ON-icon-Champion System.png

The Champion System in the Elder Scrolls Online is a system of horizontal character development that complements the more vertical progression of Leveling and Skill development. The Champion System is unlocked when one of your characters reaches Veteran rank at Level 50. From that point on, experience points provide progression in Champion Points. Champion Points are required to wear Level 50 gear and use Level 50 consumables, and are used to unlock new abilities within the realms of the three Guardian Constellations.

The current cap is 3600, and you are unable to spend any points that you have earned above this cap. This means you are able to spend 1200 points in each of the three constellations.

Perks System[edit]

The new system needs to be documented following the system overhaul with Update 29
This page or section is incomplete. You can help by adding to it.
For more information, see the help files, the style guide, and this article's talk page.

Enlightenment[edit]

While you are Enlightened, experience gain is multiplied by four, effectively reducing the required XP for one Champion Point to a quarter of its original value. Once per day, you receive 400,000 XP of Enlightenment; after your Enlightenment is used up, you will return to requiring the standard amount of XP to earn a Champion Point. Enlightenment accumulates in a pool with a cap of 4,800,000 XP after twelve days. Each single experience point earned through normal gameplay expends four of the stored points in the Enlightenment pool; killing an enemy usually worth 76 XP will give you 304 XP, while completing a standard Level 50 quest will reward you with 29940 XP instead of 7485 XP.

Note that only Level 50 characters can be Enlightened, and the Enlightenment pool is shared across all Level 50 characters on your account.

The Craft tree grants you boons in sneaking, unlawful activity, and crafting.

Related Quests[edit]

Few quests relate directly to the Champion Points system, although many have level requirements.

  • Repeatable Honest Toil: Dedicate a day of honest work to the god of commerce.

Notes[edit]

  • The Champion Point system replaced the Veteran Rank progression system in Update 6.
  • In theory, to unlock all passive perks and the most expensive four active perks 793 points for Craft, 542 points for Fitness and 520 points for Warfare are needed. This however is based purely on the numbers in the above tables and neglects reachability (e.g. "Bastion" must be unlocked before "Arcane Alacrity" can be unlocked) of the perks, so the actual points needed ingame might be a bit higher.
  • Once you have access to Champion Points on an account, you will always have access to them, even if you delete all of your Level 50 characters.
