# Terry Skills

Every Terry comes with a set of core attributes that define its long-term potential.

### 🎯 What are Skills?

Skills influence how fast you progress, how many rewards you earn, and how powerful your Terry becomes as it levels up.

Skills matter because they **scale your XP, LP and credit earnings**, making progression both strategic and personalised.

***

### 🧩 How Skill Points Work

Each Terry starts with a number of **base skill points**, determined by its [rarity](https://whitepaper.werate.io/~/revisions/aMBNLsLcP38hQJkHvR9E/using-the-werate-app/terries/rarity-tiers). These points are [randomly distributed](https://whitepaper.werate.io/~/revisions/aMBNLsLcP38hQJkHvR9E/using-the-werate-app/terries/skill-point-allocation) across the four attributes:

* **Ambition**
* **Focus**
* **Luck**
* **Influence**

No two Terries are identical: higher rarity provides a *wider skill range*, creating more powerful starting builds.

As a Terry levels up, it earns additional skill points that you can freely allocate to customise its strengths.

***

### 📦 Base Skill Points (by Rarity)

When a Terry is created, it receives a random number of starting skill points within the ranges below.

| **Terry Rarity** | **Base Skill Points** | **Max Levels** | **Max Skills** |
| ---------------- | --------------------- | -------------- | -------------- |
| **Basic**        | 4                     | 20             | 24             |
| **Common**       | 20–40                 | 40             | 80             |
| **Rare**         | 30–60                 | 60             | 120            |
| **Epic**         | 50–80                 | 80             | 160            |
| **Legendary**    | 70–100                | 100            | 200            |
| **Mythical**     | 90–120                | 120            | 240            |
| **Ultimate**     | 110–140               | 140            | 280            |

> **Note:** Basic Terries are soulbound starter avatars and cannot be traded.

### 📈 Leveling Up & Earning New Skill Points

Each time your Terry reaches a new level, it earns **+1 skill point**.

You choose how to allocate it — optimising your Terry for XP gain, LP farming, credits, or hybrid builds.

Higher rarity = higher max level = more total customisation.

### 🧠 Attribute Breakdown

| **Attribute** | **Effect**                                                                                 |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Ambition**  | Increases XP gained from eligible actions, allowing your Terry to level up faster          |
| **Focus**     | Boosts LP earned from full, high-quality reviews (sub-ratings, written review, photos)     |
| **Luck**      | Grants a chance to trigger a **50 percent LP bonus** on eligible actions                   |
| **Influence** | Increases **credit rewards** from quests, Patron benefits, and other credit-based earnings |

***

### 🔧 Why Skills Matter

Skills define your progression style:

* Want to level fast? → **Invest in Ambition**
* Want maximum leaderboard impact? → **Focus + Luck**
* Want strong passive rewards? → **Influence**
* Want a balanced Terry? → Spread points across attributes

As we expand the ecosystem, more mechanics will increasingly interact with these four core attributes, making early optimisation meaningful.

If you want, I can now generate the next Terry page: **Rarity Tiers**, **Leveling Up**, **Upgrade Logic**, or **Traits & Customisation**.

Each Bohemian has **six attributes** that define its ability to earn, regenerate, explore, and level up. These attributes have a **starting range** and a **maximum potential**, both of which depend on the Bohemian's **tier**.

* **Attribute Points (APs)** are randomly generated for each new Bohemian and only become visible **after purchase**. This does not apply to **secondary market sales**, where APs are fully visible before purchase.
* The **starting AP range** varies by tier, from **6 APs for a Basic Bohemian** to **100 APs for a Legendary Bohemian**. ([cfr. Attribute Point Allocation](/~/revisions/aMBNLsLcP38hQJkHvR9E/using-the-werate-app/terries/skill-point-allocation.md))
* Each attribute also has a **maximum AP limit of 80** that can be reached through leveling. This limit is the same for each raririty.

## Attribute Breakdown

| Attribute   | Effect                                                     |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| Stamina     | Decreases Bohemian Energy cost                             |
| Flexibility | Boosts earnings in venues outside a Bohemian's Speciality  |
| Fortune     | Increases credit earnings when placing reviews             |
| Creativity  | Enhances effectiveness of comprehensive and repeat reviews |
| Ambition    | Increases experience gain for faster leveling              |
| Luck        | Grants a chance for bonus rewards                          |

## Attribute Effects & Formulas

### **Stamina**

The **Stamina** attribute plays a crucial role in optimizing a Bohemian's **Energy Cost** when performing a check-in.

**Formula:**\
`Energy Cost = 0.103`125\*`(1 - 0.003125 * AP)`

***

### **Flexibility**

A high **Flexibility** score allows a Bohemian to earn more credits when visiting venues outside its designated **Bohemian Speciality (BS)**.

**Formula:**\
`Points Earned = Weighted Points × (Base Congruence Factor + Flexibility Dampener)`

* **Flexibility Dampener**: AP × 0.3%
* High Flexibility is ideal for users who prefer using a limited number of Bohemians across diverse locations.

***

### **Fortune**

The **Fortune** attribute increases credit earnings when placing reviews.

**Formula:**\
`Credit earnings = 100% + (AP × 0.5%)`

* Essential for players looking to compete at high levels and maximize credit accumulation.

***

### **Creativity**

A high **Creativity** attribute enhances rewards for **comprehensive reviews** and revisits to the same venue.

**Formula:**\
`Review Reward Multiplier = 100% + (AP × 0.2%)`

* Ideal for users who frequently visit their favorite locations and want to maximize their review impact.

***

### **Ambition**

The **Ambition** attribute accelerates a Bohemian’s **leveling speed** by boosting experience gain.

**Formula:**\
`Experience Gain = 100% + (AP × 0.5%)`

* Perfect for users aiming for **top leaderboard rankings and social recognition**.

***

### **Luck**

Luck is a **probabilistic attribute** that increases the chance of earning bonus rewards.

**Formula:**\
`Bonus Chance = AP × 0.25%`

* **Bonus Value**: 50% additional points.
* Future updates will introduce **unique in-game items and consumables** tied to Luck.
* Ideal for users who enjoy **risk-based rewards and surprise bonuses**.
