Skill point

Skill points are used to buy skills from skill trainers. Each skill costs one skill point and a certain amount of money. The first skill purchased costs 50, and the price increases gradually up to a cap of 1 on the 20th skill.

The total number of unredeemed skill points is listed in the hero panel.

Acquiring skill points
A character acquires skill points in the following ways:
 * Receiving mission rewards by completing missions with Standard or Master rewards;
 * Completing quests which reward skill points;
 * Gaining character levels;
 * Gaining experience, after reaching the level cap;
 * Using a Star of Transference.

Number of skill points
Although 261 skill points can be earned from missions and quests, the maximum a single character can earn (from them) depends on their starting Campaign: Prophecies: 253 points, Factions: 252 points, and Nightfall: 244 points.


 * Missions
 * 25 in Prophecies (1 point awarded for each of 25 missions; the first eight missions only award skill points to Prophecies characters)
 * 39 in Factions (1 point awarded for each level of completion on each of 13 missions; the first two missions only award skill points to Factions characters)
 * 60 in Nightfall (1 point awarded for each level of completion on each of 20 missions)
 * 124 from repeating all missions in Hard Mode


 * Quests
 * 1 point in Pre-searing Prophecies from Tithe for Ashford Abbey (Prophecies characters only)
 * 12 points from Factions primary quests (the first two are only available to Factions characters)

You can also earn unlimited skill points through gaining experience.
 * Gaining Character Levels: 19 points = 1 point per Level through the level cap of 20;
 * Gaining XP: 1 point per 15,000 xp, after reaching level 20;
 * Using a Star of Transference allows you to Trade skill points with another player or character.
