# Progression Character progression is, for many, the most significant appeal of an MMO. We’ve put a lot of thought into making sure our game mechanics reward and empower players to spend time and effort toward mastering the world around them. Your level of progression will be measured in EXP, which is a numerical value representing how much a player has used a skill (we’ll describe the different types of skills shortly). Players will gain EXP when executing a skill or as a reward for completing quests or defeating an enemy: the more EXP gained, the higher the skill level a player will obtain. Higher levels will unlock perks, equipment, quests, and new locations on the map, enriching and expanding the gamer experience. So, what skills will there be for players to master? ![](https://4102960008-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMtdJItb2EVkuDFoOpCYw%2Fuploads%2FsbNALwS1qF1XbgXURZAl%2Fminingxp.png?alt=media\&token=3278defa-c50d-4b02-a0b5-3320c420664f) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
