# Leveling System Overview

## 🎯 Introduction

The Nova AI Leveling System is a progression-based reward system that encourages user engagement. By using bot commands, users earn experience points (XP) that contribute to their level. As users level up, they unlock new rank titles, showcasing their dedication and activity.

## 🧩 Core Components

The leveling system consists of several interconnected components:

### 📊 XP Acquisition

Users earn XP through various interactions with the bot:

| Activity Type      | XP Range | Probability |
| ------------------ | -------- | ----------- |
| Basic Commands     | 5-15 XP  | 75-100%     |
| Economy Actions    | 10-25 XP | 75%         |
| Special Activities | 15-50 XP | 50-75%      |

XP is awarded based on:

* Command complexity
* User engagement value
* Random chance (probability factor)

### 📈 Level Progression

The leveling system uses an exponential curve for progression:

* **Base XP Requirement**: 50 XP (Level 1 → 2)
* **Scaling Factor**: 1.5x per level
* **Formula**: `XP_required = previous_level_XP * 1.5`

This creates a challenging but achievable progression path that rewards long-term engagement.

### 👑 Rank Titles

As users level up, they earn increasingly prestigious rank titles:

| Rank Title      | Level Range | Visual Style   |
| --------------- | ----------- | -------------- |
