Ability Points
As you complete more challenges, the ability points (AP) for your character increase. In the future, you'll be able to use these points to purchase abilities which will unlock more parts of the game, grant your character more Abilities, and increase your attack power in Battles.
Whenever you complete a challenge and submit it to a queue, you'll be asked to select your character in the form. When you do so, input the AP you expect to earn from that challenge in the Points box of the character widget.
The total accumulated AP determines your rank. See below
Amount of AP earned
For battles
- Your character earns 5-7 AP. See the Battles page for details.
For portals, quests, and campaigns
- Your character earns 7 AP (ability points). These are more finished and challenging pieces and thus earn more AP.
For non-challenge creations
- Your character can also earn AP when you create art or Writing of your character that isn't for our regular challenges. See Non-challenge Character art
