Enshrouded - The Best Skills To Get Early

and shrouded Blends elements of Adventure and survival games together in a way I don't think a lot of players have seen this is most clear when talking about the game's skill tree system which is more RPG than anything else that being said it is essential I repeat essential to not disregard this system as some of the skills can quite literally change the gameplay experience at a foundational level but before we get into all of that we first need to understand how we get skill points in and shrouded according to the developers and tested ourselves ahead of launch the best way to level up and get skill points is by killing enemies specifically tougher enemies in the Shroud and around points of interest mining which actually surprised me but makes sense given how important Gathering and crafting is discovering new points of interest of which there are many across Ember Veil and clearing the root shroud at Elixir Wells a combination of these activities will not only increase your character's level but will net you additional skill points that you can allocate into the rather expansive Early Access skill tree I should also note that skill points can easily be reset by interacting with your flame alter there is a small cost associated with respecing tied to your flame Alters level but it's nothing to really worry about the real question though is what do you spend your points on and that's the right question to ask yourself because during the early parts of the game you're still trying to figure out exactly what to do and how best to master the world the first skill I absolutely recommend you get is double jump whether it's exploration or combat having an extra jump is a game changer you can spec into this two different ways and it's really up to you how you want to do it if you start in the athlete tree you can grab jump attack which gives you a decent melee enhancement but I prefer to go through the Survivor tree and grab endurance and runner for a combined three skill points early on you are at the whim of your stamina restriction so I found that whatever I could do to lessen that burden helped make the gam playay experience that much more enjoyable if you're planning on doing a lot of resource Gathering and don't lie you are then don't look past the Lumberjack and Mason skills right in the central circle these don't require any prerequisites and give your fing Axe and pickaxe a 30% increase to damage which means they're dealing more damage to Resource nodes thus increasing the speed and gather rate of all resources if you're someone that doesn't plan on doing a lot of gathering at the start then don't waste the points as each node costs two skill points but if you're at the point where resource farming is a high priority then it's well worth the investment at this point you have to ask yourself what type of damage do you want to deal it could be tempting to beine for the larger skill nodes but if you do that you're overlooking some valuable passive Buffs that could play a big factor in your overall combat Effectiveness in the Warrior tree is the Warrior's path which increases all melee damage by 10% in the ranger tree is Marksman which increases all range damage by 10% and in the Wizard tree this is the way increases all magic damage by 10% and as we talked about in our wish I knew sooner tips and tricks video you're most likely going to be using a combination of two types of damage thanks to the game's quick swap range system so it's worth investing in whatever two notes increase the damage that matches your play style for me a melee Caster I want that bump in melee and Magic damage but you might want it in melee and ranged either way a 10% flat buff to damage is nothing to pass over from here on out things get specific to the play style that you want to adopt and luckily in shrouded gives you a decent number of options for melee Focus players I recommend you keep investing in the Warrior tree slasher brew and thrust all further increase your melee damage based on the type of weapon you use and there's a second set of nodes after that butcher Hammer Time and Pierce which increase the damage further based on my experience it's also worth putting a few points in the tank tree especially if you're going to be primarily fighting in melee skills like shiny plates and heavy plates are perfect early game skills and scale great into the late game because as you upgrade your armor the skills provide even more value for ranged Focus players you have a lot of options in the ranger tree we talked about the 10% increase with Marksman before but one node beyond that is Sharpshooter which gives you an additional 20% damage to ranged attacks it's also worth checking out sniper in the Assassin tree for a 10% increase to critical hit chance with all ranged weapons as you push further into the trees it's worth picking up skill shot which increases the damage to an enemy's head by 20% further increasing your overall maximum range damage if the goal is to pick targets apart from a distance it's hard to go wrong within this Ranger tree and it's definitely worth experimenting with things like Eagle Eye which may or may not work for your play style it's not a direct damage increase so I recommend it only if you think it's going to help you during combat finally for my magic Focus players out there you have a lot of options but if damage is our Focus then the wizard tree is where you'll want to spend a majority of your points first we should pick up quick charge which reduces the ramp up time of a staff spell by 50% making it easier to cast faster it's also worth putting points in arsonist Thunder or Iceman which gives you a flat 10% increase to a specific magic type obviously only choose the skill that matches the spells that you'll be using arsonist for fire Thunder for shock and Iceman for ice use three more points and invest in the second node in that sequence pyromaniac lightning and subzero for an additional 20% damage increase sliding all the way over to the battle mage tree it's worth picking up the unity skill as well which gives your wi attacks a 24% chance to recover 2% of your total Mana you could rely on potions but for the most part you're not going to be able to chain together spells so this is a great way to quickly build back up your Mana reserves and continue casting that Dynamic does change a bit in the late game but early on this is essential if you're planning on checking out the game with a few friends then definitely take a look look at the Healer skill trait taking on some of the tougher enemies in the game I can absolutely see the value in having a pocket healer it's just not something we had the opportunity to test for ourselves I didn't want to end the video without calling attention to some of the best skills in the game the ones I think you should be aiming to get as soon as you have enough skill points again these tap into your preferred play style so there are multiple choices but they're all worth the investment for melee focused players the veteran skill which increases your critical hit Chance by 10% is a must have in the Barbarian tree all the way at the end is blood Rage which increases your melee damage by 20% whenever an enemy near the player is killed with a melee weapon that is a huge damage buff and absolutely worth the long-term investment for a ranged Focus player I recommend checking out Ranger which gives you a bonus to endurance dexterity stamina recharge crit chance and crit damage talk about value that's five Buffs all from one note multi-shot is another interesting skill one I think you could take advantage of if you're primarily an Archer being able to deal multi-target damage as a ranged Focus player isn't always easy and this skill helps bridge the gap making you more effective while dealing with hordes of enemies finally for all my magic Focus players out there I recommend following the wizard skill treat all the way through and picking up the wizard skill which increases crit chance when attacking with magical weapons chain hit which will automatically trigger a second hit on another Target whenever you crit with a magical weapon and mass destruction which further increases your ability to deal AOE damage to multiple enemies it is a sizable investment to reach this point in the Wizard skill tree but it's well worth it now if you really want to get a leg up in the early game with a few more skill choices and a mesh of other tips and tricks check out our wish I knew sooner guide already up on the channel so there you have it a look at some of the best and most potent skills in enshrouded keep in mind this is an early access game and things will change so while the information here is relevant now as the game continues development expect to see more or different skills come into play my name is Kodiak and
