Sekiro can have multiple skill trees, but you have to find their corresponding Esoteric Texts to unlock them. The first skill tree is the Shinobi Arts tree. Continue killing enemies until you reach 1 skill point. Return to the Sculptor to get the Shinobi Esoteric Text. Commune with the nearby idol to unlock the option to learn skills. Skills are permanent and will help you immensely in combat. Unlocking the other skill trees will require certain conditions. More of that will be discussed in our guide.
There are three types of skills:
Combat Arts: Powerful attacks that can be equipped. Only one combat art can be equipped at any given time.
Shinobi Martial Arts: These are passive skills that can be activated by meeting the correct conditions.
Latent Skills: These are passive skills that are always in effect once learned. Multiple skills with the same effect (like medicine potency) stack.
