Batgirl Skill Guide: How to Level Up Batgirl – 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 Batgirl, 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 – Justice
2. HP + – Grit
3. Remote Hacking – Oracle
4. Shocking Devices – Oracle
5. Digital Ghost – Orcale
6. Health Regen – Knighthood
7. Elite Beatdown – Justice
8. Piercing Beatdown – Justice
9. Unflinching Heavy Strike – Grit
10. Heavyweight – Justice
11. Grapple Pull – Knighthood

23. Drone Ambush Blast – Knighthood
24. Second Wind – Grit
25. Vigilante Resolve – Grit
26. Second Wind + – Grit
27. Sense of Victory – Grit

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.

Now that you know how best to spend your AP for Batgirl, you are ready to take on Gotham and start earning those Ability Points. Or, maybe you want to check out the Skill Guides for the other characters, to make sure your whole Bat-Family is ready to go.
