When do you unlock masteries in Last Epoch?

You will unlock mastery in Last Epoch at the end of chapter 2 after defeating Elder Pannion and traveling to the End of Time. Once you do this, you will be able to receive the power of mastery quest from the Forgotten Knight. From here, ascend the floating spiral staircase to the second level and talk to Elder Gaspar. You will now get to choose your mastery.

There are some prerequisites to this. You need to have invested at least 20 passive points into your base class skill tree. If you have not completed this, you will need to return later once you have. Those who have already spent the 20 points will just need to wait until the campaign allows for the unlocking of mastery.
