Leveling and Stat Growth

Upon leveling, every character gains a point with which they can upgrade a particular parameter of their stats. Depending on the level, there are different kinds of stat point that are available to upgrade your stats with. It is possible to hold off upgrading particular stats, as well as being able to reset point buys so you can re-specialize should you find your choice of stats not satisfactory.

Every 5 levels, you will gain 1 of 51 Aspect Points. The three Aspects are BODY, MIND, and SPIRIT. When you receive an Aspect point, you can assign it to one of these Aspects, which increases all stats governed by that Aspect.

Every 3 levels, except those which are multiples of 5, you will gain 1 of 68 Aptitude Points. The 6 Aptitudes are STRENGTH, CONSTITUTION, INTELLIGENCE, WISDOM, DEXTERITY, AND CHARISMA. When you receive an Aptitude point, you can assign it to one of the 6 Aptitudes, which increases all stats governed by that Aptitude.

Every other level, you will gain 1 of 136 Amplitude Points. The 10 Amplitudes are DETRIMENT, ARDOR, WARD, MAR, IMPETUS, AEGIS, ALACRITY, SCHISM, CADENCE, AND BEWILDERMENT. When you receive an Amplitude point, you can assign it to one of the 10 Amplitudes, which increases that stat.

The Three Aspects each contain Two Aptitudes, which in turn have 1-2 Amplitudes within.
