Divinity Slate Guide

Last Updated:July 3, 2024|Change Log

Divinity Slates in Torchlight Infinite are used to create a custom Talent tree built on the powers of the New God. This is accessed via your Talent menu. At low levels you're only able to access the central area, but as you level up more space for Slates becomes available. This is unlocked by defeating the Timemark 3 Blistering Lava Watcher.

Your Slates offer Minor, Medium, and Major talents from any of the 6 Gods, plus special New God talents. Better yet, you can mix and match different Gods, or even stack multiple copies of the same Talent (though certain effects are marked as Max 1 and cannot be repeated). Slates represent puzzle pieces, or Tetris pieces, so you need to fit them together and use the entire space efficiently.

This system gives hunters a lot freedom when it comes to character building in Torchlight Infinite. The Statue of the New God represents a lot of your power, so don't neglect Divinity Slates as you level up and progress through the challenges Leptis has to offer. You finish unlocking Slate space at Character Level 95.

If you want to know more about Talents in Torchlight Infinite check out our Guide here, or read this one for information on the Six Gods and their buffs.

Divinity Slate Basics

Divinity Slates drop throughout Leptis, but you can target farm them by interacting with the Cube of Rapacity. Non-Legendary Divinity Slates are themed around one of the Six Gods. For example, the God of Machines' Divinity Slate rolls modifiers from the God of Machines, Machinist, Steel Vanguard and Alchemist Talent Trees.

Divinity Slates have 1 or 2 "Fixed" Talents. These are randomly rolled when the Slate drops and cannot be modified. You can however, add up to 3 Talents via Branding. These Talents have a fixed potential rarity that determines which type of talent node you can roll on the item. Some talents are marked with (Max Divinity Effect: 1), meaning you can only gain that effect once via the Statue of the New God, but anything else can be freely stacked.

Because you can combine slates from any God, Divinity Slates are especially helpful for gaining access to Talents outside of the 3 trees you're using. Many builds choose to use Pedigree of Gods (dropped by Traveler) to obtain a Major Talent.

Warning: Major Talents don't stack! Make sure the Major Talent(s) granted by your Pedigree of Gods are different from the ones you've already selected in your Talent Trees.

Divinity Slate Adjustment

If you're having trouble fitting a valuable Divinity Slate into your Statue, you can adjust the shape or rotation.

  • SpendTranscendence Wedge (Magic) to perform a random 90 degree rotation.
  • Alternatively, use Transcendence Wedge (Rare) to randomize its Shape.

Unwanted Divinity Slates

Divinity Slates can be sold to other players via the Trade House, or recycled for Divinity Fragments. This currency is used to purchase new random Divinity Slates at the Heart of Rapacity in town, this is a handy way to get value from Slates you don't need! Keep an eye out for Slates with 12 Branding Attempts, as these are the easiest to craft on and therefore the most coveted.

Divinity Slate Shapes

Here are the Shapes you can randomize your Divinity Slates into, fit them together carefully to complete your Statue of the New God! Remember you can change the shape, but it's more cost efficient to use a Divinity Slate with the correct shape and randomize the rotation.

Branding System

To enhance your Divinity Slates with extra modifiers you need to Brand them with Transendence Wedges. There are 4 different types of Wedges for each corresponding tier of modifier;

  • Transcendence Wedge (Magic)
  • Transcendence Wedge (Rare)
  • Transcendence Wedge (Legendary)
  • Transcendence Wedge (New God)
The pre-determined branded talent nodes include Magic, Rare, Legendary.

Branding Your Slates

You must add modifiers to each slot based on the rarity shown. For Magic nodes;

  • Use a single Transcendence Wedge (Magic) to add a micro talent node to the Divinity Slate.
  • This can then be re-rolled to another desired micro talent using another Transcendence Wedge (Magic). You can do this indefinitely.

For Purple nodes; can contain micro talents, branded with the strategy shown above, or Medium Talent

  • Purple nodes can contain micro talents, branded with the strategy shown above, or medium Talents. Upgrade the micro talent to a medium talent using a Transcendence Wedge (Rare).
  • This can then be re-rolled to another desired medium talent using 50 Transcendence Wedge (Rare). You can do this indefinitely.

Legendary and New God Talents

Choose between Legendary or New God Transcendence Wedges

For Divinity slates with a Legendary Branded Talent slot you can either add a Legendary Talent Node or a New God Talent node.

You must add modifiers in the same method as shown above before reaching the Legendary crafting stage. At this point you can choose to add a single Legendary or New God modifier.

Warning: Legendary and New God Talents cannot be rerolled, you must use a Unifying Wedge to restore the Divinity Slate and begin your crafting again.

When adding Legendary Talent nodes you can also use a branding slate material to guarantee that the affix is from a specific Talent Tree. This vastly reduces the randomness of the affixes and results in less restore attempts.

Legendary Slates

The Legendary Divinity Slate most players will first encounter is Pedigree of Gods, dropped by the Traveler. In addition to rolling Minor and Medium Talents, it also has 1-2 Major Talents from anywhere in the tree. A well rolled Pedigree of the Gods is difficult to obtain but extremely valuable.

The Minor and Medium talents rolled can come from any of the Six Gods, and do not have any correlation to the Major Talent(s) selected. This item drops from both the Timemark 7 and Timemark 8 versions of the fight. There is a small chance for Pedigree of Gods to roll 2 Major Talents instead of just 1.

For more information on how to fight the Traveler check out our Traveler and Uber Traveler Boss Guides.

Think of this as an additional Major Talent

Legendary Slate Effects

Many Legendary Slates interact with adjacent Divinity Slates, increasing the effect of Talents, Copying other Talents or Devouring Talents.

Talent Effect
Copy
Devour

God's Footsteps gains +15% Talent effect for every other copy of itself in the same row/column. For example, if you place 2 side by side, each grants 21% additional Order Decrease speed as opposed to the normal 18. This effect compounds based on the number of identical slates used, so you need to use several God's Footsteps at once, or none at all.

Another example of this is the Last God's Tears, which enhances the effect of adjacent New God Talents. You can use up to 4 copies of this Slate, so position them carefully to maximize the effect!

Space Rift copies the Medium talents on the adjacent slate to the right, so if you have some important bonuses this is a great way to double the benefits to your character. Sparks of Moth Fire on the other copies the last talent on an Adjacent slate. Combine this with rare Medium Talents like +1 Minion Skill Level, or a New God Talent for maximum effect.

Note: you cannot copy a replicated Talent, only those that originally exist on a Slate.

Last God Has Gone Far Devours Six Gods' Talents on adjacent slates, nullifying their effects. While this is a major downside, these Legendaries offer a powerful upside to builds able to maintain high Order.

Another Devouring Divinity Slate is Last God's Revelation. This nullifies Medium Talents above, to give +30% Effect to the New God Talents below for each Medium Talent Devoured.
