I am playing with a low level wizard character. I was reading about the wizard traits and found that it use a lot of chi But I have not seen any reference to it in my character sheet. Is spiritual cultivation the same or a related topic? Where can I find more information about it?

    So chi is like a expecial stat that level up based on character level or it is a consumable item or it is a renovable resource like the HP or mana?

    Everything you do, unless it says it consumes chi, generates chi. When you have chi, you can use certain skills. It works like this. Say skill A gives you 8 chi, but skill B needs 20 chi to use. You use skill A 3 times to get you 24 chi, use skill B, and still have 4 chi left over.

    Chi is like charging battery. Almost every spell what you use give you some amount of chi. High damage skills as a ultimate skill need lot of chi to cast. So in higher level you will get more and more chi called spark. When you charged this spark, you can use ultimate spells for example. Ultimates are spells from lvl. 59.
    Now you have just basic chi "meter". This yellow bar below mana bar. This bar is filled up with every spell you will use to charge chi till amount of chi reach 100. Then you have full chi bar. In higher levels you get chi called spark. This spark is charged when your chi bar reach amount of 100 and it start gain chi from beginning. But your spark will be fully charged. You don't have spark yet, so your chi bar can reach just amount of 100. Cannot go higher, because you don't have spark. b:pleased

    I think all classes use chi, but chi is most important for mages then for casting classes and least important for melee classes. But I never play another class just wizard, so I'm not sure how important is it for other classes.

    chi is most important for barbs... their primary aggro skill uses a very large chunk of the chi bar on each use

    thats not true to tank barbs consume loads of chi
    its impossible to always do the right thing we all make mistakes i am not different from that
    just try to be a good person

    english isn't my native language so there might be a few spelling/grammatical errors in my posts

    Chi is important :3
    Clerics cant purify or use plume shell without chi.
    Basically every class needs chi ^_^

    Always useful to have it.

    Chi is super important for Assassins too. That's how we spark burst (3X damage), power dash (+25% critical) and run fast.
