In Season 6 and the Vessel of Hatred expansion, the way we experience Sanctuary, level through content, and earn Paragon Points will soon take place in a very different way. If you've heard any rumblings about significant changes coming to the game, this is one of those changes, and you are in the right place to learn more.
Leveling and Paragon Adjustments
Very simply put, the level cap is being lowered to Level 60, and there are a host of changes associated with this:
- Levels 1 to 50 — The traditional level journey is still intact. This is where we receive the bulk of our Skill Points. World Tiers are being replaced with Difficulties, but they will operate more or less the same in terms of progression. It's currently unknown how and if Capstone Dungeons are being updated to be in line with these changes, but it's only logical they too receive updates.
- Levels 50 to 60 — During these levels, players will earn 10 additional Skill Points, adding to the current total of 50.
- At Level 60 — Players will start earning Paragon Levels. Each Paragon Level provides a single Paragon Point, and the total number of Paragon Points is being increased from 200 to 300. This means that there will be 328 total Paragon Points, i.e., 300 from Leveling, 24 from Renown, and 4 from the Altars of Lilith. Additionally, Paragon Levels earned by your main character will be given to any alts on that same Realm once they reach level 50.

Characters above Level 50 will have all their experience-based Paragon Points converted to a Paragon Level. Here’s an example of this change:
