How To Unlock Spell Passive Abilities In V Rising
Before you can gain access to Spell Passives in V Rising, you need to unlock the Altar of Stygian Awakening (requires: 1x Regular Ruby, 12x Iron Ingots, 4x Greater Blood Essence). Once this structure is crafted, you will need to find Stygian Shards, which you can obtain from Rift Incursion events.
