Most pathways have one or two divine abilities that work together and enhance the final output of an attack. Take nobles, for example; they have the rank 3 Setting Rules divine ability, the rank 4 Land Sovereign divine ability, and the rank 7 Domain divine ability that can combine.
They can weaken an enemy by using other divine abilities such as the rank 2 Noble Suppression divine ability and the rank 8 Heritage divine ability.
They can also enhance their own power with the rank 1 Noble Blood divine ability, rank 5 Noble Title, and rank 6 Ancestral Power divine ability. But the maximum number of divine abilities that they can make work together to achieve a single thing is always three.
But killers are not like that. All the divine abilities of killers from rank 1 to rank 9 are geared towards one single thing and can work together to create a single move that can achieve that singular purpose.
