Leveling a character in the game happens by accumulating experience (Exp). When the experience bar reaches 100%, the character gains a level. As the level increases, the character becomes stronger: base stats go up, you gain stat and skill points, and you unlock the ability to wear higher-level equipment.
- Default EXP rates: 5x
- Maximum character level: 80
Gaining EXP and EXP Reduction
You can gain EXP by killing monsters. A character receives full (unreduced) EXP for killing a monster if:
- The character is no more than 4 levels higher than the monster
- The character is no more than 9 levels lower than the monster
- The character kills monsters solo or in a party of up to two players
For example, a level 40 character will gain full EXP for monsters from level 36 through 49 inclusive. If the level gap between the character and the monster is too large, or the character kills monsters in a party of 3–5 players, a reduction applies: the character receives only a portion of the possible EXP. Therefore, it’s optimal to level in a duo while choosing monsters around the party’s level.
You can see your current accumulated EXP by moving the cursor to the bottom of the screen and finding the large yellow bar near the HP and MH bars.
Party EXP
For all party members to receive EXP from killing monsters, they must be in close proximity both to the monsters and to each other. If one or more members stop receiving EXP, move ALL characters in the party closer together.
Where to Level
Every player can find the most convenient EXP-farming spots on their own. One of the simplest early-game methods is doing the story quests.
