How hero talents work

Hero talents were added in The War Within on top of the normal talent trees. Every hero tree combines the themes of two Specializations, so each specialization can pick between two hero trees.
You earn one hero point at every level from 71 to 80, so at level 80 the whole tree is unlocked. In Midnight, levels 81 to 90 hand out points that rotate between the specialization, class and hero trees.
