Unless you’re entirely new to the world of RPGs, you’ve likely had to deal with Talents already in one way or the other. Let’s get into the core of the Knowledge System and find out how they can be spent. OK, now you know how Knowledge Points are earned. Reading a fragment for the first time consumes it and awards you with a fixed amount of Knowledge Points according to its rarity. Fragments of a Lost Tale are only awarded to the players who manage to defeat one of the Legends, mighty world bosses that can be summoned in the remotest locations of each planet. Lost Tales are among the hardest items to obtain in the world of Fractured Online. Obtaining the full knowledge of each resource is rather quick as it doesn’t involve combat, but figuring out where each resource is located is no easy feat! As with creatures, your Book of Knowledge contains a section dedicated to your discoveries of natural elements, including plants, trees, and different types of minerals. Every time you increase of your knowledge of a creature, you are rewarded with Knowledge Points! Multiple interactions / kills gradually reveal more detailed data on the creature, including its attributes and abilities. New entries in the bestiary only report the most basic information on a creature, such as its name and species. The bestiary is a personal diary where you store all the information on the types of creatures you’ve interacted with and/or defeated. Whenever you do so, you are awarded with Knowledge Points according to the importance of the place you’ve visited. If you want to become a knowledgeable explorer, you need to travel through every region of the world to document all the locations that are marked as undiscovered. This ignorance is reflected in the world map, which is dotted with little questions marks. A new character in Fractured Online not only has just a basic awareness of combat and magical arts, but is also oblivious of all the points of interest of the world it lives in. Let’s have a look at the four main situations that lead to earning Knowledge Points. Their acquisition takes place naturally during your gaming sessions – and the more varied the things you do are, the better! Unlike the usual “experience points” you can find in most MMORPGs, in Fractured Online grinding (repeating the same action over and over) is not the way you earn Knowledge Points. Once earned, you can spend them to obtain Talent Points and start learning new abilities. In Fractured Online, Knowledge Points can be seen as your personal progression “ currency”, which you acquire over time while playing the game. Let’s look at the system in more detail now! KNOWLEDGE POINTS Talents don’t create a huge power gap between newcomers and experienced players though, as they are mostly useful to fine-tune your character builds. A minor exception to the rule are Talents, explained later in this journal.This, coupled with the Resting system, allows you to design a ton of situational builds to engage in different scenarios more effectively. This happens in many ways, but one above all: the array of abilities at its disposal becomes larger and larger. Aside from equipment progression, your character doesn’t really become stronger over time.Attributes don’t increase during gameplay, but a free “respec” is provided in case you’ve made a mistake during character creation. The core strengths and weaknesses of your character are defined during character creation by setting your attributes.This game mechanic combines the following rules: To still provide a sense of progression and long-term achievement, Fractured Online introduces a new experience called the Knowledge System. Before we begin, let’s make sure we are all on the same page: progression on Fractured Online is neither level- nor skill-based, to avoid the usual grind that comes with skill progression in comparable games.
