'''Reroll''' is a feature that allows you to recreate a character so that its [[Levels]] are retained for reuse by a new character. When you Reroll, you delete an existing character which produces a [[Book of Achievement]] in its place. Then re-register a new character with the same or different name, choose the '''SPECIAL'''s, and the tag skills. Once he's in the game, get the [[Book of Achievement]] and "use" it to reclaim the [[Level]]s of the deleted character. This will allow you to re-distribute new [[Skill Points]] and to choose new [[Perks]] as you go, one chapter of the book at a time.

The <code>'''~reroll'''</code> command allows you to remake your character while retaining its current [[level]].
  
'''NOTE''': If you use a character with [[Intelligence]] 10 to level up to level 30, and plan to Reroll him and use his [[Book of Achievement]] on a new character with only [[Intelligence]] 1 for example, you do not get the same amount of [[Skill Points]]. You only get the same amount of [[Levels]], and whatever [[Skill Points]] the ''new'' character gets from ''his'' [[Intelligence]].

Rerolling lets you reset your [[SPECIAL]], [[class]], [[skills]], [[perks]], [[traits]], etc.
  
Rerolling is a popular way to more quickly level up additional characters using a "Leveling Build", with [[Swift Learner]] and [[Loner]], to reach a target level.  
+
Any [[War Event stat]]s or [[mutations]] you have installed and skill [[books]] you have read will be returned to your inventory. [[Implants]] will also be placed back in your inventory, alongside free implant installation tokens.
  
==Words of Warning==
+
Character rerolling is not to be confused with [[Armor perks#Rerolling|armor]]/[[Weapon perks#Rerolling|weapon]] perk rerolling.
*Rerolling only works if the deleted character had 10k caps in his inventory at the time of deletion.
 
*Rerolling a character is a permanent and irreversible decision, though you can Reroll a character more than once
 
*Rerolling a character gives back that character's [[Levels]] only.
 
*The new character gets a new ID, and the original character's ID is lost
 
*[[Support perks]] are lost, so the new character will need to get some of them again
 
*[[Profession|Professions]] are lost
 
*[[Blueprints]] which the character learned are lost
 
*Surgically installed [[Implants]] are lost
 
*Skill [[Books]] read by the deleted character are lost
 
*[[Items]] in the deleted character's inventory are lost
 
*[[Followers]] are lost
 
*[[Reputation]] gets reset
 
*Kill counts and quest progress are lost
 
*Faction membership is lost. The deleted character will be automatically disassociated with whatever faction he was in. This can cause major problems if he was the leader of a faction. Leadership can be claimed by someone else in that faction if there is at least one member there promoted beyond "Recruit".
 
*All [[Tent]], [[Safe House]], and faction base map markers get erased, although the tents themselves do not get removed. To see them again, maps need to be created in advance of the Reroll, and left where the new character can find them.
 
*Discovered public locations that are hidden by default, like train stations, will be hidden again.  
 
  
==To Use==
+
== Procedure ==
To Reroll a character, use the '''~deleteself''' [[Commands|command]] while standing in a tent/house/base and while having at least proper count of [[caps]] in his or her (or it) pocket (form: your character's level * 1000, f.ex: 15 level character requires 15,000 of [[caps]] in pocket during reroll) in that character's inventory. Wait 3 minutes for full logout, or deletion does not happen. Be careful! The '''~deleteself''' [[Commands|command]] permanently deletes a character.
 
  
If done correctly, you will see the following text message:
+
To reroll a character, use the '''~reroll''' [[Commands|command]] while in a [[base]].
  
'''INFO: You will receive [[Book of Achievement|Achievement Book]] after your character disappears from game.'''
+
Rerolling has the base cost of <code>your [[level]] * 1000 [[currency]]</code>.
  
After that character is deleted, a [[Book of Achievement]] will appear on the ground in that same hex where the deleted character was last standing. That book can then be used on a new Level-1 character to gain the levels of your deleted character. The book will disappear when used completely. Obviously, it can't be used on more than one character.
+
However, if your [[Barter]] skill is at 150+ (or 130+ for characters with the [[Bloody Mess]] trait), rerolling will only cost you 10,000 [[currency]], regardless of your level.
  
'''Note''' The only way this works is if the deleted character is higher than Level 1, and the new character is ''exactly'' level 1.
+
Characters that are still in [[Rockside]] can be rerolled for free.
  
The new Level-1 character picks up the [[Book of Achievement|book]] and "Uses" it. This instantly levels him up once. Distribute [[Skill Points]] and use the book again over and over until the new character has all of the [[Levels]] of the deleted character. You do this one level at a time, and choose [[Perks]] along the way.
+
== Important information ==
  
