The game has a unique system that affects how a player levels up. It is called the mastery system.

Each time a character takes an action, they earn experience towards a certain mastery. Earning enough experience will rank the mastery up, which will in turn level the character up, making them stronger and granting them a skill point.

These skill points will be in turn used to invest them back into your skills. you can upgrade five skills: Q 1st skill, W 2nd skill, E 3rd skill, R Ultimate, and your Passive.

With each level up aside from the skill points, you will also get a specific bonus to the character’s statistics.

The Search Mastery increases with every container, air supply, gathering you open. Since all these can be found lying around you will be able to go in, open them, take any items you will need, and then move on.

The amount of EXP is not that much, and you can only gain it the first time you open them, but despite that, it is well worth it. You will be able to get in and get out avoiding unnecessary conflict.

In this mastery, you will also be able to obtain EXP by turning on security consoles.

The Craft Mastery

The Craft Mastery increases each time you craft items such as weapons, armor, and food.

In each game, you will pick a build path, and crafting toward that will be your victory condition. Items that help that victory condition are very important to pick up while searching.

The items your build needs are highlighted with a yellow triangle. Only craft those items to avoid wasting materials, and after you are done with your build you can craft food or items of high rarity.

The Hunt Mastery
