How to unlock the Firestarter achievement in Bound by Flame - Definitive Guide
You get 2 skill points per level and to max out each Skill Tree you will need 36 skill points total.
The first time you rank up you will hit level 2 so that means you must reach level 19 in order to acquire enough points.
You will not be able to max out more than 1 skill tree per playthrough so you will either have to do 3 separate playthroughs until level 19 each dedicated to one skill class
OR...
You can save all your points until you hit level 19 then make a save file and max out each tree while reverting to your save after each is maxed.
This is easier said than done, even though the game is fairly easy on the easiest difficulty you can find yourself getting killed quite frequently if you do not know what you are doing.
So I recommend you get used to the game before trying this and play on Recruit.
Also you get "Feat" points, 1 per level gained, which you should use to buy the 2 experience boosts BEFORE anything else, Practical - 10% for 1 point & Passionate - 20% 3 points.
- you will need to eliminate a certain amount of enemies to unlock each one.
These feats will help you get to level 19 faster.
Be sure to do as many side quests as you can to help get exp.
If you are having trouble fighting enemies you could spend a few points - like in the Warrior class for health regeneration and/or improved parrying which will help in the beginning.
- Just remember that each skill point used will have to be earned back by leveling up another level so do not get carried away if you are going to use this method.
Missable!
In order to max out a skill tree, you need a total of 36 skill points. In order to access the Skills menu, push (Options on PS4) and use or to move to the appropriate menu. Use the button to spend your skill points after highlighting desired skills or upgrades.
You obtain 2 skill points every level meaning you need a minimum level of 19 to unlock every skill and upgrade for a single tree. If you want all tree trophies in a single playthrough then you can play on Hawk difficulty and save all your skill points until level 19. Save your game and unlock all three trophies at once. If you choose this route then you'll want to upgrade one tree completely and then reload your save. Repeat until you earn all three trophies.
In most cases you'll beat the game around level 24 so it's safe to spend about 8 points on whatever you think will make things a little easier for you.
As you can tell from the picture above, skills are unlocked in tiers depending on the amount of points you've spent in a specific tree. Novice tier requires 1 to 5 skill points, Amateur is levels 6 to 11, Expert is 12 to 23, and Master is 24. You do not need to spend 35 points in a single tree to unlock the highest tiered skill but you will need to purchase and upgrade every skill to its highest form to unlock the respective trophies.
