GreedFall progression combines attributes that affect equipment eligibility and combat, talents that support exploration or crafting, and skill-tree abilities. Technical skills include firearms, weapon preparations, traps, and thrown alchemical attacks, with several upgrades depending on earlier skills. Attribute and talent points arrive less often than skill points according to the guide, so consider equipment requirements and the play style you want to support when choosing among them.
Choose a topic to see how it works, where it helps and what to consider.
Accuracy supports a technical combat approach by allowing access to better firearms and increasing firearm damage and armor damage. The guide also says the attribute applies to thrown concoctions and other alchemical items. It can therefore support firearms and throwables together.
Understand this choiceAgility increases physical melee damage and Fury generation. The guide associates it with equipping one-handed and two-handed swords, and says its damage benefit applies across melee weapons, including blunt weapons. Fury is used for powerful special attacks.
Understand this choiceStrength improves damage with one-handed and two-handed blunt or heavy weapons such as axes and clubs. It also increases stun and armor damage with those weapons. The guide notes that armor damage can help against heavily armored enemies.
Understand this choiceMental Power allows access to more powerful rings and increases spell power, magical damage, and Fury generation for ring special attacks. Rings provide ranged basic and heavy attacks. The guide notes that some spells, including Stasis, do not require a ring.
Understand this choiceEndurance increases maximum health and balance, which helps prevent knockback or stun, and allows heavier armor. The guide presents it as a way to support a more durable character, particularly when enemies crowd you and dodging room is limited.
Understand this choiceWillpower increases maximum mana and spell duration, and allows access to better amulets and necklaces with different effects. It supports spell use over time and access to accessory equipment tiers.
Understand this choiceFirearms unlocks the use of pistols and costs two skill points in the listed tree. Later branch skills improve firearm damage, armor damage, and balance loss. This is the entry skill for the firearm upgrades shown in the Technical tree.
Understand this choiceRifle unlocks rifles instead of pistols. It requires Impact Bullets, so it comes after the firearm branch's damage and balance-loss improvements. The listed cost is one skill point.
Understand this choiceCraftsmanship supports crafting weapon and armor upgrades. The guide says higher levels allow recycling equipment without a crafting table, and completing its node enables master weapon and armor upgrades. It can serve a combat build by improving equipment through crafting.
Understand this choiceScience enables brewing potions and making explosive throwables, making it directly relevant to a Technical approach. The guide says some quest items can instead be bought, and points to bullet crafting among the higher-node benefits, so its value depends on which of these uses you want.
Understand this choiceLockpicking opens simple locks on some doors and chests, which can provide access to equipment and other loot. The guide also says it reveals enemy traps; higher levels let you cross traps without triggering them and pick them up for your own use.
Understand this choiceIntuition makes gathering sites easier to see by extending their visibility and increases the number of ingredients and objects obtained through gathering. This supports exploration and collecting materials, including ingredients useful for crafting.
Understand this choiceA focused reference to named attributes, talents, and Technical skill-tree choices in GreedFall. This does not cover a complete equipment catalog or every skill branch.
Explanations prepared with GPT-6 Luna and checked against the linked references. These are source-reviewed guides. They do not establish independently tested optimal builds or exact upgrade budgets. How coverage works.
