Expertise Level

Expertise level represents a character’s specialization in certain abilities or skills. By spending additional experience units (XU), a character can improve beyond basic proficiency. Level 0 indicates no proficiency. There are four levels of expertise, unlocked as the character gains levels:

  1. Novice
  2. Adept (unlocked at level 5)
  3. Specialist (unlocked at level 10)
  4. Master (unlocked at level 15)

Expertise applies to skills, abilities, and lore. Talents, techniques, and spells do not have expertise levels.
