Players can earn 1 Talent Point each time they level up. You will need to earn Talent Points to unlock and use talents in the game. When you want to allocate points, open a talent category and spend your points there. Choose wisely, as there is a maximum of 36 Talent Points available in the game, so you won't be able to unlock every one of the 48 abilities in one playthrough.
Talents can upgrade your spells, plants, and potions to improve their effectiveness in the game. Prioritizing the ones that suit your playstyle tremendously help you progress faster in Hogwarts Legacy.
You can freely choose to get all the talents in a category first or spread them out as you progress.
Hogwarts Legacy doesn't have a respec option for Talents which means there is no way of reallocating spent Talent Points. Each Talent costs 1 point and you certainly won't be able to unlock all of them so choose your Talents wisely.
Can you Respec? How to Undo Talent Points
Talents are not immediately unlocked, and you will need to complete the Jackdaw's Rest main quest to start upgrading Talents.
