History — Attunements
The Crystal Gate is how your character spends its level-up stat points — an open, branching stat grid. Open it from Character → Crystal Gates.
How it works
Six stat lanes. The grid is made of six vertical lanes — Strength, Accuracy, Dexterity, Defence, Intelligence, Spirit — connected down and sideways into a mesh. Walk the path. Starting from the origin at the top, click a glowing node next to one you've already lit to activate it. You can move down a lane or step sideways into a neighbouring stat. Your route is your build. Each node grants a set stat, and you only earn 1 point per level — so you can't light everything. Where you walk decides your stats. Some nodes are richer. Most nodes grant +1, some +2, and a rare few +3. Hunting the better nodes along your route is worth it.
Traits & Paths
Your class Traits appear automatically as gold milestone markers down the left of the Gate (they're free — you don't spend points on them). At each Crossroads (the old Paths of Power choices) you'll see both options stacked, A above B, with their effects — click the one you want.
The Reset Crystal
A Reset Crystal resets your whole Gate — it refunds every stat node you've lit and clears your Path choices, letting you walk a brand-new build. Buy one from the Gate panel for 200,000 gold.
What the Gate does NOT change
Your auto-grown stats — the base stat growth you get from your race and class every level — are automatic and untouched. The Gate only governs the points you choose to spend.
Spending stat points
You earn 1 stat point per level. Points are spent in the Crystal Gates (Character → Crystal Gates) — the old + / Max buttons on the Attributes panel have been retired. Your unspent points are shown on the stat panel with a link straight to the Gate.
Traits & Paths of Power
Class Traits and the Paths of Power Crossroads are now shown and chosen inside the Crystal Gates. Traits light up automatically as milestone markers; at each Crossroads you pick between two options shown side by side. To change a Path choice, use a Reset Crystal (it also re-walks your stats).
Stat effect
Your race contributes to your stats every level, so changing race re-scales the racial portion of your stats by your character's level — a meaningful swing, not a flat tweak. The altar shows the exact projected change for each race before you commit. Cost is 2,500 gold × your highest level (minimum 50,000). Levels, gear and your Gate allocations are untouched.
