Level
Levels in Deadlock signify how many total 
Souls a hero has gathered. Levels increase a hero's power by granting rewards at specific souls-gathered thresholds. A hero's level is most appropriately referred to by the number of souls they have gathered, which is displayed at all times for all players.
Leveling Up
Leveling up in Deadlock is based on a hero's total gathered souls. Level up rewards vary from level to level and are a mix of 
Ability Unlocks, 
Ability Points, and 
Boons (Power Increases). The first three ability unlocks can only be used on non-ultimate abilities. When the fourth ability unlock is obtained at 3k it can be used to learn the hero's ultimate ability.
Reward breakdown
All heroes level up at the same souls-gathered thresholds. The following table details the rewards given at each threshold.

Ability Points
Ability points are obtained in various ways but primarily as level up rewards. Each ability has three levels, requiring one, two, and then five ability points to unlock. It is possible to spend ability points in any order, including saving them to spend on an ultimate ability or for the final level of an ability costs five ability points to unlock. Fully leveling up all of a hero's abilities requires a total of thirty-two ability points.
Boons from Patron
Boons (power increases) serve to increase the base attributes of the hero. Level Up occasionally grant Boons from Patron . The base attributes that are improved by Boons are: base bullet damage, base melee damage, and base health. Each hero gains unique amounts of base stats from their Boons. The differences in these power increase profiles can dictate which heroes are more powerful in the early stages of a game and which heroes become powerful in the late game.
