So here's the deal with skill points - once you spend them theres no going back which can feel a bit scary at first. I definitely had to think carefully about my choices when I was starting out. If youre on pc, theres actually this mod on nexus that removes the tier requirements, which gives you a bit more freedom with your builds even though you still cant get points back.

For everyone else playing without mods, the only real way to start fresh with skills is beginning a new game but dont stress too much about it. You'll eventually earn enough points to grab everything anyway, especially if you stick around for endgame content and take down all those hordes.

Something that really helped me was focusing on the focused shot skill early on in the ranged tree - its probably the most useful skill youll unlock, and it makes such a huge difference when youre trying to survive those tough encounters. Makes aiming way easier and more reliable when things get intense.
