What Changes at Level 10

When a Cleric reaches level 10 and you select Inquisitor, three things change permanently:

  1. Stat bonuses are added to the hero's ability scores immediately and permanently.
  2. Active ability is replaced with the subclass variant (Smite).
  3. Passive effect is unlocked and becomes active in all future runs.

Ability: Smite

Smite: Smites an enemy for magic damage while simultaneously healing the lowest-HP ally. AP scales both effects.

Permanent Stat Bonuses

Inquisitor grants the following ability score bonuses on top of the Cleric base scores:

These bonuses stack with ability score points allocated from levelling. They cannot be removed without retiring the hero.

Passive Effect

Each attack heals the lowest-HP ally for 50% of damage dealt.

This passive is always active during combat — no gear or skill tree investment required to trigger it.

Recommended Skill Tree Themes

Magic (Pure Caster keystone, AP for Smite scaling), Offense (STR for auto-attack ATK).
