proficiency whilst you’re at it. Also remove the points in vitality/extra vitality. You might also want to look at glass cannon. It is a suicide mastery but not one that will kill you directly.

    This is how I would reshuffle my mastery points if I were you:

    Remove 2 points from Vitality
    Remove 1 point from Greater Vitality
    Remove 1 point from Energy Resistance
    Remove 4 points from Limber
    Remove 1 point from Dexterity
    Remove 2 points from Petrify
    Remove 1 point from Lesser Cruelty

    So now we've removed 12, and with the 5 you've got on standby takes us to a total of 17. This is where I would place them:

    Add 1 point to Block Proficiency
    Unlock and Add 1 point to Salve
    Unlock and Add 3 points to Recovery
    Unlock and Add 3 points to Stupefy
    Unlock and Add 1 point to Pacify
    Unlock and Add 3 points to Glass Cannon
    Unlock and Add 1 point to Despair
    Unlock and Add 3 points to Deep Wounds
    Unlock and Add 1 point to Assassin

    Also, here's a nice in depth guide in case you want to learn more in your own time:

    Agree with above.
    Would also remove the Cosmic Class mastery.

    If you don’t want to fully open DeepWounds/Assassin nodes, might want Willpower instead. Would need 15 in Defense first, so max out BlockProf, just 1 in PerfectBlock, and then 4 in StandYourGround should be 15 n order to put just 1 in Willpower.

    Wow thank you so much for this detailed post. I heard of this type of setting but I think I am not experienced enough to take advantage of something like this. I am an average at best player and I am a bit hesitant to invest so much in such a radical change

    I am looking more the most basic things that will help slowly but steadily get ahead

    Like I will increase my block profiency for sure but should I also go for salve and recovery if I don’t have a suicide setup ? Should I invest more in lesser cruelty and precision? Is stupefy worth if I am more concentrated on content instead of arenas? Basic stuff like that

    Most of what he recommended is indeed pretty basic (plus Willpower I mentioned), except the Deep Wounds branch, and won’t cost that much.

    If short of points, maybe add to the Glass Cannon over time.

    Happy to help! Even if you're not experienced enough, this is the kind of mastery that will enhance your all around utility in the game. It is indeed pretty basic, just like SummonerNR said.

    And if you're looking for specific answers to your questions:

    1) Yes, you should max out Recovery if you plan on unlocking Willpower, and I recommend you do that. Maybe keep 1 point in Salve only and save the other 2 for Stand Your Ground.

    2) Don't invest more in Lesser Cruelty and Precision. You've already maxed out Cruelty and Precision (which is good) so you're better off looking for other utility.

    3) Maxing out Stupefy is always a good idea. Even in questing, you'll run into opponents with Limber. And sometimes, the longer stun duration can help certain champions charge up (think Human Torch) or regenerate (think Blade) while the opponent is stunned.
