Levelling up

In preparation for Season 2, Players will now level up and and earn skill points to enhance their characters.

Levels

Level is assigned automatically as characters earn XP points by performing in-game actions. Every new earned level gives players 1 extra skill point in order to enhance their character’s skills. All the XP earned on the 1st season is saved and if you played enough, your character should have a few skill points to spend.

How to increase skills

Step 1

After login, use the command profile to visualize your character’s identity, level, notoriety, skill information etc.

Step 2

At the bottom of the profile page the Player can find how many unspent skill points he has available.

Each level up allows one skill point to be spent on a single skill.

If you have enough Available skill points, simply choose the skill you want to increase in the interface and click on the “+1” button and confirm.

As of now, spent skill points are non-refundable and you can only spend each of them once to enhance your character, so choose wisely.

Skills

Character skills provide a permanent extra bonus to your in-game actions, in addition to any wereables bonuses such as Avatars and Bioscans.

• Attack and Penetration:* Used to attack a network in the most traditional sense. Attacking reduces the Breach Resistance of a network.
• Defense: Used to prevent other players, networks, and AIs from attacking you or others.
• Obfuscation and Anonymity* Used to execute actions anonymously on the Dnet, this is especially useful to reduce the Alert Level of a network during an attack. Allowing a network to reach its maximum alert level could have serious consequences for those invading it.
• Network Scanning* Used to find dormant networks as well as to enhance players’ understanding of the internal structure of a network. Strategically, a very important skill.
• Encryption and Data Analysis Used to process encrypted data packages that contain loot, pieces of software, hardware and other valuable information.
• Hardware Engineering Used to repair and craft new hardware.
• Software Engineering Used to repair and craft new software.

* Very important in Net Scavenging
