The majority of The Tomes of Knowledge are built into a natural progression of the game, so you won't find yourself grinding 10,000 zombie kills to earn a tome or something like that. Our intention was not to create a grind fest, but simply add an extra layer of depth by progressing through the game.
Feel free to share your thoughts about the new skill system. We are open to hearing what skills you like or do not like, what you think can be improved, etc. Nothing is set in stone in Early Access, so feel free to voice your opinion. We listen to everything.
As the game is not yet complete only half of the tomes are currently available to collect. More will be added when we reach versions 0.7 and 0.9 in the dev cycle. The idea is, though, that there will be 60 total skills, but only 30 points, when the game is finished. You can swap these around however you like if you want a different build or character to buff a specific way. But you will never be able to complete the entire tree, like you can with the individual character talent trees.
If you already have Save Data, some of the Tomes will be granted to you automatically as we can apply the updates through the data. Not all Tomes can be granted as we did not track everything the Tomes requires prior to this update.
