Hybrid Slot Abilities
Overview

Hybrid Slot Abilities are powers placed in the Hybrid Slot of the Incarnate System. The Hybrid Slot Abilities grant Incarnates new powers based on the core Archetypes. Characters can choose a style that shores up a weakness, or one that further strengthens existing abilities. The Assault Tree increases damage, the Control Tree assists in locking down foes, the Melee Tree increases defense and status protection, and the Support Tree grants bonuses to the character and their teammates.
A subscription is required for players to access the Incarnate System.

Melee
The Melee tree grants a regeneration buff plus either a defense or resistance buff, and higher levels may grant some Status Effect protection. These buffs stack based on the number of enemies within melee range.
- The Radial branch of this tree produces a Taunt aura. This aura grows stronger in taunt power as the tree is climbed.
- The Core branch of this tree front-loads some of their maximum buff value as the tree is climbed. The higher in the tree, the larger the portion of buff value is front-loaded. At tier 1, the core side of the tree will front-load 1/3rd of its protection, and the core side will front-load up to 3/4ths of its protection at tier 4.

The Support tree gives the character access to a league affecting toggle which gives a damage and defense buff. Higher tiers may also buff accuracy and/or may grant enhancement bonuses to stuns, sleeps, immobilizes, holds, confuses, fears, terrorizes, and heals. Core versions of the Support tree double the bonuses for pets.
Up to five Support Hybrid powers can stack on a single target at any given time.
