|Resting ||  Your character may rest only in an inn room (after having paid the innkeeper), out in the wild with a campfire and bedroll, or in special "free resting" locations. Free resting is provided by most associations, factions, and in-game properties. You may rest once every 15 minutes. Class benefits for resting exist for Rangers, Druids, and Barbarians. Perks for some classes affect this as well.

|Rest Tokens || All players now get a rest token. Spellcasters can cast spells on their rest tokens, so long as the spell is 1) non-hostile and 2) has a valid target of 'self'. These spells will then be cast on them when they finish resting so long as the spell is available to the spellcaster, appropriately "using up" the slots.

| Lethal vs Nonlethal Damage || There are various damage modes (subdual, sparring, blackout, and full damage) all accessible through the Crafting Menu or by using [https://wiki.efupw.com/index.php?title=Voice_Commands#Subdual Voice Commands]. Blackout mode sends a PC into a special "unconscious" area. You can then grab their unconscious body and take it with you somewhere. Familiars/Companions/Summons should be on the damage mode of their master. Note that summons switch to FD as they are being unsummoned, this is an unavoidable bug due to the game's engine, so be careful.

|'''DM XP''' ||DM XP can be awarded for many feats: Doing interesting 'things', pursue interesting stories, express your creativity, roleplay excellently and entertaining yourself and others. It is worth noting that DM XP is not a guarantee, but can also be earned if you persevere through a "spiced" quest. Merely being present for an important event may also earn you some XP. DM XP is either permanent, or normal, depending on the DM's decision.

|'''Rare Spawns'''||There are a variety of rare random monster spawns that can be quite rewarding to kill. Some are "Hero Spawns" (randomly named and titled NPCs), others are just very rare. These famed heroes among monsters may seek out experienced characters that are avoiding their lairs.

|-
|'''Calamity Spawns'''|| The Calamity system is centered on the Calamity Harbinger creature. It has an aura that will affect its allies in its domain in a variety of ways, for example:
* Buff them in unique ways
* When they die or damaged, the killer or damager might suffer debuffs or damage
* A combination of the above, and more
There's a very small chance creatures will spawn as Calamity Harbingers (same as how the hero system works, but the chance is smaller). Hero spawns have 1 out of 6 chance to spawn as Calamity Harbingers.
|-
|-
|'''Scavenging'''||There are a lot of areas that can be "scavenged," particularly with high Search skill. You might spontaneously find nice treasure just lying around or in rubble. Certain [[Rogue_Perks#Treasure_Hunter|perks]] may help grant additional bonuses.

|'''Brew Potion''' || Brewing potions has been streamlined and made more efficient in EFU. You can purchase a Potion Cauldron to create multiple potions (the number of potions you can brew at a time using the cauldron is determined by character level) from a single spell-cast or a Brewer's Elixir to check the maximum cost of brewing each potion. To use either, simply cast the spell onto the item. Brewing costs are randomized, but never exceed the Elixir's maximum, and are reduced by your Appraise. Potion Cauldrons are also affected by your level, determining how many potions you can brew at once. Paladins and Rangers can only brew one potion at a time, even with a potion cauldron.
