Point-Buy

This is the customization method used for ranged and ability-focused classes.

You are given a number of customization points based on your level which can be used to purchase abilities from a tiered list. The list is divided into three tiers: Expert, Adept, and Novice. You will receive a number of Expert points equal to your level, and then LV+1 for Adept and LV+2 for Novice. Unspent points in a higher tier can be ‘dropped down’ and spent at lower tiers.

CUSTOMIZATION POINTS BY LEVEL
	EXPERT	ADEPT	NOVICE
Lv. 1	1	2	3
Lv. 2	2	3	4
Lv. 3	3	4	5
Lv. 4	4	5	6
Lv. 5	5	6	7
Lv. 6	6	7	8
