PvE perks

PvE perks are an extension of support perks focused on increasing your effectiveness in a variety of non-PvP situations.

You're able to select your first PvE perk at level 55 and additional ones every five levels thereafter. For every five points of Charisma you're able to choose one additional PvE perk, up to a maximum of nine PvE perks every five levels if your Charisma is 40. Most of the perks have multiple "ranks" which means that they can be selected multiple times, each rank granting the perk's full bonus. You can use the ~pve command to streamline the process when rerolling.

High level characters can additionally gain one PvE Master perk every 250 levels. PvE Master perks are limited to a single rank.

Note: Your PvE perks will be disabled if their number exceeds what your permanent Charisma would allow you to have.
