Q: How will a player gain experience? Will there be a cap on what level one can achieve?

A: MEO does not use experience points. Characters can raise their stats, skills and vitals by actively participating in combat, crafting and quests. MEO also features a time based advancement feature that will allow players to increase their character’s stats while they are not logged in the game.
