Knowledge
Knowledge points in Fractured are used to teach player characters new talents and unlock new levels of proficiencies.
In Fractured Online, Knowledge Points can be seen as a meter of your personal progression, which you acquire over time while playing the game and especially by going to areas you have not been yet. Once you reach enough Knowledge Points, you will be promoted to the next rank. The rank will define how many Talent Points you can use and your maximum Proficiency in a school, which will determine how powerful your Skills of that school will be.

Earning
Earning Knowledge Points is possible in a few ways. You can find a complete list here: List of KP possibilities.
KP Sharing
Finding resources or exploring areas will always give the full amount of KP, no matter how many players are in your party. This is not true for killing monsters. In this case the number of players and the challenge rating of the monster will matter.The sharing of KP is based on a target amount of players which are expected to participate in a kill of a certain monster. The higher the difficulty of the monster, the higher the target number of expected players. For each player participating in the kill below the intended number, the KP gain will increase by 15%. For each player over that, it will decrease by 20%. Note that this the amount which everyone receives, it is not shared. So if 2 players take down a CR 5 monster which normally gives 100 KP per kill with a target number of 3 players, they will both receive 115 KP. In general, the sharing of KP is very generous as long as you don't go over the target number by more than 2 or 3 players. Note that the knowledge system is not a leveling system, so no matter what your rank is, you will always get the same amount of KP from a certain monster. This means that there is a fixed amount of kills you have to score on a certain mob to reach the full knowledge of it, regardless of your rank. After you reached that amount, you will get no more KP from it. The target number of party members and the kills required to reach full knowledge of the monster can be found in the following table:
| Challenge Rating | Required number of kills | Total KP Obtainable | KP per Kill | Target Number |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 20 | 800 | 40 | 1 |
| 2 | 40 | 2000 | 50 | 1 |
| 3 | 40 | 2400 | 60 | 2 |
| 4 | 40 | 2800 | 70 | 2 |
| 5 | 30 | 3000 | 100 | 3 |
| 6 | 30 | 3600 | 120 | 3 |
| 7 | 20 | 4000 | 200 | 4 |
| 8 | 20 | 4000 | 200 | 4 |
| 9 | 20 | 5000 | 250 | 5 |
Note that some particularly rare monsters require only half the amount of kills expressed in this table. In that case, you will find the indication "Requires Only Half of Kills: Yes" in the monster page of this wiki.
Talent Tree
At a superficial look, this is not much different from a canonical MMORPG talent system. The amount of Talent points you have access to depends on your Rank. The Talent Points you have – up to 60 – can then be assigned to the nodes of your Talent Tree. The latter is divided into six branches, each focused on one of the main character attributes, plus six “hybrid” branches.
Unlike other MMORPGs, Talent Points can be re-assigned as many times as needed during a Resting phase (by sitting down in front of a fire to change all your Talents to match the stats and abilities of your character). You can also handily save pre-defined configurations.
Ability Learning
Fractured Online's magical and combat abilities are obtained through discovery.
When you open your Character Abilities window for the first time, most of the abilities listed in each School are in an Undiscovered state (greyed out). To discover that skill, you have to study a creature which uses that skill. To study a creature you have to find where it lives and hunt it down until your knowledge of that creature reaches a specific threshold and you discover that skill. Beware though, as most abilities are only associated to a specific family of monsters, which reside in a specific continent of one of the three planets. Not all skills are available on all continents. Once you have discovered that skill, you can include it in any skill preset.
