How this path is built
Rules-based, from the game's tables: the most important step first, as early as the game allows. Nothing less important delays it, and the same build always gives the same plan.
It does not claim maximum power: the game has no public damage or Combat Power formula.
- ExactPoints per level (SP, Stigma Shards, Daevanion Crystals)
- ExactSkill rank costs and the level each rank opens at
- ExactDaevanion boards, node costs and the level each board opens at
- AssumedQuest and Seal dungeon rewards: each done once, at its recommended level; Asmodian Seals on the speedrun route at that route's level, never earlier
- InferredWhich Daevanion nodes connect (the game stores no links: neighbours on the grid)
- Our ruleA Stigma is levelled only once its slot is open
- AbsentDaevanion Crystal: Azphel while leveling
What the labels mean
- Exact
- The game's data states it.
- Assumed
- Our timing convention: the game does not say when you do it.
- Inferred
- The shape of the game's data implies it.
- Our rule
- A planning rule of ours, where the game's data is silent.
- Absent
- The game's data has nothing for it.
