Ancestry

For our Scion, take the passives in this order:

• Two points towards Assassin
• Assassin and a point to Path of the Shadow
• Path of the Shadow and a point towards Raider
• Raider

It's less optimized for leveling because power orbs are less interesting than frenzy for this step, but you can quickly put points in the Assassin tree.

The choice of ancestry

Pantheon

Here are the gods to choose for the major soul:

• Soul of Solaris, resistance against bosses

For the minor soul:

• Soul of Gruthkul, less physical damage received

Bandits

Kill the bandits, the tree is quite greedy you will need the two passive points.
