Hello! I'm very new to the game and I've been getting some guidance from my friend when I can. However, I believe I've completely messed up my skills. Being new to the game, I didn't understand the value of skill allocation. Not knowing the outcome or purpose of skills, I just added whatever I thought would be fun. For example, I am a warrior and I when I started I had a twohanded sword, but I added a bunch of skill upgrades to one handed lord and sword, and some to double axe.
Someone told me there was a way to undo these skills and I saw the nun in constantinopole had a quest about it. I just figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here.
I am also told you can acquire second class. I would like to be bard also. Is this okay?

Sorry for the all the noob questions. I just want to start getting serious about playing the game, and this is my first start.

You need to be level 20 atleast to be able to do the cursed hearts quest ( you are obv. +20 though ) and to have some gold to delevel the skills .
10 cursed hearts ---> 1 potion ( 1 skill ) .

Warrior / Bard shall be a fine build and it is not hard to play with it .

Warrior/bard is basically just warrior - as bard doesn't go well with a str character. If you only take noise and march it is less sp-heavy.

also, curst hearts only give back 60% of the skill points you put in, so consider being a little more careful :) But it's your first character, everyone messes those up..

Warrior/cleric would be a more powerful build but definitely needs more SP.

Look at nivlam.rev6.com for some SP calculators so you get an idea of how much you'll need to have all the skills you might want. Don't let the amount worry you, as long as you party a lot and create a gap, it is still possible to get enough SP. Farming SP would not be a bad idea either.

Cursed hearts give 80% of the sp used to level a skill up not 60% .

You better not look at how much sp you will need at 100 or 110 cap , you will be astonished !! { there are some high level quests that will give you the needed sp to be fully farmed , +105 quests } , just play and have fun and keep some gap and you will do fine (a 3-4 constant gap without farming can do fine but don't take all the skills) .

I do agree that Warrior/Cleric is better and more common but if you want bard , go for it ...
