Talent picks

Greatsword Specialization icon

Greatsword Specialization

When wielding a Greatsword, you can equip one additional skill, but the Polearm and Shield has one skill slot disabled.

Crime icon

Crime

Execute with a Greatsword no longer consumes Wither (but damage is slightly reduced) and extends the duration of Wither.

Bad Karma icon

Bad Karma

Wither applied by a Greatsword also inflicts a linked debuff. When Execute extends Wither's duration, additional linked debuffs are applied. Up to 3 linked debuffs can be applied, in order: slightly reduced Movement Speed; slightly increased Vulnerability; slight Health loss over time. When Wither is removed, all linked debuffs are removed as well.

Legacy icon

Legacy

When enemies affected by Wither die, you recover a small amount of Health. The recovery amount increases based on the number of debuffs linked to the target's Wither state, and is further increased if the target is a player. This effect does not apply when equipped with a Polearm and Shield.
