# How to Change Experience Gain on an Enshrouded Server

Learn how to change experience gain on an Enshrouded server by adjusting combat, exploration, and mining XP multipliers to control how quickly players level up.

If your group is leveling too slowly, or flying through levels faster than you would like, Enshrouded lets you adjust experience gain from combat, mining, and exploration separately. This gives you control over progression without making every source of XP equally generous.

## Change Experience Gain

1. Navigate to your Nodecraft dashboard.
2. Locate your Enshrouded server and click **Manage**.
3. Stop the server.
4. Click **Game Settings** in the menu on the left.
5. Select the **Player** tab.
6. If your server is not already using Custom difficulty, click **Change Difficulty to Custom**. Individual experience settings only apply while the server is using Custom difficulty.
7. Under **Core Player**, adjust **Exploration Experience** to the amount you want. The default value is 1, and values can range from 0.25 to 2. A value of 2 doubles exploration and quest XP, while 0.5 cuts it in half.

8. Click **Submit** to save the Player settings.
9. Select the **Combat** tab.
10. Under **Combat & Equipment**, adjust **Combat Experience**. The default value is 1, and values can range from 0.25 to 2.

11. Click **Submit** to save the Combat settings.
12. Select the **Miscellaneous** tab.
13. Under **Resources**, adjust **Mining Experience**. The default value is 1, and values can range from 0 to 2. Setting it to 0 disables XP from mining, while 2 doubles it.

14. Click **Submit** to save the Miscellaneous settings.
15. Start the server again.

## How the Experience Settings Work

Each experience setting controls a different part of progression. Exploration Experience applies to exploring and completing quests, Combat Experience applies to XP earned through combat, and Mining Experience applies to XP earned while mining resources. Values above 1 increase XP gain, while values below 1 reduce it. You can change only one modifier or mix all three to create the progression pace you want.

## Final Thoughts

Separate experience modifiers let you tune progression around the activities your group enjoys. The best Enshrouded server hosting makes those choices easy to manage, and Nodecraft gives you the controls to set your own pace.
