Hero skill point

Hero skill points are used to buy skills from hero skill trainers. Each skill costs one hero skill point. Buying the skill will unlock the skill for your account and teach it to your character. To see how many hero skill points you have, talk to a hero skill trainer.

Acquiring hero skill points
A character acquires hero skill points in the following ways:
 * Paying a hero skill trainer 1000 gold and 1 normal skill point. (Note: this is equivalent to buying a skill from any other skill trainer.)
 * Gaining Sunspear ranks
 * One hero skill point is awarded for each of the first two ranks
 * Two hero skill points are awarded for each rank thereafter
 * Gaining Lightbringer ranks
 * One hero skill point is awarded for the first rank
 * Two hero skill points are awarded for each rank thereafter
 * Gaining ranks in the Eye of the North species title tracks (Norn, Asura, Ebon Vanguard, and Deldrimor).
