![Upgrading your character's skills in Elex 2 is complicated - Elex 2: Skill Trainers - list - World Map - Elex 2 Guide](/elex-2/gfx/word/527605078.jpg)
Upgrading your character's skills in Elex 2 is complicated. You can't immediately spend skill points obtained by advancing to higher experience levels. You must find a skill trainer and meet the requirements to unlock the skill you want. These are:
- Finding the correct trainer - each trainer has their own specialty and can't teach you any skill you want. The list later on should come in handy, as it will tell you who to visit to upgrade a skill.
- Having at least 1 skill point - you don't lose skill points until you spend them. You don't have to use them right away but you can hoard them to visit a specific trainer and purchase several skills at once.
- Developing Jax's attributes - each skill has different requirements (in the example pictured above we need 25 Constitution and 15 Strength) which increase if the skill has several levels.
- Paying for training with Elexit - the better the skill, the more elexit you must spend to learn it - 500 in the example pictured above. You should save up for training and not spend your money on less important things.
