Prestige

Overview

Prestige is the name for expanding a single class character beyond the normal restrictions at level 50. Prestige characters require a leveling investment in order to unlock the additional powers and rewards.

A prestige character can be single classed or multi-classed. A new wear restriction has been introduced, "Prestige" which will allow a character to wear and item which matches their secondary class, but not their primary.

The character must be level 50 to enter prestige status and will have to be re-leveled from level 5 at a rate of a rumoured 1/7th normal experience gain.

Prestige characters have potential bonuses to hitpoint, mana, and movement gains.

There is a +1 to the primary stat of the secondary class - 26 max, for single class prestige just consider the secondary class as the primary class, e.g. a vampire-vampire.

Though currently unknown skills are being introduced specifically for the prestige project.

Bladesinger and Barbarian are currently not eligible for prestige.
