What Skills to Take in Enshrouded?

Many skills are good regardless of your class or preferred playstyle. Some are worth taking. While some skills are universally valuable, mixing and matching different skill trees is a good strategy. Choose based on your preferences and playstyle. Consider expanding your skill tree after maximizing damage with your primary weapon and class.

Overpowered Wizard Skills Enshrouded
Example: Wizard Build most important Skills

Magical users like Wizards excel with potent area-based spells and passives. Consider adding Healer to your mix for the Blink ability, replacing the dodge roll. With an extra skill, you gain bonus damage when utilizing Blink. Also, the healing skill should be added over time. The Counterstrike from Trickster skill tree allows retaliation, dealing damage equal to what you received, with a 20% chance. Combine this with Radiant Aura for constant area damage within a 10-meter radius. This setup mixes a few blue skill trees and provides high mobility, passive damage, and exceptional offensive capabilities.

Best Group Skills Builds in Enshrouded

Each tree has an orb-spawning mechanic that can restore resources for the player or their team members. Extremely valuable if you play co-op:

  • Blue (Intelligence): Bloodletting
  • Red (Strength): Blood Warrior
  • Green (Dexterity): Swiftshot Sustenance

Players should coordinate these skills and more for both area-based passive boosts alongside healing.

Notably, you can shoot while airborne, introducing the tactic of “death from above,” although be cautious and avoid fall damage. The tree amplifies passive ranged damage without the need for specific arrows.

The Beastmaster skill tree centers around animals, particularly wolves (Vukah), creating a situational playstyle. To benefit from this tree, having animals around is a must. The resistance to poison is a notable advantage, and you can acquire those extra resistances regardless of your preferred skill tree. With this tree, you can extend the enshrouded timer by 2 minutes. Animals and wolves will not attack you, and you can redirect their hostility toward your enemies when in combat. The tree offers decent stamina passives but lacks active abilities. Unless you find yourself fatigued by constant animal attacks during exploration, it’s worth considering other skills that offer better passive bonuses.

Survival focuses on consumables, offering increased stamina regeneration—a beneficial addition to any class once you’ve established your preferred combat playstyle. Additionally, it grants an extra food slot, providing a significant advantage with additional buffs from food.

Tank

As a tank, you gain damage reduction skills like a 10% reduction with Earthen Aura. The tank role also benefits from the Battlemage skill line, spawning a mana or stamina orb after defeating an enemy with a critical attack. Combining this with Life Burst achieves the same effect, but it restores health instead of magic and is an area-based effect, as all players within 15 meters will be healed. This creates an all-in-one setup for the tank within two skill trees, passively boosting everyone in the party. Tank class is one of the most critical roles in any group and is a difficult playstyle as everyone’s survival depends on the skill trees you take and your character’s overall build in Enshrouded.
