Level and class skills’ percentage from
general skills

Upon gaining a level, the character will become more resilient because his health will be increased. Your character will inflict more damage. Item crafting will become more efficient and items will become more powerful.

This table contains the following information:
The level is limited from 1 to 7.
Class skills’ percentage from
general skills. Having skills that belong only to a certain class, for example, a Warrior, will result in 100%. If you have another skill that is not related to your class, the percentage will be decreased. If the percentage drops below the maximum indicated in the table, the character’s level will be reduced.
The minimum number of general skills required. Having all 8 class skills, like a Warrior, the skills may be of any level but of 600 total so that the character could reach 1 level.
The maximum total number.
The numbers in the table, for example, 1000, indicate that having 1 skill level and having skills from other classes in total being equal to or less than 999 together with the main skills, keeps the character on the 1 level. As the level increases, the number of additional skills decreases.

Class levels:

For the Wanderer, there is a different skill level system. A level is obtained when a certain number of skills are reached. If these skills match the table, there will be no Wanderer’s level, as another class will take priority.
Thus, in order to get the level of a Wanderer, it is necessary to reach a certain number of skills and reduce the percentage of class skills < 60.

1 level = 2000
2 level = 2500
3 level = 3000
4 level = 3500
5 level = 4500
6 level = 5500
7 level = 7000
