Experience and levels

The level cap is 100. The campaign takes your hero to around level 36; after that, the climb continues through the endgame Maps, with a curve that gets much steeper in the last levels.

Where experience comes from

• Monsters: each kill gives experience based on the monster's level and rarity (rarity table below). Monsters far below your level give less; monsters above it give at most what a monster at the edge of the safe zone would.
• Quests: each quest gives a share of the experience of its recommended level. If you do the quest far above that level, you get less.
• Co-op: in a group, everyone in the same instance earns experience from kills, split by the group rule.

When you level up

• +2 attribute points (character sheet, C key).
• +1 passive tree point (V key).
• +1 Skill Tree point (K key).
• A little more base Life and Mana.

Dying

From level 20 on, reviving in town after dying costs 5% of the experience needed for your current level, but you never lose the level. If an ally revives you in co-op, you get all of that experience back.
