* BraggingRightsReward: The Dawnwalker Oath is the most powerful Oath in the game, with the only requirements that you need 30 Kyrsan Medallions to access it and 60 more to get the rest of the Mantras and Talents. However, the only reliable ways to get them is to go down to New Kyrsa and defeat the boss and escape without dying, meaning by the time you get out assuming you have the required amount of Kyrsan Medallions, you've pretty much cleared the entire game as of March 01, 2023, and the only reason to progress this Oath is to use it in Chime of Conflict or PVP.

** The Lord Regent will instantly kill anyone who trespasses into his throne room without an invitation. Because of this, savvy players would set up their Teleport resonance right at the throne room, then teleport any unlucky schmuck at it to the throne room, and if they weren't invited, they get instantly killed, which resulted in the developers later forbidding it from being used at the throne room.
** Another one was involved with Duke Erisia. While normally you're supposed to fight him within his boss room, players can also teleport him outside the boss room. Not only that was made forbidden as well, but Duke Erisia's Manor was later made into an instanced dungeon, meaning that it's now impossible to teleport to his area.
* OneStatToRuleThemAll: While anything goes in PVP, in PVE, Heavy Weapons is by far the best stat. This is because Heavy Weapons have massive DPS output which is incredibly useful for dealing with monsters, since almost all of the fights involving them devolve into attacking before they kill you.

** Medium Weapons are a good balance between the Light Weapons' attack speed and Heavy Weapons' damage output, making them very versatile. Notably, the Sword is often regarded as one of the best weapons for new players, and for a while it was [[https://twitter.com/Deepwoken/status/1582458181846175744?t=NBDz8H93hGsZ5oROxrEItQ&s=19 considered to have a good chance of winning other players in Chime of Conflict]].
** {{Fishing|Minigame}}. While it may take a while to get a good catch, it consistently rewards loot of variable value with almost no cost and raises every stat as well, making it a good hobby if you're not too interested in killing other players or enemies. Even better, it has a rare chance of incredibly rare weapons such as the Hero Blades.

* InfinityMinusOneSword: Weapons that cause Bleed are heavily favored in PVE, thanks to certain mechanics that cause then to deal practically 30% more damage. Even better, unlike the rarer weapons, they can be found as early as Lower Erisia, though some grinding will be needed to get them.

* ElementalPowers: There are 5 attunements in the game so far:
** [[KillItWithFire Flamecharm]]: Can use fire-based abilities that enable its user to do various trades, most notably the ability to execute downed players by igniting them with fire.
** [[AnIcePerson Frostdraw]]: Can use ice-based abilities focusing on mobility, area denial and massive damage.
** [[ShockAndAwe Thundercall]]: Has thunder-based abilities that require some creativity to make the full use of it and to compensate for its high Ether cost.
** [[BlowYouAway Galebreathe]]: Has wind-based abilities focusing on agility, range and zoning, while also putting pressure on opponents through combos.
** [[CastingAShadow Shadowcast]]: Can drain Ether from enemies at the expense of (usually) damage output. The only attunement that has to be unlocked in order to be chosen as a starting attunement for multiple playthroughs.

The world is sinking to the Depths. However, in spite of this, many pathfinders seek their destiny across the flooding world, hampered by various factions across the continent. However, many mysteries within the world and the Depths surface every now and then, waiting to be discovered by many for their story to be told.
----
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: You automatically regain a life in the overworld when your Power increases, unlike Monad Studios' previous game ''Rogue Lineage''.
* ArmorIsUseless: [[DownplayedTrope Not exactly]]. There exists various armors in the game, with Master Armors being considered the best of them all. This is played straight on a character slot that has the Crestfallen echo modifier active, as armor is permanently broken, making them only useful for their talents alone and nothing else.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Hivelord's Hubris. It's the most damaging weapon in the game par Crazy Slots weapons, but the swing speed is ''abysmally slow'', meaning that hitting enemies with it tends to be harder than it sounds. Lampshaded by the item description saying "...This isnt' very efficient." The only saving grace is that non-Crazy Slots users with a Providence Thorns-enchanted weapon is capable of insane damage thanks to parrying not being affected by the swing speed, making it useful against multi-hit attacks and Primadon.
* BadLuckMitigationMechanic: Aces are able to Freeze valuable Talent Cards if your build relies on certain cards that are useful but have two on them in the same hand, increasing the chance that card will appear in a later hand, and also Burning unnecessary Talent Cards ensuring that they will never appear in any hand again unless you brought them back through the Shrine of Conceit.
* BodyArmorAsHitPoints: Your armor's durability is displayed below your health bar. If it reaches 0, then only its stat boosts and associated Talent will be active.
* BrutalBonusLevel: The Trial of One. As stated in the name, you have to be at Power 1 or have the Lone Warrior Origin to even access it, and the first is tests if you have mastered parrying with a barrage of orbs coming straight to you. Did you pass the first part? Then you're dealt with a series of monsters to overcome, with one of them being a DualBoss fight. Completing it grants you a lot of free investment points to increase your stats and Power.
* CallAHitPointASmeerp: Levels are often referred to as in the game as Power.
* ChestMonster: After the Verse 2 update, various monsters from the Depths have a chance to appear in the Eastern Luminant.
* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Much like ''Rogue Lineage'', resetting doesn't kill your character, it merely respawns you at your boat, Guild Base or the inn you stayed at. This is important when you get stuck in a place.
* DumpStat: Defied. All of the stats are relevant to obtaining certain valuable Talent Cards, and even Charisma, which is usually considered the weakest, has some useful Talent Cards obtained with some low Charisma costs.
* HellIsThatNoise: One way to know if you're being hunted down by a Voidwalker player who has chosen the Ferocity option is that you hear a very unique noise. If that the case, either be ready to fight back or log before they combat tag you.
* {{Macrogame}}: Upon wiping a character, you will get Echoes, which can be used to buy upgrades that make progression easier and transfer Enchants and Legendary weapons to your next character by passing it down the Hippocampal Pool.
* {{Nerf}}: The [[ElementalWeapon Hero Blades]] and Light's Final Toll used to have Enchants. Because of how insanely overpowered they were, they were reclassified as Legendary Weapons, meaning that they cannot receive any type of Enchant no matter what.
* NintendoHard: While easier compared to ''Rogue Lineage'', make no mistake- it still retains the brutal difficulty curve, and wiping is still a present threat throughout the game.
* ObviousRulePatch:
** The Curse of the No-Life King enchant was incredibly powerful on release, due to its ability to passively regenerate HP when equipped at the cost of sanity and stained your health bar (which means you get sent to the Depths if you die). Because the sanity decrease downside could be mitigated very easily, not to mention that experienced player can never die if they're playing very good, it was later nerfed to not work with Viscosity, made its user have additional vulnerability to blood loss, received a Chime of Conflict-specific nerf, and made it so that {{Anti|Regeneration}}-Heal also works on it.
** For a while, dying with a Light Hook in the Eternal Gale/New Kyrsa allowed you to keep your loot while also being sent back to Scyphozia. Unsurprisingly, this was patched out afterwards, meaning that dying with a Light Hook now voids whatever loot you gained in the Second Layer.
** To prevent Ganymede players from getting free deals with the Shrine of Conceit, its passive Knowledge discount doesn't work with it, meaning that it will always cost 1 Knowledge to receive a deal from it. This is usually minor, as it brings back a Talent Card you burned.
* SanityMeter: For every tier of insanity, your screen is surrounded by a blue border. If it reaches the max level, the player would then scratch their eyeballs, dealing a generous amount of damage in the Depths, or have their head explode in the overworld.
