There are 999 levels of progression available for each perk, as well as individual perk "reset" to Prestige at 100 levels.
Progression up to level 100 is significantly simplified compared to levels 101-999. This allows newcomers to become more experienced faster and play at higher difficulty levels on par with others.
There are no level restrictions to enter any servers - you play where you feel comfortable and interested.

We strive to adhere to the classic game parameters, and perk characteristics at 100 levels are close to the standard maximum of 6 levels, which in practice will feel like 7-8 levels on the classic. Some classic parameters have been adjusted to make the game more comfortable and to narrow the gap between experienced players and newcomers.
Maximum (primary) perk bonuses are unlocked at 100 levels. Therefore, leveling up to 999 levels is optional and more for entertainment purposes.
Additional (minor) perk bonuses are unlocked at levels 101-999, but they do not affect balance and do not provide a significant advantage over players with level 100.
Prestige is the ability to level up any perk again after reaching level 100.
To unlock prestige, you will need to collect some Blood Points (BP), and then press the Prestige button under the requirements of the selected perk in the perk list menu. Keep in mind that the unlock button appears only after the start of the match and if you have reached level 100.
Prestige perk bonuses (the list may change over time):
- A more "stylish" perk icon display.
- Reduced fees for selling weapons to trader.
- A small percentage increase to weapon reload speed and running speed.
