Experience

Experience points (EXP) are awarded upon defeating Enemies in battle. Each party member has a threshold of experience needed before they can level up. Leveling up permanently increases a character's maximum HP, attack, defense, magic attack, magic defense, and amount of experience needed to get to the next level. This remains true until a character reaches level 60, after which they can no longer level up.

Distribution

Active party members who survived the encounter, meaning they did not end the encounter with 0 HP or while afflicted with Petrification, split the awarded EXP between one another. Any EXP that does not divide evenly is lost. For example if an encounter awards 100 EXP and three party members survived, then each gets 33 and the remaining point is lost. If two party members are alive the EXP is split in half so each gains 50, while a sole survivor collects all 100 EXP for themselves. Those who did not survive gain 0 EXP.

Inactive party members receive 50% (rounded down) of what any active member received. Keeping with the previous example, if all three party members survive they each get 33 EXP and then each inactive member would receive 16. With two surviving members getting 50, inactive ones would get 25. A single survivor getting 100 would mean every inactive member would collect 50 EXP. As a result, with enough inactive party members the group as a whole receives more experience with only a single survivor than if all three active members had lived.

The table below shows the total experience earned for the entire party relative to the amount seen in the post battle screen. For example, with one inactive member and one survivor the party as a whole earns 1.5x the amount displayed in the battle rewards screen. If three had survived with one inactive member, the party as a whole would only earn ~1.16x the amount.

		Inactive Members
		1	2	3	4
Survivors	1	1.5x	2x	2.5x	3x
	2	1.25x	1.5x	1.75x	2x
	3	~1.16x	~1.33x	1.5x	~1.66x

Level Up Thresholds

Each character has a specific amount of EXP they need to amass in order to reach a specific level, as shown in the chart below.

Trivia

1. Speed runners often let two party members die to funnel all EXP to one character, typically Shana or Miranda, so they can become far higher level than normal
