Skill Crests

Skill Crests are their own Equipment slot, one for each of the 4 main skill trees, equipping even the most basic version of these will add +8 to each skill in the associated skill tree.

The 4 basic crest are:

• Crest of Class
• Crest of Preservation
• Crest of Affliction
• Crest of Ferocity

Each has its own quest-line that adds Stats to them as you progress through the quest:

• Crest of Class (Q)
• Crest of Preservation (Q)
• Crest of Affliction (Q)
• Crest of Ferocity (Q)

It is best practice to accept all four crest quests at the same time and work on them together as they all require the same first steps. This will save you days worth of rage.
