Adventurer Experience

Template:Infobox Template:Tocright Adventurer Experience consists of Experience Points (XP) that accumulate in the adventurer pool, and can subsequently be can be used to raise Adventurer Skills.

Players earn Adventurer Experience by the following methods:

• Killing hostile creatures in Combat.
• Completing Quests
• Using a Book of Learning
• Meticulous Collection when Gathering

The Adventurer XP is initially stored in your Adventurer Experience Pool (which can be seen by opening the Skills Window, and then clicking the "Adventuring" tab).

As you learn Adventurer Skills (i.e. raise the level of these skills), the XP is transferred from the adventure pool and into the skills being learned. XP in the adventurer pool can only be applied toward increasing Adventurer Skills.

Skill advancement requires the availability of Pooled Experience. A mage who spends all day throwing fireballs at training dummies will eventually find they have depleted their Pooled Adventurer Experience and be unable to further advance Adventurer skills. Your available pooled Experience for Adventuring and Production skills is displayed in the bottom-right of the appropriate skills tab.