==Reported Mistakes and Common Errors==
+
*Rerolling will remove '''ALL''' the currency from your character's inventory. Make sure you only have the minimum necessary amount.
Many players have made mistakes in the process of '''Rerolling'''. GameMasters likely cannot help you in any way, so pay attention to details when '''Rerolling'''. Here is a list of the common problems - please try to avoid these mistakes:
+
*If you need to leave your base before you finish reading your [[#Book of Achievement|leveling book]], '''leave it in the base''' where it's safe. It won't be possible to get it back if you lose it!
 +
*You can gain extra skill points per [[Books|book]] via temporary [[SPECIAL]] buffs. Take [[Mentats]], [[Roentgen Rum]] and equip [[armor]] with the [[Bonus Intelligence]] armor perk on it. If your character qualifies for the [[Educated]] support perk, get it as soon as possible.
 +
*Make sure to choose a [[level perk]] every 3 levels! Perks not chosen are perks lost.
 +
*If you gain a [[level]] other than by reading your [[#Book of Achievement|leveling book]] while there are still levels left in the book, the book will be rendered unusable and you will have to reroll again.
 +
<br>
 +
'''IMPORTANT:''' if you reroll into the [[Chosen One]] class, stop your reroll at level 30, leave your [[#Book of Achievement|leveling book]] in your base, and go to Klamath to become the [[Chosen One]]. Once you do, pick your extra perks right away or they will be lost.

'''IMPORTANT:''' if you reroll into the [[Cyborg]] class, do '''not''' install implants with tokens or currency or they will be lost after your next reroll!

For a smooth rerolling experience, follow these steps:

*Whenever you log out or delete a character, it will remain in-game in logout mode for a few minutes, inactive. During this time, make sure nobody kills the character or steals the 10k caps from his inventory.

'''IMPORTANT''': When using a [[Book of Achievement]] to level up a new character, be very careful to distribute [[Skill Points]] as you go. The Skill Points queue only holds a maximum of 99 at a time, so it is possible to use the book too many times and exceed this limit. If that happens, you end up with fewer Skill Points for that character because the overage is immediately lost. The same thing happens when you're leveling a character in the normal way - distribute Skill Points before that pile up too much. Don't let the Skill Point queue reach 99 as you level up!

Rerolling interface with some free rerolls from daily quests

The ~reroll command allows you to remake your character while retaining its current level.

Rerolling lets you reset your SPECIAL, class, skills, perks, traits, etc.

Any War Event stats or mutations you have installed and skill books you have read will be returned to your inventory. Implants will also be placed back in your inventory, alongside free implant installation tokens.

Character rerolling is not to be confused with armor/weapon perk rerolling.

Procedure

To reroll a character, use the ~reroll command while in a base.

Rerolling has the base cost of your level * 1000 currency.

However, if your Barter skill is at 150+ (or 130+ for characters with the Bloody Mess trait), rerolling will only cost you 10,000 currency, regardless of your level.

Characters that are still in Rockside can be rerolled for free.

Important information

  • Rerolling will remove ALL the currency from your character's inventory. Make sure you only have the minimum necessary amount.
  • If you need to leave your base before you finish reading your leveling book, leave it in the base where it's safe. It won't be possible to get it back if you lose it!
  • You can gain extra skill points per book via temporary SPECIAL buffs. Take Mentats, Roentgen Rum and equip armor with the Bonus Intelligence armor perk on it. If your character qualifies for the Educated support perk, get it as soon as possible.
  • Make sure to choose a level perk every 3 levels! Perks not chosen are perks lost.
  • If you gain a level other than by reading your leveling book while there are still levels left in the book, the book will be rendered unusable and you will have to reroll again.


IMPORTANT: if you reroll into the Chosen One class, stop your reroll at level 30, leave your leveling book in your base, and go to Klamath to become the Chosen One. Once you do, pick your extra perks right away or they will be lost.
IMPORTANT: if you reroll into the Cyborg class, do not install implants with tokens or currency or they will be lost after your next reroll!

For a smooth rerolling experience, follow these steps:

1. Put the exact amount of currency (caps work best because they're the cheapest) that you need into your inventory
2. Use the ~reroll command by typing it in the chat
3. Choose your new SPECIAL and traits and press the "Init Reroll!" button
3a.You should now have all of your implants, books, and WE stats, as well as a Book of Achievement in your inventory
4. Before you start reading, use Mentats and Roentgen Rum to buff your Intelligence
5. Read all of your Outdoorsman books and Science books
5a.For faster reading, use ctrl + left click
6. If your base Intelligence is at least 8, drop everything safely in your base (ctrl + D) and get the Educated support perk. Your Science skill must be ≥ 100%.
7. Return to base and start reading your Book of Achievement, carefully choosing a level perk every 3 levels
8. Take your class perk asap; it will allow you to gain all of the remaining levels with a single click
9. Type ~pve to conveniently select your PvE perks using a dialog window

The diary of an experienced wastelander.

The Book of Achievement is generated whenever a character is rerolled. Only the character whose reroll created the book can use it, going up by one level each time.

Once the book restores your final level, it disappears.

If you level up during the process of reading the book by any means other than the book itself, you will need to reroll again. This has a good chance of happening during the trip to New Adytum to get the Educated support perk; to prevent it, enable the "safe travel" option to disable XP gain from random encounter detection (after you press Esc, it's on page 1 in the "misc" tab). Another common pitfall is reading Cat's Paw Issue 5 by mistake. Be careful!

In the unlikely scenario that you end up one level below what you were at before the reroll, use the First Aid skill on yourself and the issue will be fixed.
