Knowledge is power, and that is just as true in WarTales as it is in real life. Knowledge points are an important resource to gather, as they allow you to unlock new recipes, helpful passives, and useful upgrades for your camp.
Gathering as many points as possible early in the game can unlock some incredibly helpful avenues for progression, as well as gear that would be hard to obtain otherwise.
Knowledge points require experience to unlock, which is tracked at the top of the screen. There are numerous ways to build towards these points, so you would do well to understand the possibilities before beginning your journey.
This guide will walk you through the main ways you will gain knowledge points, so you can build up your recipes and grow your party’s strength.
What Are the Best Ways to Gain Knowledge Points in Wartales?
The best ways to get knowledge points are:
- Explore the map and find points of interest
- Craft recipes for the first time
- Find knowledge books out in the world

Points of interest will also appear as a question mark on the world map if you have walked near one without discovering it yet. When journeying towards objectives, make sure to visit as many points of interest as you can on the way. This experience will add up quickly, especially early on in your journey.
How Does Crafting in Wartales Get You Knowledge Points?
Many crafting recipes will give knowledge bonuses after crafting them for the first time. When you go to craft an item, look directly to the right of the craft button. A white star means that you will get knowledge point experience for crafting the item for the first time.
Not all items grant a knowledge point boost, as some crafted items instead open up new possible unlocks for that specific trade skill. Still, many of the entry-level craftable items give the knowledge point experience, so it should be easy to get a few points early.
How Do Knowledge Books in Wartales Get You Knowledge Points?
Knowledge books can also be found out in the world, giving set amounts of knowledge point experience. They can be found in numerous places. Sometimes they can be located on chests, sometimes they are dropped by specific enemies after death.
If you make sure to explore the entirety of a region you can find a good number of them on your travels. As long as you keep your eyes open when completing new quests and searching new areas, you will find them.
