In this game, "In This Mountain and Sea," there is a very strong competitive attribute, and merit is a very important item in the competition. Today, I will introduce how to obtain merit in "In This Mountain and Sea." The level of merit in the game is a reflection of economic strength and effort. Each player has two types of merit: personal merit and world merit. The higher of the two is chosen as the final effective merit level.

The merit level can highlight a player's individual competitive strength, and it is also one of the conditions for purchasing contention equipment. Only with a higher level can stronger equipment be purchased. Let's first look at world merit. World merit increases weekly over time and is unrelated to personal gaming behavior. This is designed to accommodate many players who do not like to participate in competitions, so they are not left without any gains in this aspect. Personal merit, on the other hand, is the most crucial part for players, which is improved through accumulating merit points. Merit points are generally obtained through basic merit and reward merit.

Firstly, basic merit. Basic merit can be obtained based on performance when participating in various competitive activities and events. All activities seen in the competition, besides other rewards, also have merit rewards. It should be noted that there is a weekly cap on basic merit; once the cap is reached, no more can be obtained. If the cap is not reached in a week, half of the remaining portion will be carried over to the next week's cap. Although there is a remedy, it is still recommended to reach the weekly cap each week, as this is the best option.

Reward merit is obtained based on the settlement situation when the current competitive rank is settled every Monday at 4 AM. The competitive ranks mainly include Heavenly Pole Debate, Battlefield, and Cloud God Illusion. The highest of the three is selected as the settlement standard. Therefore, players can focus on one activity that suits them best for battle. Reaching a higher rank in this way will result in higher merit rewards.

After reading my introduction, everyone should now understand how to obtain merit in "In This Mountain and Sea." Once you gain merit and improve your level, the level only goes up and does not decrease. Therefore, even if you no longer participate in competitive activities later, you can maintain the current level. The level is reset with the season.
