Elex: Character development, attributes and abilities Elex Guide

Last update: 27 November 2022

Our character is developed by increasing attributes and buying new abilities. Each level gives us 10 points that we can spend on increasing attributes and 1 ability point (remember that in order to upgrade a skill you need the right trainer). The character gets a level when he has a required amount of experience - you can get it by completing quests, killing enemies and drinking Elex Drinks.

In Elex, attributes upgrade your character (more damage, health etc - Elex: Character development, attributes and abilities - Character development - Elex Game Guide
