Developing your character in Albion Online is a journey with many possibilities, and Learning Points can help you progress essentially five times as quickly. This guide shows how Learning Points work, how to earn them, and how to use them wisely to advance in the areas that matter to you.
What are Learning Points?
Learning points, (
LP for short) allow your character to
accelerate progress considerably on the
Destiny Board.

Once youve reached
at least 20% of progress in a given node (a mastery level of a specific skill), youll unlock the option to immediately complete that level by spending Learning Points. This is indicated by a line in the progress bar of a given node.
- Open the Destiny Board (Hotkey: B)
- Select the node you wish to learn
- Click Learn to spend the necessary Learning Points and complete that level

The amount of Learning Points needed to complete a node depends on the
amount of Fame that would otherwise be required to complete it. It also
scales with the type and level of the node you wish to complete. Each Learning Point counts for more Fame at higher levels on the Destiny Board.
To automatically learn a node without having to go through this process every time, you can activate
Auto-Learn. This will use Learning Points in the selected nodes once the 20% threshold has been reached. For this to work, you need to have Auto-Learn selected in both the node you wish to progress, as well as the main Auto-Learn option located at the
top-right of the Destiny Board. Here you can also see your current amount of Learning Points.
How do I get Learning Points?
Learning Points can be obtained in several ways:
- You automatically earn 30 LP every day by having active Premium status
- With Premium you receive 1 point every 48 minutes, whether youre online or not
- You will also receive 500 Learning Points the first time you purchase 7 days Premium or more for a character
- Mastery Packs contain different amounts of Learning Points, depending on the tier you purchase
- Non-Premium characters can earn 10 Learning Points by completing the daily Adventurers Challenge
- You can obtain Tomes of Learning by completing certain Albion Journal missions.
- These reward a certain amount of Learning Points when used, depending on their tier

There is
no limit to how many Learning Points you can accumulate, so you might want to save them for the right opportunity.
How can I use Learning Points?
Learning Points can be used to progress in most areas of your Destiny Board.
Combat
You can spend Learning Points on Weapon/Armor mastery to
unlock the ability to use
higher-tier items. If used on the specialization nodes on the outside of the Destiny Board, you can boost your
Item Power of each item.
Tip: Since combat Fame is comparatively easy to come by in Albion, you may want to consider using your Learning Points on other areas that you wish to progress first.
Crafting
Similarly to combat, crafting mastery allows you to
craft higher-tier items, while specialization reduces
Focus costs and increases the chances of crafting
higher quality items.
Tip: It is often recommended to use Learning Points to progress through lower-level crafting specializations, allowing you to unlock more valuable, higher-level crafting easily.
Refining
When it comes to
refining, the first level within a node unlocks the ability to refine a new tier of materials. After that, additional levels
increase your Focus efficiency.
Tip: If youre interested in refining, its often recommended to use Learning Points to increase your specialization and become a master refiner.
Gathering
Gathering nodes work like refining. Reaching the first level of a node will
unlock a new tier of gathering tools and gathering armor, while further levels within a node increase the gathering speed and yield of resources within that tier.
Tip: Gathering is a great place to use Learning Points early on. It is often recommended to use Learning Points
to unlock the first level of a new gathering tier, so that you can use better tools and gathering armor while starting to progress towards the next tier.
Learning Points
can not be used to boost progress through the
Adventurer and Reaver nodes, nor on
cooking, alchemy, and farming.
How you spend your Learning Points is ultimately up to you, and really depends on the activities you want to do in Albion. And remember, if at any point youre unsure, you can always hold onto your Learning Points for now and use them later. Happy learning!
