Experience Scalars

• Players will have an Experience Scalar that adjusts how much Experience they earn towards the Redline System when earning Gold at locations
• Players can have at most a 100% Experience Scalar for the Redline system

• If a player has unlocked 30 Mastery Chain Links on their account, they will have a 100% Experience Scalar for the Redline system

• Alternatively, a player can increase their Experience scalar by 33% for each unique Aspect on their account that they have reached Tier 15 with
• If players have multiple characters that have reached Tier 15 for the same aspect, that specific Aspect will not count multiple times

Redline Upgrades

• Each character on an account has full access to all Redline Points earned on the account (i.e. each character can spend the full amount available independently)
• Character Redline Upgrade selections are stored on a per Echo basis; switching Echoes will switch a character's Redline Upgrade selections

Aspect Tier Limit

• The Aspect Tier Limit upgrade allows players to unlock Aspect Tier Levels 16-20 for Aspects
• Players will still be responsible for paying Cores/Distillations/Triumphs needed to upgrade the Tier level on each Aspect they wish to raise
• Players will not be required to earn any Aspect Experience for Tier Levels 16-20, and can immediately upgrade them once they've raised their Aspect Tier Limit to that Tier Level amount
• Players can only purchase this upgrade if they have at least one Aspect of Tier 15
