What to Buy First frorm Opher

The first abilities you should invest your Spirit Light orbs when you first meet Opher are Spirit Smash and Spirit Star. Spirit Smash is a hamer of light that acts as Ori's heavy attack and you will need it to break enemy shells and shields as well as to crack open secret walls later in the game. Spirit Star is a throwing star that acts like a boomerang which is particularly useful against flying enemies and those that stick to walls.
