User Guide

Click on the skill name of the skill you want to spend some

points on. The skill will highlight, and the pointer on the right-hand

side of the skill column will jump to the skill level. You can spend

points by clicking on the plus sign on the pointer. If you change your

mind, and spend too many points, you can click on the minus sign

(but you can’t reduce your skill below the point where you started

spending skill points, naturally). Until you actually hit the DONE

button and return to the game, you can make as many adjustments

as you wish. If you click on the CANCEL button, it will restore your

character to the state you were in before making any changes.

You can spend as many skill points as you have in the skill point

pool. Once you are out, you won’t get any more skill points until you

get another level.

The maximum skill level is 200%. If you have 200% in a skill,

you cannot add more points to that skill.

PERKS

Besides skills, it is possible for experience to reward you in

another manner - Perks. You get one Perk every three levels (level 3,

6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21), unless you have the Skilled trait (every four

levels; level 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20). A Perk is a new ability. Perks are

based on your character, and the list of Perks that you can choose

from is based on what level, statistics, and skills your character has.

You will have the opportunity to pick a Perk when you enter the

character screen after achieving a level that grants you a Perk. You

can choose not to pick a Perk, but if you don’t select one before the

next Perk-granting level, you lose it.
