Keystone

A Keystone is a unique and powerful passive skill node that significantly impacts how a character is played. They are typically characterized by having stats that have both positive and negative effects.

Interactions

Interactions with unique items

Some unique items grant a keystone's effect without needing to have the keystone allocated in the passive tree. Allocating the keystone will not impart any additional benefits.

Some unique items have named stats which are similar to keystones that cannot be found on the passive tree:

• Irongrasp: Iron Grip
• Irongrasp: Iron Will
• Mahuxotl's Machination: Everlasting Sacrifice
