Hejo all gamers???
Am I silly, do I need a new hand calculator or are the Hyper EXP Rates just a big lie? b:cry

Actually I have Hyper x12 and kill the Bloodpaint Shamans on the Public Quest Island.
Without Hyper I get 7500 EXP per monster.
And WITH Hyper I get only 53628 EXP.

Hmmm 7500 * 12 = 53628???

NO definitively not b:shocked

So I am exitedly about the raesons b:laugh

    Ever considered there might be a limit of experience you may get at once?

    Well I'll be damned if that would be exactly 53628. Which is pretty near a 3 byte integer value.
    (even though 3 byte get's seen as 4 byte)

    Oh well perhaps they thought people would be going to kill bloodpaint shamans to grind massively and be level 9000 really quickly and build a limiter for it.

    Anyhows, be GLAD. If it was any more it could have gone rolling.
    Meaning you could have got negative experience if that limiter wasn't there.

    Short: Probabably, there is a limiter to prevent bugs with experience to occur.

    did someone hit the mob and "shared" part of the kill?
    Elena Costel: I wash my hands of this affair.
    Legerity: *drags you back* *stains your hands with said affair*
    Elena Costel: Noooo... I don't want to have a dirty affair with Lady Legerity...

    if there was then it should not be there. it is most likely that a part of the exp was taken by other members of his squad/ppl who attacked the same mob (plus - exp isn't possible?)

    Lost city is on 2x XP right now, which means XP doesn't exactly gets multiplied by 12.

    Without 2x you would get 3750 xp a kill, 3750 * 12 = 45000

    Now if we add in the 2x event, which makes 12x become 13x (long story) we get:

    3750 * 13 = 48750. Which seems to be a lot closer to the XP you actually got.

    I think we have a winner!
