Mining Classes
A mining class is a second, smaller tree on top of the Mining Tree. You unlock it with your first Ascension and open it with /miningtree ascendancy.
There are six classes: Kobaloi, Horologist, Telchine, Prospector, Reservoir and Overdrive.
Unlocking
The class pages do not exist before Ascension I. Until then /miningtree ascendancy opens the normal tree. Each class shows its own nodes and tooltips in game once you have ascended.
Ascension points
- Every Ascension gives 2 Ascension points, so you have 6 at Ascension III.
- Class nodes cost Ascension points. They never use your mining tree points.
- With none left the game says "You have no Ascension points. Each Ascension gives 2."
One class at a time
All your Ascension points go into one class. If you click a node in another class the game says "Your Ascension points are in <class>. Refund them to pick another class."
Switching class
Switching is free. Use Respec on the class page to refund only your class, then pick any other. A full Respec of the mining tree refunds your class too.
Each saved build keeps its own class, so you can hold a different class on each build.
Auto-spend never spends Ascension points, and changing preset keeps your class.
