Still need to confirm if there even is anything such as 'numerical experience' in the NW. Ainz can't bring up his status screen, so he can't confirm that.

Note: Not having 'numerical experience' is different from not being able to learn. Ainz seems to be able to learn with a few notable limitations, such as NW Martial Arts. (Not that he's exhaustively tried... he's been busy running around for the most part.) A few of the Guardians have also showed some form of learning, but with no skills or levels attached. Hamsuke has managed to learn a Martial Art. As has Climb learned from Sebas. (Extraordinarily quickly, I might add.) And Enri has been steadily gaining levels...

It is interesting to note that Enri has repeatedly noted that the Goblins from the Horn are completely unable to learn detail oriented tasks, but function fine if used for pure unskilled labor. Similarly, the Death Knight that was training with Hamsuke is about the same.

But we still have no idea on the actual criteria for anything like 'Experience' of the sort that existed in Yggdrasil.

As for 'only' the Dragon Lords being able to use Wild Magic... I'm not so sure. (In it's pure, full power form possibly...)

The reason I'm a bit conflicted with that train of thought: Supposedly Wild Magic uses 'HP'... but my questions for that are:

Is there an actual number attached to that cost, or is it relative to the caster and the source of said 'HP'?

By HP, do you mean 'Life Force' or Yggdrasil 'Hit Points'?

Last of all... is it all or nothing or can it be recovered over time? Can the energy be stored over time... or can the cost be divvied up between sources?

If it's generic 'Life Force'... NW Martial Arts could fall under the blanket term for 'Wild Magic', even though they're fairly contained and low scale. (Note: Low scale, not low power... Using 'Invincible Fortress' Clementine was able to block and completely negate a full force swing from Ainz using completely disparate weaponry. That was more than -just a ability-... it completely negated even the kinetic energy from the weapons impacting. This is a completely opposite result from when she later was struggling with him in a straight strength contest while trying to break his grip... he was much stronger than she was based on strength alone.) They are somewhat flexible, moreso than Yggdrasil Abilities, and they've been shown to exhaust the user if used extensively while not having anything like a 'Cooldown Timer' or 'Daily Use Limit' attached.
