Talents are used in some of Loka's custom PvP minigames, such as, VotA, Ancient Gulch and Vale of the Conquest. As there are many different talents to pick from, talents can be tested out in Loka's custom Proving Grounds arena. Talents are organized by three main trees, Attack, Defense, and Support/Utility.
Accessing and Choosing Talents[]
To access and view talents, a player may type /talents in game to view the inventory where talents may be chosen. In this window, a player will start off with 8 talent points to spend on any of the skill trees. Unlocking a talent will allow the player to unlock the next talent for that particular skill path.
Quick Cast[]
Quick Cast is a fast acting ability which allows the player to activate a talent on the hot bar when scrolled over. When Quick Cast is turned off, talents in the hot back will need to be clicked before being active. Quick Cast's toggle is found in /talents at the bottom right of the screen as a redstone block.
