Level 5 is the Loftia demo’s proficiency cap. Reaching it does not by itself indicate a broken skill or a missing unlock. Early Access is planned to let proficiencies progress further than this demo limit.
What reaching the cap means
The demo is an opening slice of Loftia, with a deliberately limited progression range. Once you reach level 5 in a proficiency, the confirmed next step for progression beyond the cap is Early Access. There is no documented demo quest, payment or hidden station that removes it.
Early Access proficiency preview; progression beyond level 5 is outside the demo cap.
The Early Access feature description names activities such as Farming, Crafting, Cooking and Fishing, with further proficiency progression and Perks. It does not provide a confirmed final level cap, a complete Perk chart or exact experience requirements for every level.
Continue with other demo goals
The cap does not mean the entire demo ends immediately. Within the content available to you, you can still work on your home, collect resources, complete available tasks, take part in Adventures and contribute to World Projects. Which tasks remain depends on your character’s progress.
Do not treat another skill’s unfinished objectives as a way to force this proficiency past its demo limit. The useful distinction is between activities you can still do and additional levels the current build does not offer.
Carry your progress into Early Access
Demo character progression, completed quests and collected items are intended to carry forward. Link your Loftia website account in-game using your email address to preserve that progress. This carryover does not establish that experience earned after reaching the cap is secretly banked for later; no such conversion rule is confirmed.
