Hybrid Slot Abilities
Overview
Requires a VIP subscription.
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.
