Tree identities, effects, connections, and icons come from the official 0.5.2 export. The class corpus was checked 2026-07-30 for game version 0.5.4d.

Gameplay identity

Current official tree

Core mechanics

Shaper of Storms and Shaper of Winter let all Hit damage contribute to Shock or Chill.
Constant Gale grants Arcane Surge, while Force of Will connects its effect to missing Mana and redirects part of incoming damage to Mana.

Important tradeoff

The double Shock and double Chill branches apply less magnitude to each ailment, so their extra instances are not free full-strength copies.
