Overview

Each character's strengths and abilities are measured by their level. A character's level begins at 1 and can increase to a maximum of 69.

In order for a character's level to increase, they must earn Experience Points. Experience Points ("EXP") can be gained either through killing monsters or completing quests. EXP can be lost through character death. The amount lost scales to level and is roughly equal to 5% at level 10 and 1.5% at level 60. Character death can never lower a character's EXP to less than 0% and so will never result in the loss of a level.

Each time a character gains a level, that character gains a single Skill Point which can be used to learn a new Skill or to develop a Skill already learned. Additional skill points are granted after Class Changes and upon achieving levels 30 and 60.

Each level gained also increases the base Stats of a character by a set amount dependant on the character's class choice.

Additionaly, a higher character level allows access to higher level equipment and quests (both of which are all character level restricted).

First and Second Job(Class) Changes and Awakenings

At certain points in a character's span of levels, advancement of EXP is suspended and a character must complete a Class Change or Awakening Quest before they are allowed to advance further. These Quests were removed with the release on Thursday June 19 and the Temperion's Qualification Quest for a Temperion to acquire their First Job was replaced by the First Choice Quest.

First Job(Class) Choice

All characters start off as a Temperion. Temperions are limited to a maximum of level 9 and 100% EXP. Upon reaching level 9 a character can begin the quest Temperion's Qualification. Upon completion of the quest, a character must choose a First Class to advance to. Doing so also raises a character's level to 10, allowing further advancement in their new class of choice.

Advancement from a Temperion to a First Class is a complete change in character type. Temperion Stats, Skills, Skill Points do not carry over to a character's First Class. The character's new Stats are based solely on the First Class choice. The skills in a Temperion's Skill Window are replaced with skills from the character's First Class. All previously learned Temperion Skills are lost and all spent or unspent Skill Points are lost.

A character's Skill Points are set to 3 upon choosing their First Class.

With the Final Launch the Temperion's Qualification Quest was replaced. You can play as Temperion beyond level 9, but if you want to change your job at you have to do the First Choice Quest given by the Temperion DNA Manager in Rondel, if you begin in Crescent, or in Kurt if you begin in Turba. If you completed the Temperion Skill Test Quests while you are a Temperion the Temperion Skills will remain in your skill window until you reset your skills through the item mall.

First Awakening

Before completing the First Awakening quest, a character is limited to a maximum level of 29 and 100% EXP. The First Awakening Quest can be started as soon as a character is level 29. Upon completion of the quest, a character's level increases to 30 and an additional 2 skill points are earned.

With Final Launch the first Awakening Quest was removed. You can level without quest up to Level 30, but you still get three Skillpoints instead of one.

Advanced Class Choice

There is no quest to choose an Advanced Class. You have to be at least Level 50. You can then change your job by talking to a Temperion Master and change your Job. (You can still Level up in your first class, but your mastery´s won´t increase if you don´t change job.)

An Advanced Class is a natural extension of a character's First Class choice. All First Class Stats, Skills, and spent or unspent Skill Points are retained. Additional skill choices become available in the "2nd Job" tab of the Skill Window. An additional 4 skill points are earned when a character chooses their Advanced Class.

Second Awakening

Before completing the Second Awakening quest, a character is limited to a maximum level of 59 and 100% EXP. Completion of the Second Awakening quest increases a character's level to 60 and grants a currently unknown amount of additional Skill Points.

This is no longer in game. No quest to get to 60 (you get 3 skill points for reaching 60.)
