Character Progression
Every LevelZ attribute and its PotA-specific effects, from combat requirements to mana, stamina, movement and professions.
How progression works
PotA uses LevelZ to represent your character's developing skills and set requirements for equipment and activities. LevelZ+ adds integrations that make those skills relevant to stamina, magic, mobility, critical hits and other systems. Skills advance independently and are not simply copies of your Minecraft experience level.
Most LevelZ skills have a configured cap of 50. Job experience and quests can support your progression, but meeting a requirement remains part of the journey.
All character attributes

| Agility / Movement | Movement speed increases with skill level. | +0.02 roll distance and +0.1 roll-recharge improvement per level; an extra roll charge at levels 10, 30 and 50. |

Experience from combat and activities
Eligible players who deal damage to an enemy receive the full configured LevelZ progression XP when it dies, provided they are alive and connected at the time. The reward is not divided among teammates. A mob's health and PotA's combat XP calculations can affect the amount received.
Separate profession progression rewards normal activities such as mining, crafting, harvesting, fishing and building. All eight professions are active simultaneously. See Professions & Jobs for the effective settings.
Requirements and equipment
Attributes determine more than passive bonuses: they also decide which items and activities are available. A weapon may look ideal for your build but still require additional skill levels before you can use it effectively. Check its tooltip and the relevant equipment guide before investing.
