XPs are familiar to Westward players because you have always needed them to purchase upgrades in the store. Those types of XPs work the same way in this game. They are visible in the top right hand corner of the screen. Each time you finish a quest, do something for the first time, or level up a citizen you will get experience points for upgrades. New to this game is Experience Points and levelling up your characters. It is absolutely necessary to level up characters and there are some ways to do it more quickly.

Employed characters earn XPs every cycle. These are just examples and the list is not complete. So to level up quickly employ the person you want to level up at the high level building there is available. This would be anything but a farm for a peasant, an advanced building for a Craftsman, an Armory for a Soldier or Knight, and an Archery Camp for an Archer.

Then you are going to concentrate on that person and have them do all of the odd jobs. In other versions of Westward it was handy to have the Hero do the odd jobs because he couldn't work, but in this game you want the character you want to level up doing as much work as possible.

The XPs you need to upgrade are limited in the beginning of the game so you don't want to go crazy buying stuff in the store.
