Editing a character level

Editing a character's level is a quick way to unlock the flea market and to fill a part of the requirements to get access to higher grade items from the traders.

To do so:

• Open your character profile (%game%\server\user\%profileId%) with your code editor.
• Search for the first line with the Experience property.

• Go to the EFT Wiki Character skills page, scroll down to the "Experience" section and copy the Cumulative Total value of desired level from the table.

Note

Remember to remove the commas or it will break the file formatting. If you copied 3,873,658 from the table, it should be writtent as 3873658 in the file.

• Replace the experience value from the file with the one copied from the table.
• Save the file.

On the next server startup the character will be at the desired level.

Note

A character's level, in Escape From Tarkov, is not tied to the "Level" property. Instead, it's derived from the amount of experience it has. As such, a character with 781760 experience points will be level 30.

Below is an example with before/after screenshots of the file for a character going from level 1 to level 50.

With this done, your character should now have gained a few levels and you are ready to proceed with the next step, which is editing the characterskill levels.
