SP plays a very important role inChained Echoes, as it is used to improve the skills of the game’s various characters. While fans will get some information about SP in the early hours of the game, some players may be slightly confused about how it works. This guide is here to alleviate that confusion by providing full details on SP inChained Echoes.

Chained Echoes: How SP Works

Upon completing a battle inChained Echoes, players will earn some amount of SP, and it will be added to each character’s SP pool as well as to all the skills that they have equipped. As an example, if anold-school JRPGfan has Victor with Poetic March equipped, and they earn 10 SP in battle, then 10 SP will be added to Victor’s SP pool and the cost to upgrade his Poetic March skill will be reduced by 10. Players can view their characters' SP pools and skills in the Set Skills menu, which plays an important role in spending SP.

Chained Echoes: How to Spend SP

In order to use a character’s SP pool to upgrade their skills,indie video gamefans should simply open the Set Skills menu, select the skill to be improved, and press the input that appears next to “Level Up” in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Notably, a character must have enough SP in their pool to take the skill to its next level before any SP can be spent on it. For full clarity, this means that if a character were to have just 10 SP in their pool, the player could not spend their SP on any skills that require 11 or more to upgrade.

Chained Echoes: SP Farming

While players should have little trouble upgrading their skills through standard gameplay, it is possible to farm a large quantity of SP very quickly. In fact, fans ofJRPGs with turn-based combatcan do this quite early in the game by reaching a teleport crystal in the southwest corner of Rohlan Fields. Here is a route to that crystal:

Upon reaching this crystal,pixel artfans should repeatedly slay the Pigears that are above it, teleporting to the crystal after each battle to reset the enemies. Indeed, these Pigears can be farmed for fast SP, and here are a couple tips to maximize SP gains:
