	'''IMPORTANT''': When using a [[Book of Achievement]] to [[Levels\|level]] up a new [[Character]], be very careful to distribute [[Skill Points]] as you go. The [[Skill Points]] queue only holds a maximum of 99 at a time, so it is possible to use the book too many times and exceed this limit. If that happens, you end up with fewer [[Skill Points]] to distribute overall for that [[Character]] because any overage is immediately lost.

			==Recovering a Broken Book==
			If you begin the Reroll process and start to level up the new [[Character]], but accidentally level up with ''other'' [[XP]] that's not from the [[Book of Achievement]], the situation is called a "Reroll Fail" and the book becomes broken. What do you do?

			Example: you leveled up to 60. Good job! Now you want to Reroll into a different build with other stats and different perks. You drop gear, grab 10k caps and delete the [[Character]] at a base, and get a new level 60 [[Book of Achievement]]. You register your new [[Character]] and go to that base and get the book. You want to use your [[IN]] [[Implants\|implant]], so you stop using the book at [[Levels\|level]] 30, and head to [[San Francisco]] with 100k [[Caps]] for the surgery. On your way back, you encounter some [[Floater]]s. You know what to do! Kill 'em! You've been killing monsters for days now as you level, so it's almost natural reflex to say ''yes'' to that encounter and grab some more [[XP]]. You do that some more times and...OOPS! You leveled up to 31, and now you've just caused a problem: you try to use your [[Book of Achievement]] again to finish leveling and it doesn't work, because it's next chapter takes a [[Character]] from 30 to 31, and you're already 31. It won't skip a level, so your book is semi-broken.

			All is not lost, though you've created an inconvenience for yourself. You can spend another 10k [[Caps]] and start the process again, get a new [[Book of Achievement]] that's only level 31 and use it to reach level 30, skipping its last level. Then switch books to the "broken" one that goes from 30 to 60 (from our example). This will mean you only lose one level's worth of [[XP]], and not all of those remaining [[Levels]].
