How to Reset Ability Points?

Reset Skill - Banner 1.jpg
The only way to Reset or Respec your Ability Points is if you use an item called Potion of Clearance which can be extremely rare and hard to find. In the whole game there are only 4 vendors who can sell you this item and each costs 1,000 coins.

Where to Buy Potion of Clearance
