Experience Curve

[undeadsteak]

Something is seriously wrong with the xp curve. I compared it with a player who created his character after Sundren. He has 15k xp right now, and i think -400 on the xp curve. Now, my char who was here before Sundren closed, and is level 7, has 22k xp, and he has a +11k xp curve. Thats 4k more then how much it takes for the 15k char to get to 22k. Either my char is having lesser xp then he should, or this new char is having more xp then he should.

ECL race?

[undeadsteak]

Nope, just a human druid. Vashan Norx. The New character is a rock gnome, Ego Trip.

I believe that all or most of the characters made before Sundren went down, have had their curves raised so you can't just jump into the game and level off the bat.

Pain in the arse really for most.. I have a level 9 Barbarian, about 25 - 30k above the curve. This is rediculous because my newer char, Callus is a level 8 Paladin with about 18k above the curve.

If I tried, I could out level my Barbarian Scarr and have a less curve.

Understandably higher level chars take alot longer to level up and the massive curve allows players to catch up, but I do not think it is within reason.

I think Ithil had it right in a previous thread. When the characters were readded it was like that character was created that day and then given all the xp for their level. So of course if you get 30k in one day, the code thinks your a major grinder and sets you to the min rate.

YEah, but why are new characters having better curve then old chars? Theyre able to outlevel us, like they were made before us.

[GodBeastX]

If you are a character who believes your experience is bugged, tell me your char name.

[undeadsteak]

Vashan Norx is bugged im pretty sure.

[GodBeastX]

Give me his race/experience and I will do the math and you can then tell me if that's you're rate.

[undeadsteak]

His Race is human, his xp is 22k estimated.

Remember, that some characters were made before the server's old vault was restored, keep that in mind to.

Also; Spell-check. -_-;

i very seldom get the chance to play due to the amount of traveling i do for work.
my character is well over 5months old (i made him when i signed up on the forum).
how ever i have been playing him on and off throughout this period of time, when i get the chance.
its taken me ages to get to level 7 haha.
so i think that this sort of system is to benefit long term sundrites like myself who dont have the time to power level, but have been around and rping for a long time.

i logged on 2night and found that i wasnt getting more than 7 or 8 xp per creature.
it seemed i was getting far less than normal.
where as i think after reading some of this thread that as he is such an old char that the bell curve should be in his favor rather than against.

ive a feeling my char may be bugged.
is it possible for you to look into it?

name = Cale
race = human
xp = 21033

if ive missed anything fill me in

My Paladin Garren is having a bit of a problem with the curve..but it is slowly increasing after I have been playing with my other char for a few days.

[undeadsteak]

hmm... i think Syl is bugged as well, but not 100% sure. Shes human, with around 82k xp.
