# Pumping figures

#### *Raising the level of a warrior is a special ritual of transferring strength, knowledge and experience to a warrior, requiring a large amount of Energy, resources and time. The more Energy and resources invested in a warrior, the sooner he can complete the ritual!*

The amount of resources needed to increase the level of figures, as well as to speed up the upgrade, can be viewed in the tables of characteristics in the "[Figures](/chess-zombies-wpeng/chess-pieces/pawn.md)" section.

#### With each new level, the figures increase their [health](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info/drop/random-ammo-characteristics-values/health.md), as well as [physical and magical attack](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info/drop/random-ammo-characteristics-values/attack-physical-magical.md).

Every 3 levels also increase: [mana and stamina](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info/drop/random-ammo-characteristics-values/mana-+-stamina.md), [physical and magical defense, evasion](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info/drop/random-ammo-characteristics-values/evasion-+-defense-physical-magical.md) and [health regeneration](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info/drop/random-ammo-characteristics-values/regeneration-+-speed.md).

#### In addition to increasing basic characteristics, with each new level, figures can learn more complex and effective skills (active and passive), as well as use more powerful [Ammunition](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/general-info.md).

#### For example:

If a level 5 [Mage Pawn](/chess-zombies-wpeng/chess-pieces/pawn/pawn-mage.md) is equipped with a full set of normal Level 3 [Armor](/chess-zombies-wpeng/ammunition/ammunition-types/armor.md), then the maximum health of this Pawn will increase by 242 HP and the total health of the Pawn will be: 405 HP + 242 HP = 647 HP

If we equip the same Pawn with a set of regular Level 5 Armor, then the maximum HP will be already 697.8 HP, which will give her an advantage of 1 turn during the duel.

#### Pumping different figures requires a different amount of resources and time, in addition, different classes of figures require different types of [gems](/chess-zombies-wpeng/gameplay/rpg/resources.md#vsego-v-igre-3-bazovykh-vida-resursov).
