Editing Trait

{{stub|page|Incomplete information. Could use some verbosity.}}
[[File:Trait_Cards.png|left]]'''Traits''' are passive effects that affect various stats of a character. To affect the character, trait points must be allocated, and the intensity of the effect depends on the number of points assigned to the trait up to level 10. The increased effect of each trait level depends on the individual trait.

The player can only allocate a certain number of trait points and cannot max every trait they have unlocked. As of ''[[The Awakened King]]'' DLC patch, the Trait Point Cap is 85 points. The player also receives their [[Archetype]] traits and a few points in select traits depending on their build for "free." These points do not apply towards the 85 point maximum, and also cannot be removed.

==Trait Points==

===Gaining Trait Points===
Travelers gain trait points by defeating unique minibosses (i.e. ones they haven't killed before), aberrations and World Bosses, and discovering [[Tome of Knowledge|Tomes of Knowledge]] that can appear across the worlds during their travels. On kill, the points will be automatically given to the Traveler.

In multiplayer, when one player picks up a Tome of Knowledge, everyone in the party will receive it as well.

When the Traveler reaches the cap, excess Trait Points from then on are converted to {{Icon|Scrap|Scrap}} (The actual amount is randomized).

===Allocating Trait Points===
{{Section stub|Incomplete information.}}
To activate a trait and have it affect the Traveler, players must first allocate trait points through the Traits menu to the desired trait.

Players can allocate more than one point at a time to enhance the effect of a trait. The exact increase per level varies per trait and is specified in the tooltip. Trait points can be removed until the player is prompted to confirm their selections. 

===Respecing===
Travelers may purchase the [[Orb of Undoing]] from Wallace in [[Ward 13]] and can then use it to refund all allocated trait points at no cost, save for the initial cost of buying the Orb itself. This action may be done at any time as long as they have the Orb, which will not be consumed upon use and can be used indefinitely. The Orb is also required to switch between different trait builds when changing Loadouts.

==Obtaining Traits==

===World Event Traits===
{{Section stub|Incomplete information.}} <!--TODO: LINK TO [[Events]]-->
There are Campaign- and World-specific traits that are unlocked by completing certain events and maps. These events are mostly encountered randomly, and may not even be present for the current run.

===[[Archetype|Archetype-specific]] Traits===
{{Section stub|Incomplete information.}}
Archetypes have unique traits that are specific to them, and will only be active if the associated Archetype is currently equipped. This means that, for example, should the Traveler swap the [[Handler]] archetype out for [[Challenger]], they will lose [[Kinship]], the Handler's trait, but will gain [[Strong Back]], the Challenger's trait. Additionally, these traits will allocate themselves based on the level of their associated archetype.

Once the Traveler reaches level 10 of an archetype, that archetype’s unique trait can be used in any build, as long as there are enough available points to allocate into the trait.
