Growth Points are the primary currency for character power in Echoes of Aincrad. You earn them by leveling up and spend them at the Chest Orb in the inn at the Town of Beginnings. Unlike weapon proficiency, Growth Points affect all your core stats permanently.
Cardinal Rank gates partner abilities and town services — raise it by completing main quest segments and discovering new areas. The Growth Points guide explains the full system; use the advisor below for quick recommendations.
