How does the Oblivion Remastered leveling system work?

The Elder Scrolls IV:
Oblivion Remastered
Just pulled an unexpected slide into our direct messages, and as any rational fan of The Elder Scrolls would be, you might be contemplating whether it’s time to revisit that Sneak skill at level 100.

You may also be curious about whether Bethesda
modders
) have ultimately graced us with a system that doesn’t penalize innovation. Spoiler alert: they did. Oblivion Remastered introduces a long-overdue revamp to the leveling mechanism, replacing the former spreadsheet-like simulation with something genuinely enjoyable.

Let’s dissect the revamped leveling system in Oblivion Remastered.

Oblivion’s updated leveling system, explained

Set aside all your previous notions of “efficient leveling.” Here’s how Oblivion Remastered turns things upside down:

• 
  Specialization and setup
  
  You select one Specialization from Combat, Magic, or Stealth, along with two preferred attributes, and also pick seven Major Skills. All remaining skills will be considered Minor.
• 
  Skill points
  
  Major Skills begin 20 points higher and progress more quickly, but
  
  all
  
  Skills earn experience points. No effort goes to waste.
• 
  Leveling up
  
  : You gain experience points from every skill. When the experience bar completes one cycle,
  
  sleep in a bed
  
  To advance your skills (indeed, even if it’s just for one hour).
• 
  Attribute points
  
  : You now get
  
  12 digital points for each leveling up
  
  , and you can spend them on
  
  up to 3 characteristics with
  
  max
  
  5 points per attribute
  
  per level-up but
  
  Luck costs 4 points
  
  For merely one stage, with just a single upgrade allowed when leveling up.
• 
  Retroactive Stats
  
  Health from Endurance has a retrospective effect – no longer do you need to rush to maximize it at the beginning.

It remains Oblivion, yet without the training wheels and with freedom reinstated. You have the liberty to construct as you please, progress at your own pace, and no longer worry about that accidental single Acrobatics point you obtained back at level 3.
