1	Copper	1	×1	1
2	Iron	10	×1.6	2

Perks and marks

Every 5 levels a skill offers you a perk. At 75, 90 and 99 it earns a mark: a quarter, half and all of its skill's permanent bonus (gathering: +10% speed; processing: 10% chance to save materials; crafting: better quality odds; fighting: +5% damage; Vitality: +5% max HP).

Every pet you own adds +2% XP to every skill. Bones, the Scholar upgrade and live events add more, and a streak of work gives up to +25%.

XP table
