On NA, player level is tied to a player's server progression.
By leveling up, players gain skill points which can be invested into different skills or jutsus in skill trees using /menu such as Elemental jutsus and different specialisation jutsus.
💡How do I increase my level?
To increase your level you must gain XP.
After gaining the XP requirement to reach the next level you will level up and gain 1 SP.
XP can be gained by doing quests, killing mobs on the server (which also drop ryo), doing dungeons, or dueling players using /duel
⚠️ XP requirements increase exponentially, so leveling up to higher levels will gradually get harder.
💭 Where do I see my level?
You can see your level by looking at the orange number above your hotbar.
Player hotbar - the orange number (15 in this case) indicates a player's level
The orange EXP bar shows a player's progress until the next level is reached.
More detailed information about your level can be accessed by using /menu.
Hovering over "Your Statistics" in /menu will show you your level, as well as other useful information regarding your progress.
