Fire Emblem Heroesthrows many stats and currencies at the player at once, which can confuse some newbies about what SP does. (All other stats seem to have a clear impact on a Hero’s performance except for this one.) The following guide explains what SP stands for, what it does for your crew, and how you can farm it using basic methods. You are guaranteed to double your SP gains with these methods, regardless of your team’s level.
Of course, you must progress through the main campaign a bit to unlock the SP-farm-friendly game mode (i.e., Chain Challenge). However, since this mode unlocks early in the game, even the most beginner players can use it to obtain extra Skill Points.
Skill Point (SP) Explained
Skill Points are a type of currency inFire Emblem Heroesthat allows your characters to acquire new abilities. Once you accumulate enough SP, you’re able to visit the “Learn Skills” sections under each Hero’s card to purchase these abilities. (You can laterchange the Skill arrangementunder the “Change Skills” tab in the same menu.)
SP is not shared among all characters. You must earneach Hero’s specific Skill Pointsto be able to buy their moves.
