Take the introduction at home, then open Journey from your quest tab.
- Choose your path
Combat requires 10 NPC kills. Gathering requires 25 successful Mining, Woodcutting or Fishing actions combined.
- Claim your Apprentice Core
Claim the one-time personal reward in Journey. This Core is a physical item, not a hidden currency.
- Forge and learn
Take the Core to the Obsidian Forge and make the apprentice tome for your chosen path. Read it to learn the perk; check Equipped Tomes to activate or swap it.
