The Learning Point System in Gothic 1 Remake

In the Gothic 1 Remake, character growth requires trainers. When you level up, you receive 10 Learning Points (LP), but your stats do not increase automatically. You must seek out trainers in the camps—such as Diego in the Old Camp, Lares in the New Camp, or Cor Angar in the Swamp Camp—to spend your LP and raise your stats.

Because LP is a finite resource and there is no respec option, spending points blindly can make the late game extremely difficult. Planning your build helps you reach weapon requirements, master combat animations, and unlock powerful magic circles efficiently.

How to Plan Your Build

Base Level & LP pool

Select your target level to calculate your total available LP pool (10 LP per level).

Attributes (Strength, Dexterity, Mana)

Train your stats using the +1 and +5 buttons. Watch out for the scaling LP costs.

Permanent Boosters

Add permanent stat bonuses from potions and food. These increase your total stats without raising LP costs.

Combat Proficiencies & Magic Circles

Allocate LP to master One-Handed, Two-Handed, Bows, Crossbows, or Magic Circles.

Utility Skills

Learn thieving and crafting skills like Lockpicking, Pickpocketing, Sneak, Alchemy, and Hunting.

Optimizing Stats and Tiers

Stat training follows a non-linear scaling system where the LP cost increases at milestones (30, 60, 90, 120 base points). To maximize your build, use the +5 training trick: train to 29, 59, or 89 and then train +5 to get cheap stats that cross the threshold.

Additionally, save all permanent stat bonuses—from potions, herbs, and quest rewards—until after you have reached the trainer caps (usually 100). Consuming boosters early increases your base stats and prematurely pushes you into more expensive LP training brackets.
