How to play guide for Default Loadout

Basic gameplay
Spellwake is an ARPG. The main concept is “anything goes”. Many builds should be viable. There should be lots of options and each of them should make the player feel like it made a difference. Another goal is replayability. You’re supposed to make a new character often to try new builds and play styles. The core mechanic is the skill system. There are three types of skills: Active, Semi-Active and Passive. Active skills are activated manually by the player. Passive skills have continuous, automatic effects. A character can have any number of passive skills. Semi-Active skills also have a continuous, automatic effects but only one semi-active skill can be selected at a time.

Tips and tricks
Use WASD to move around.

Press C to open the character sheet and select a skill.

Press I to open the inventory.

The level cap is 100. Max skill level is 20.

If you can't activate a skill, you probably don't have enough mana. Spend 20 to 30 points in intelligence so you can afford the skill's mana cost.

You can buy items from Mr Martino.

Press P to teleport back to town if you are not in combat.

CTRL + click a player to trade with them.

Hold SHIFT to compare an item you are looking at to your currently equipped item.

You can unleash any area and make it a level 100 area by killing the boss in that area. You need a summoning orb. Only level 100 monsters drop summoning orbs.

You can buy a random unique item from Mr Martino for one million gold.

You can re-roll rare weapons, armors and shields at Mr Martino for a gold cost until you are happy with your item.

You can unbind a skill by binding it to Esc.

There are no specific monsters or areas that drop specific items. Any level 100 monster can drop anything. Bosses just drop more items.

Most mechanics in the game are defined and explained in this manual.
