What Are Class Resources?
Unique Mechanics for Skill Usage
Each class has a unique resource with its own mechanics. Class resources govern the usage of skills and abilities. Each class also has their own tools of generating resources, which is slightly indicative of their play style.
Resource Cap can be Increased by Gear and Passives
The maximum amount of class resources can be increased by wearing certain equipment and by investing in Skill Passives such as Tempered Fury for Barbarians, and the Sorcerer's Devastation.
