 ====== Roleplay Points (RPP) System ======
-__TOC__
+Roleplay Points (RPP) are a passive form of progression in trace/ALTER. Every day, players get an RPP chest that consumes their activity to increase rewards, granting them stat and skill points equal to the RPP gained. Aside from that players may also gain it from studying lore books, or get bonus RPP for creating their character in hardcore mode. Bonus RPP does not count towards GPP conversion.
-Roleplay Points (RPP) are awarded every 23 hours from your reward chest, based on your character’s Activity %. The maximum reward is earned at 100 % Activity. Any Activity % above 100 will be subtracted from your total before calculating RPP.

 ===== 4. Soft Cap Details =====
 To prevent runaway growth, the RPP-per-check rate reduces at soft-cap breakpoints:
-  * 0 ≤ RPP < 50 → 5 RPP/check
+  * 0 ≤ RPP < 100 → 5 RPP/check
-  * 50 ≤ RPP < 100 → 4 RPP/check
+  * 100 ≤ RPP < 200 → 4 RPP/check
-  * RPP ≥ 100 → 3 RPP/check
+  * 200 < 300 → 3 RPP/check
 Additionally, once you have at least 3 RPP, you receive a one-time boost of +6 RPP per check (at 100 % Activity) until you match the server average RPP.

 ===== 6. Notes & FAQs =====
-  * **What happens if Activity > 100 %?**
-    Any surplus Activity beyond 100 % is removed before converting to RPP.
   * **Do RPP decay over time?**
     No—RPP are permanent; only the per-check rate soft-caps as you accumulate more.
