Tip of the week: 7 Days to Die – Skill Points are important when tuning the abilities of your character as you level up. A great way to track and plan the progression of your player is to use the perks calculator website. http://www.jacksay.com/perks/ allows you to set your level or what level you are wanting to plan for and then spend the points in a similar interface to the game. This helps you to reach particular abilities by certain levels to maximize your player’s strengths.
