Here, you will learnhow to unlock skillsandhow to get XP.
We have also prepared a list of ourrecommended abilities.
How to get XP?
The best way to get a large amount of XP is tocomplete main and side cases.
A single case can give you more than 1,000XP.
Another good method is tokill monsters.
The amount of received XP depends on the pop in of creature you have killed.
The bigger and stronger, the more XP you get.
You don’t get XP for killing humans, even when they are hostile towards Reed.
However, you might get XP by completing parts of cases related to them.
You get XP by finding these areas and by killing any monster found in those places.
Look forrare artifactshidden in the Infested Areas.
Each of these items is worth a lot of XP.
Besides the methods mentioned above, you could also get XP byachieving 100% completion in locations.
Namely, locations visited during cases and marked on the map with a magnifying glass icon.
Explore an entire location to get several hundred of XP.
How to get Knowledge Points?
Knowledge Pointsare received every time you collect enough XP to level up.All skills are worth 1 Knowledge Point.
Sadly, it’s possible for you to’t access all the skills right away.
Those located further on the tree require you purchase the preceding ones first.
We have tried to include skills that don’t have any abilities preceding them.
