These skill points allow you tobuy new skills from the skill tree.
The last group is theimprovement of the equipment, which enhances our weapons and infuses them with additional properties.
In addition to improving items, take a stab at usearmor elements from matching sets.
This will guarantee even more bonuses to the statistics.
The first of them areraids, i.e.
attacks on locations marked on the world map.
