As you play through missions in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, your character will gain XP and boost up in levels. Each level you gain will open up Skill Points that you can spend on various skills for your character. These skills range from increasing the potency of your equipment, bettering your mobility, and even making your drone much more useful.
In addition to gaining levels, you can also discover extra Skill Points while out exploring Bolivia. Skill Points will be hidden everywhere and can be discovered by either finding Intel, speaking with locals, or interrogating enemy lieutenants.
