Skills

Skills are unique features that grant Raiders passive improvements or new abilities. They are purchased at the Skill Tree using a special currency called Skill Points.

Obtaining

Raiders are rewarded one Skill Point each time they gain enough experience to level up, for a total of 76. Additionally, up to five Skill Points can be earned for each completed Expedition.

Skill Tree

The Skill Tree is split into three "branches" that focus on different specializations: Conditioning, Mobility, and Survival. There is no restriction on spending Skill Points between branches, but many Skills only become available after a prerequisite number of Skill Points are spent in a specific branch.

Sometimes mistakes are made, or it is time to change things up. Raiders can spend 2,000 Coins per Skill Point to reset their entire Skill Tree. Currently, there is no option to reset individual branches or Skills.
