In Dynasty Warriors: Origins, Skill Points are crucial for enhancing your combat effectiveness and unlocking new skills across various skill trees, tailored to your current rank. Whether you're just starting out or climbing the ranks, these points allow you to access powerful new Battle Arts and combat perks, significantly boosting your prowess on the battlefield.
As you progress, you'll find that individual skills can become costly, especially early in the game. To ensure you're well-prepared for the challenges ahead, regardless of the difficulty you choose, it's essential to engage with the game's side content. Here's how you can efficiently farm Skill Points beyond the main battles.
To quickly amass Skill Points, focus on defeating enemies in battle. You'll earn three Skill Points for every 100 enemies defeated. While main battles see you clashing with many foes, they're not ideal for grinding due to specific loss conditions that require you to prioritize officers to secure victory. Instead, turn your attention to the overworld and participate in Skirmishes.
In these Skirmishes, ignore the enemy officers and concentrate on slicing through the endless waves of enemies. You'll continue to earn three Skill Points for every 100 kills without worrying about loss conditions. The Skirmish will persist until you defeat the required officers, but by avoiding them, you can rack up those 100 kills roughly every minute, depending on enemy spawn rates.
Continue battling in the same Skirmish until your health is critically low, then strategically take down the final officer to claim victory. You'll also earn a few bonus Skill Points for winning, making it possible to gather around 50 Skill Points in just a few minutes. To maximize this method, consider the following tips:
Beyond Skirmishes, completing Training objectives is another excellent way to earn Skill Points. As you advance through the main story and encounter new characters, engage with them in the overworld. They often assign Training objectives that are straightforward and can be completed effortlessly while playing the game. These objectives can be fulfilled at any time during any battle, providing you with additional Skill Points. Make sure to interact with these characters whenever you encounter them to take advantage of these opportunities.
