Ranks and experience | Introduction DB: Xenoverse Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In the beginning, your character will be weak. To make him more powerful, you have to keep getting a higher level and winning fights. Reaching a level gives you three attribute points, which improve the character's abilities. You'll get experience from any kind of fight - main story, challenges and fights against other players. The box on the right shows the "challenges" you can complete during the fight - using an ability / performing an attack a number of times, finishing the fight with low damage, defeating most enemies or defeating the last enemy with a finisher. Every task has a base value of given experience, depending on the difficulty. Completing more difficult tasks will get you a higher rank. The ranks are as follows: Z, S, A, B, C, D, where no rank equals failure. The rank represents your skills and affects the money (Zeni) you get for a victory.
You will receive money and experience even if you fail, but it will be just a fraction of the reward. You're also rewarded for retaking the challenges - you'll get random extra awards (capsules, equipment, skills). When you retake a challenge, you'll receive the most if you get a better rank than before.
