Hi everyone,
Talent stones are rune carved stones which gives the owner the ability to perform some special moves during combat. They are mysterious artifacts and nobody knows who forged them or how to make new ones. But they are used by heroes for centuries.
Characters already have one talent stone at the beginning of the game, depending on your choice of background. So the Retired Gladiator has “Heavy Strike”, Hunter has “Eagle Eye”, Swashbuckler has “Whirlwind Attack”. Otherwise, talent stones can be bought from the adventurer’s guild or rarely be found on dead adventurers.
To use a talent stone, you equip it on the action bar. Once you use it, it cools down for 7 turns. Each stone consumes a certain amount of stamina. So you need to be strategic about it. When your stamina is lesser than 5 points you are fatigued and your movement is slowed.
Talent stones come in three levels, and you need to have certain attribute points before you can use them. For example stones about ranged attack need dexterity points, etc. Every character can buy every talent stone and use it. There are no class restrictions and so your bow expert hunter can be good at melee fighting too.
