Warpriest and Warsoul lock each other out - WAI or not?

[Zhyano]

Hi!

Started playing a Maul cleric a la Axel, having a lot of fun so far!

Just took a fvs level at 17, to get a wisdom trance (that is both cheaper to get and better than the falconry trance by giving attack), as im wisdom based.

When building it seemed like a bigbrain move lol, sadly it seems that for some reason, without the tooltips mentioning it at all.

It seems like both being the same name (even the ranged/melee version across both trees) is the main problem for that. Is it intended for them to being lockout or is that a bug i can report to get my cheapo supertrance? :D


Build at cap is 18/1/1, so the fvs isnt impacting me much negatively, but isnt quite helping either

Any input?

thanks in advance :)

I would _assume_ it IS intended, as they're basically the same tree. I'm rather confused why you took FVS to get the trance rather than taking it in Warpriest though?

You can only trait into a single trance skills on a character and then it locks out all other trances skills from all other trees. edit: oh probably meant the full trees. Probably working as intended just because they're basically the same and there's little reason to do both.

Well, there is a big reason i want to take FvS trance and not cleric one:

Im wisdom focused, so my wisdom sits at about 90ish at endgame (no filis, not well optimized, but good baseline), while my Cha is at about 40ish. that means Cha trance is completely worthless over just using insightful items, but wisdom would be a huge improvement.

And fvs trees are generally just cleric in better, but i like clerics more gameplay wise (feel more holy).

My build is mainly focused on healing in melee with healaura, ameliorating strike and hitting 130+ dire charge. This is easily doable with wisdom trance, but impossible without. Falconry is out of question, since it kills of ameliorating strike, and that is too awesome to give up. And gearing on melee clerics is hard enough to fit in charisma in addition.

It's probably for the same reason why you can't take Arcane Archer and an Elf and as also a Ranger.

Can you take Eldritch Knight as a Sorcerer and as a Wizard at the same time? I've never checked.

Take 3 more FvS, and just use warsoul. It has haste boost anyways, so it is superior, at least until they remove haste boost from the game.
