Skill Level

Each skill has its own Skill Level that increases as it keeps being used. Skill EXP gained with each skill use is a fixed amount, increased only by having a Mentor Specialist equipped.

The effect from increasing Skill Level changes with each game:


 * Disgaea 1 and 2: As they level up, all skills get increased SP cost, and attack skills get increased damage. Spells also get an increase to range and AoE.
 * Disgaea 3 and 4: Skill Level seems to do nothing, its effects being replaced by the boosts from the Evility Shop.
 * Disgaea 5 and 6: Skill Level does not modify damage but now it reduces SP cost. The reduction is far more obvious in Disgaea 6 due to the increased base SP costs of characters.

When a character Reincarnates they will lose part of each skills total EXP(depending on the Inheritance Rate of the Reincarnation), reducing the level of their skills. In Disgaea 1 and 2, if a skill would lose enough EXP to return to level zero because of this then the character will forget that skill (though it can still be relearned).
