Levels on Soul Caliber IV

Ok, I can find no information on this anywhere.

What is the top level for a character in Soul Caliber IV?

What does leveling up your character give you in Soul Caliber IV?

Thanks

Nothing.

Level cap is 9, and it's only there for weapons. There's not much use for it beyond that, other than the honors.

Ah, that's kind of lame. So, the character base for the powers (power, gauge, etc) only go up with gear? They can't go up with levels or honors? If not, that's really dissapointing.

Really, really disappointing...

Yah 9 is the limit but doesnt it allow you to use more powerful skill settings for gauge, boost, impact and all that... if you dont get to level nine you wont be able to get the good skills..
