Toks Specs – CADRIFT

A speed spec for each class.

Choosing your spec

The specs outlined below are speed specs for each class that are capable of doing the Dungeon Run Challenge daily in Toks Dungeon and the Goboro Reef maze in less than 15 mins.
These specs may not be the absolute best in slot speed specs, but they do work!

Notes about Toks

When you first start in Toks Dungeon you wont ‘need’ a running spec, most of the content can be done at normal speed, however, it will certainly make your life easier when you reach the more difficult timed puzzles.

You need to be careful using flash forward abilities in some areas of Toks, for instance; in the Pacman Puzzle, flashing forward over the pellets will not pick them up; in the dungeon run challenge, flashing forward over a checkpoint will not register the checkpoint; using flash forward during the pyramid puzzle is a brave move!

Pretty much all of Toks is complete-able with just a few passive speed buffs and some insoles. The only areas that you would have trouble with is the dungeon run daily, the pacman puzzle and the math maze. This is when you may want to really fine tune your spec to get the most running speed out of it.

Speed buff consumables

There are a few buffs/consumables you can use to help..

Mirror Speed Buffs

In your abilities menu [P] in your ascended powers under buffs are Lasher’s Bane Mirror and Charged Mirror, assuming you have spent PA points in your air and dust tree.

These can be used to increase your speed for 2 mins at a time although they do share a cooldown.

You can also farm for Atmospheric Mirrors, which drop from air rifts in POA zones. These will give you the biggest speed increase, but still only last for 2 mins and share a cooldown with the PA buffs.

Although these items share a cooldown, they all have different cooldown times, so you wont have to wait a full 15mins between each one.

Insoles

For a longer running boost, you can have insoles crafted by an Outfitter.
The lower level insoles made with nightmare tide mats are 3% better, you just need to find some lower level boots to put on while you are in Toks.

Speed Specs for Each Class

Warning: These are NOT DPS specs!
These specs are designed to get you moving as quickly as possible, not for open world survival.
You will have a small DPS ability that is used to kill rats in TOKS.
Most of these specs will not use all the soul points, may not bother spending masteries and will not bother with some legendary points, if it doesnt make you go faster then there is no point adding it!

Rogue Speed Spec

As a Rogue you have many speed buffs and a ‘save point’ ability too.

This is super useful for saving you if you fall from height!), Shadow Mastery (Reduces cooldowns of planeshifting) and Hasted Time (Increases movement speed by 50% for 4secs after each planeshift).
