Before anyone gets confused like I did, once you unlock all the shown upgrades another icon will show up in the centre of the talent tree, this is the final upgrade.

so, assuming you've gotten all the skills, there is another skill at the center of all 5 skilltrees?
what is the desc of that skill and can we get a pic?

I'm on mobile atm so I can't post a pic but the basic info about it is. It costs 2 Quartz and 500sp which means that 100%ing every level is a prerequisite. What it does is allow amber to slowly regen, although I haven't actually tested the speed of the skill yet so I don't know how good it is.

Not necessary to 100% everything. You just need all the other Quartz abilities unlocked, so there's a fair amount of leeway, you can leave half of each tree unfinished. I got it as soon as I finished my initial playthrough, which was Shadow + Thief + Mercy minus one or two levels earlier on where I'd killed everyone.

As to how good Flow Control is - it's absurdly good. Being able to use up amber without worrying about supplies is great. You can throw away clones without concern (with upgraded rebirth they turn into free healing potions). You can pop off an upgraded invisibility for a few seconds to sprint through an open area before it starts to degen and it'll regen itself super fast, or use a full invisibility bar to get a lot done and it's still back up full in good time. Made Swiftness a piece of cake.

Basically, it turns Invisibility from a niche tool that you use cautiously (due to amber costs) into a general purpose tool you can use frequently.

Am on my second playthrough and have used all my quartz apart from one.Have done 5 missions getting the quartz but when i get back to the hideout i only have the one quartz that i started with.The question is,where can i get quartz so i can get Flow Control.Any help would be appreciated.

After the first boss fight every other mission has a side quest for quartz, just check the mission logs for every level and look at the side missions to figure out which one you're missing.

Thanks for that Myst Lunarbane,will carry on and hope for a Quartz find.

When I got to the big open area where you see the stairs leading down (the one that has the trolls patrolling it) I used a coccoon toss to get to the next platform in that area instead of passing through the big chamber with all the dark elves. This probably saved a minute or two and did the trick.
