Mage ability trees
The guide lists Spirit, Storm, Inferno, and Winter as Mage starting ability trees. It does not describe their individual abilities or mechanical effects.
How it works
Every character can choose from four starting ability trees depending on class. For Mage, the listed trees are Spirit, Storm, Inferno, and Winter. The guide says Mages use elemental attacks at range or spirit magic to protect allies, but does not map those broad functions to specific trees or state their abilities, conditions, upgrades, or restrictions.

Comparative effectiveness, optimality, completeness, and current patch status are not assessed. Guidance explains the referenced mechanics; it is not a tested damage ranking. Check the stated edition and source version before applying a patch-specific detail.
