Although you’ve already got more than enough combat variation at your fingertips inSilent Hope, a delightful isometric hack and slash, your heroes have access to nine additional skills, too. These are their hero skills, and each one can unlock progressively stronger skills that aid them in battle.
Whether you’re looking for additional damage-dealing moves to enhance your offense, stat boosts that increase defense, or something in between, there’s a hero skill that can help. Each hero’s skills seek to improve on their already unique method of combat, offering access to stronger attacks, stat boosts, and more in Silent Hope.
This guide is a work in progress! As we continue our coverage of the game, we’ll be back to update this guide with even more helpful information about hero skills in Silent Hope.
Hero Skills Are Advanced Attacks
Though you’ll already be familiar with your seven heroes and their unique fighting styles as you begin getting into Silent Hope, as you begin tolevel up your heroes, they’ll be rewarded withone skill point per level they grow.
As soon as your first hero levels up a bit, you’re introduced to hero skills,additional skills unique to each fighter that hit harder, dampen damage taken, and offer special boosts.
In Silent Hope, each hero has access tothree skills at any time, and the combination of them (once all skills are unlocked) is truly up to you! Hero Skills allow you tocreate unique builds of your heroesand shape their abilities in a way that works for your playstyle, prompting unique playthroughs and encouraging exploration.
Hero Skills in SIlent Hope are divided intothree types of moves, and each one iscolor-coded.
When first unlocking a Hero Skill in Silent Hope, you’ll need to payone skill point to unlock the skill. After this, you canincrease the skill all the way to Level Fiveby investingmore skill points.
The first upgrade is one skill point, the second costs two, and so on until reaching the final level.
When rebuilding a hero after gaining access to new Hero Skills, it may be wise toreset your hero before reallocating their skill points, so as not to spend skill points on skills you’re not actively using.
Unlock New Classes To Access Additional Skills
Just like their regular classes,no two heroes have any of the same skills, since these Hero Skills are focused entirely on your hero’s individual fighting style.
And while you’ll never find a skill totally outside that hero’s wheelhouse, with each one sticking to their primary forms of combat and weaponry,every hero has nine possible skillsthat they can learn throughout the course of Silent Hope.
Only three skills are available at the beginning of Silent Hope. However, on the skill screen, you can see all of each hero’s skills, even before you can unlock them.
These other skills areavailable after unlocking the classlisted below that trio of skills. You unlock a new class atLevel 15 for each hero, and the final class is unlocked aftercompleting the story.
After gaining access to a new class, you’re able to access that class' skills regardless of which class you’re currently playing as the character. For example, your Farmer can still use her Farmer skills even if you’re currently playing her as a Rancher.
Higher classes have more powerful skills, so unlock different things andexperiment with different combinations of moves for each characterto find the Hero Skills that fit best to your play style.
