Experience and Leveling



Rule Book

 Experience and levelling





To progress your character you will need to gain experience (EXP). Gaining experience will allow you to learn new skills and gain access to higher ranked skills through your guilds. For each day you play an event as your character you gain 7.5EXP. At any stage you can choose to spend your EXP or save it up for more expensive skills. All basic skills costs 15 EXP each and can be taken at any time. You can also spend 10 EXP to learn new spells or rune.



Levelling your character will give you access to the next rank of skills. The level of your character depends on the total amount of EXP you have spent. You can spend the EXP on skills, spells or runes, it does not matter what you have spent it on, only that it has been already spent. Specialist spells and skills have their own costs. The table below shows you how much EXP you must spend to reach each level.



 

Once you reach level 1 you will gain access to a guilds skill tree. Each guild skill tree contains more advanced skills that you can spend EXP. Each guild will have different skills depending on what th guild is known for. For example the scrolls guild will give you access to knowledge based skills. The skills gained from the guilds are ranked and each rank costs more than the last. The table below shows how much EXP each guild skill rank will cost.

 

Once you reach level 5 it is not the end of your characters progression. You can still buy more spells, runes and skills. You can take your character as far as you wish to go and make them an extremely powerful hero.

You cannot nominate yourself for bonus EXP.
