Red Hood Skill Guide: How to Level Up Red Hood – Gotham Knights

Skills in Gotham Knights are a core part of character progression, giving you sometimes massive boosts to your abilities, or even unlocking new utilities or moves themselves. These are purchased via Ability Points, which are earned from a variety of sources, like leveling up, completing certain challenges, or finding collectible sets. As you get more (and you can see how to do so with this guide), you might be wondering how best to spend them, since each character has 4 completely unique skill trees with a wide variety of skills.

The purpose of this guide is to help you figure out how best to spend your Ability Points for Red Hood, giving you level-by-level suggestions for what to purchase next. In order to get the most out of this guide, you should only purchase Perfect Evade (Marked “1”) before completing your Knighthood Challenge in order to unlock the Knighthood skill tree.

In order, the skills you should purchase are:

1. Perfect Evade – Marksman
2. Focused Fire – Marksman
3. Focused Fire + – Marksman
4. Weak Spot Damage + – Knighthood
5. Ranged Terror – Knighthood
6. Lucky Rounds – Marksman
7. Quickfire Expert – Marksman
8. Human Bomb – Brawler
9. Large Grab – Brawler
10. Extended Grab Window – Brawler
11. Human Bomb Enhanced – Brawler
12. Iron Grip – Brawler
13. Human Bomb Multiplied – Brawler
14. Grab Dread – Knighthood
15. Combat Mastery – Knighthood
16. Coup De Grace – Vengeance
17. Freaks Justice – Vengeance
18. Regulator Justice – Vengeance
19. Mob Justice – Vengeance
20. Combined Fire – Vengeance
21. Unrestricted Fire – Vengeance
22. Double Vortex – Vengeance
23. Shadow Vengeance – Knighthood
24. Ducra’s Training – Knighthood
25. Critical Expertise – Marksman
26. Precise Strikes – Marksman
27. Grab Expertise – Brawler

Note that this is just a recommended order for maximum efficiency, based on the utility provided by each skill. If you don’t want to follow this guide exactly, then you should keep in mind that, typically, skills that unlock new techniques should be prioritized, and that skills that complement each other (for example, those that improve criticals or health packs) should be purchased in blocks to maximize their benefit.
