Reason: New sources of weapon passive points with the removal of Cruel

Please update this article to reflect newly available information.

Weapon sets are two sets of different main hand and off hand slots that can be swapped between during gameplay. Players can also assign a certain amount of passive skill points to weapon sets individually.

Mechanics

Characters can equip two sets of weapons or off hands. Each of your skills can be assigned one or both specific weapon sets as long as they are compatible with the equipped items; if a skill is assigned to the opposite weapon set only, the weapon set is swapped automatically when using that skill.

Weapon set passive skill points

Players can assign passive skills for a specific weapon set by using Weapon Set Passive Skill Points to flexibly allocate different passive skills for different skills. Weapon set passives require an equivalent number of unallocated regular passive skill points to allocate. They do not inherently grant extra passive skill points. Instead, they convert a number of your passive skill points into weapon set passive skill points.
