How to Gain Experience ("XP")[edit source]
The player gains XP by exploring, gathering, crafting and hunting. When you gain enough XP, you'll also gain a level, or "level up".
You can see your progress of earing XP between levels in the inventory window by pressing i, or keeping an eye on the "XP" icon on the bottom right of your screen. When you hunt, you gain XP by killing animals. Killing Predator (carnivore) creatures give more XP than the herbivores. When you explore and discover new islands an XP boost is given for each new island discovered. The 
spear does more damage to players and animals than fists, but have a chance of breaking. 
Metal tools will have higher durability and harvest rates, but requires the 
smithy to craft. Once the player hits level 8, EXP gets capped and the player must leave Freeport regions to advancing further.
Learning Skills[edit source]
For each new level you achieve, you'll be able to upgrade some of your character stats (Health, Stamina, Fortitude, Weight and Intelligence.) Clicking one of these icons when they're "glowing" will allow you to increase your maximum capacity in whichever you choose (ex: You can increase how many health points you have when fully healthy). Then you'll be able to choose a new skill (or more) on the skills tab.
Planning Your Skills[edit source]
Choose your skills wisely when leveling up. Most skills after the first level require a previous skill to be unlocked, and it's important to plan ahead. For example, you need to learn Tools Of The Trade before you can learn Archery Unlock and the Archery skill is required to unlock ability to make Archery & Throwing Weapons. Sometimes it's smarter to save your skill points for the next level, in case your desired path costs more than you have earned at your current level.
Hovering over a skill icon (even when it's dark) in the Skills tab will provide more information about what you can do with the skill, and help you plan the path of your character. You can also use the calculator at Atlas Calculator to plan your upgrade path ahead of time.
If you want to change your Skills after you have already learned them, you need to respec.
Leveling after LVL8[edit source]
On most servers, (some unofficial servers have this turned off) you will need to explore the world and find another island once you achieve level 8. You won't be able to continue earning XP after that, if you stay in the Freeport area.
Depending on your level you earn different amount of Skill points per level:
| Level | SP | Notes | method |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | Can be earned in Freeport | Set the Point in Survivalism harvest and build basic stuff |
| 2 - 8 | 3 | Can be earned in Freeport | With level 4 you've enough skill points to skill Archery & Throwing Weapons after that you need to skill the Basics of the bow. Now you can craft  Bow and  Stone Arrow . Now you need to kill Alpha Animals
|
| 9 - 10 | 3 | Cannot be earned in Freeports | Killing Alpha Animals |
| 11 - 21 | 4 | Cannot be earned in Freeports | Killing Alpha Animals |
| 22 - 31 | 5 | Cannot be earned in Freeports | Killing more Alpha Animals or find and fight Treasure |
| 32 - 41 | 6 | Cannot be earned in Freeports | Killing more Alpha Animals or find and fight Treasure |
| 42 - 51 | 7 | Cannot be earned in Freeports | Killing more Alpha Animals or find and fight Treasure |
| 52 - 100 | 8 | Cannot be earned in Freeports |
