Banking my upgrades

I had an idea. I'm curious what you think.

I'm grinding for levels and a RoLS while waiting for 0.6.10. I'm gaining more minor healing potions than I am using, so I don't need to upgrade my stats in order to do what I'm doing. So I think I'm going to just not level up until 0.6.10 arrives. Then, if there was some rebalancing done, I can decide which stats I need to boost.

I did a quick test on a new game, and didn't level up to 2 until I had 450 experience points. The game let me level up to 2 and then immediately to 3. So I'm not worried about not getting my upgrades when the time comes.

Can you tell me why this isn't a good idea?

2026 small rocks, and counting....

Its a good idea.
Make sure u do not get killed. Otherwise you may loose several levels of xp.

Just make sure to save frequently, and at least after every level up you receive (even if you don't use it).

I guess the only con I can see is that you're missing out on increasing your AC or AD which would help you kill whatever you're fighting faster. But maybe you're more patient than me :D

I've been playing a little while now. Had 2 games going. A level 29 and level 1. I was gaining experience on my 1 to use for next update and saved over my 29. Oops. It's ok though, I now have over 160,000 experience points to use on my level 1 character when update comes out. I have enough to get to level 20 as of now.

The Skill Point system is something Oskar wrote about in the Developers section (I'm not a developer myself, I just like to check it out to see what's coming up in new releases).

Its an added bonus to give us boosts after a certain number of level ups and should make the game more fun. Especially the increase drop% one.

Levels still change as they normally would, when you get enough XP. The skill points are just in addition to that, every 4th level up (or whatever number Oskar decides to go with).
