The primary way to earn skill points is to by level up your Combat. The quickest way to do this is to play through the game’s main story quest—this is where a massive bulk of your skill points will come from.

Leveling should be your main focus. Then, when you reach East Luterra (the fourth region), from here until Shushire is where you can start to branch off to find collectibles, face the Tower, and complete Hidden quests.
