How Leveling Works

How Leveling Works

Leveling in Volaire is based on XP accumulation and reflects your character's overall progression. You gain XP by attending events, completing plot objectives, crafting, contributing to the game world, and submitting post-event updates.

📊 How to Calculate Your Level

Your character level is determined by:

Total Earned XP ÷ 100 (rounded down)

XP Range	Level
500–599	5
600–699	6
700–799	7
…	…

All new characters start at Level 5 (500 XP).

🧾 How XP is Earned

Source	XP Awarded
Attending a Full Event	80 XP (Levels 5–15)
	50 XP (Levels 16–25)
	30 XP (Levels 26+)
Plot/Roleplay Bonuses	+10 to +50 XP per event
Crafting or Submissions	Variable, based on effort
Backstory Submission	Up to 100 XP (one-time reward)
Post-Event Report (PER)	+5 XP if submitted on time

You must sign in and submit required check-in materials to receive full XP.

💰 Banking XP

You may choose to bank XP at any time. Banked XP can be saved and spent later when:

You gain access to a new teacher
A new skill unlocks
You change your progression strategy

To bank XP, indicate this in your check-in envelope or on your PER.

📚 Teacher Cards & Learning

Many skills require a Teacher Card showing in-play instruction by a qualified character or NPC.

Skills with prerequisites require teaching, unless waived by Logistics or Plot
Players caught using skills without proper instruction may lose access until re-taught

If you're unsure if you qualify to buy a skill, ask Logistics before the event.

🔒 Skill Caps & Restrictions

Some skills have per-level limits (e.g., “once every 5 levels”)
Others may be race-restricted or class-specific
Always refer to your race/class page before purchasing
