What Are Skill Points?
Points Needed to Learn Skills

Skill Points are needed for Umamusume to acquire skills during their Career. Since they're valuable and not easy to farm, avoid spending them carelessly and focus on the ones you really need first.
Lower Costs by Raising Hint Levels

Depending on Career and Support Card event outcomes, a skill's Hint Levels can increase. Higher Hint Levels reduce the Skill Point cost needed to learn that skill, so it's best to wait and acquire it after the Hint Levels goes up.
