Mastery is a game mode designed to challenge players by imposing certain restrictions. Each [[Maps|Map]] has a specific set of 5 challenges to complete. Mastery mode also restricts your gear, stats, and Ascension according to the Chaos tier you are playing. Any [[Mods]] you have on your gear will be set to the Chaos tier of the [[Maps|Map]] you are playing, even if those [[Mods]] were originally a lower tier.
  
Mastery is 1 of the 6 game modes in Dungeon Defenders 2.  It functions similarly to Expeditions however each map has specific sets of challenges to complete.  Gear Score is also capped based on the Chaos level of the map you choose.
