As you progress, you will also increase important stats such as Max Health, Max Mana, Max Stamina, and Max Lives. Higher levels can also improve equipment and resource quality, giving you better options during future runs.

Leveling in Crimson Moon steadily opens up more of the game’s progression systems. Early levels focus on basic stats and hub services, while later levels begin improving equipment quality, Flask potency, shop prices, enemy variety, and other systems.
Some particularly important milestones include Level 2 for the Merchant and Blacksmith, Level 4 for the Boon system and Rare Blacksmith upgrade, Level 6 for Uncommon+ drops, Level 11 for Rare+ drops, and Level 13 for Epic+ drops.
By Level 15, you have also unlocked several quality-of-life improvements, including higher Flask potency and reduced purchase prices.
The level system is a big part of permanent progression in Crimson Moon. Even when a particular run does not go exactly as planned, gaining character levels still gives you permanent improvements that carry into future runs.
If you’re working toward a specific build, it is worth paying attention to the levels that unlock new Boons, equipment upgrades, Angel-related abilities, and improved drop quality. As your character level increases, your overall options continue to expand, making future runs more flexible and rewarding.
