Talents
As Aeona, your Talents shape your core playstyle and synergies while also influencing your overall throughput and resource flow.
As you unlock points throughout your journey, different nodes require different investment, which might make it seem complicated, but I’ve outlined what I believe to be the best general set-up you can have at every stage.

Aeona’s gameplay largely centers around her Chrona builders and spenders. Since Oblivion is your main spender and the center of your gameplay loop, we want to pick all Talents that enhance it, like Erasure and Oblivion's Embrace.
To get as many Oblivion (and also Amend Fate / Restore Continuity) out as possible, you need a good resource economy. That’s why we take Chrona Tap for mana, and Uchronia, Synchronicity, and Surging Chrona to generate Chrona steadily and when it matters.
Echoes Of Divinity is another big pickup because it makes your Stagger clears cleanse even more Stagger.
These priorities don’t leave you with much wiggle room. After taking all these core talents, you’re only left with 3 flex points.
Investing our Flex Points
Even though Paradoxical Twist is strong, Hastening Doom is usually better value and costs one point less. That leaves you with an extra point to tailor your build to the dungeon:
- If one-shots are the main threat, take Magic Ward or Spirited Fortitude
- Otherwise, take Vestige Of Truth
Niche Talents
Kind Rewind is usually not worth it because your gameplay loop barely gives you room to cast Time Shard and you generally want to cast it as little as possible. Consider it only if your playstyle or a specific setup has you casting Time Shard regularly.
Quickening is a solid spot-healing option, but typically unnecessary. Your spot healing is already strong, and the points tend to have higher value elsewhere.
