Title: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Hunter on March 14, 2011, 07:32:58 pm Changed all zones exp from 1.1 to 1.6 for now. Still might change later in the future.
In the near future, will be working on Instances and revamping current Quest into Task. Just need the time to do it, probably during my day off on a Saturday. Enjoy! Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Reed on March 14, 2011, 07:36:59 pm Task system would be super, welcome changes indeed
Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Everwes on March 14, 2011, 08:31:33 pm Hunter,
How dare you raise the experience we gain! I just had to do it. If anyone complains about your change...well, it better be in jest as mine was! Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Reed on March 14, 2011, 08:35:14 pm I hate this change and all other positive changes in the coming future. If it isn't a nerf, it shouldn't be done...
*serious face* Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Hunter on March 14, 2011, 08:54:16 pm What was I thinking? Would a 0.1x exp rate be better? Take a month to get level 70 (or a RoA Rank).
Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: trogdorr on March 14, 2011, 08:55:21 pm Just turn exp off, and wait till someone notices....
Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Reed on March 14, 2011, 09:45:36 pm Just turn exp off, and wait till someone notices.... Pay 1 mil plat to turn on exp to 0.1x for 1 hour. Its more hardcore that way Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: bozac on March 14, 2011, 09:54:45 pm Man, just when i got used to the gimp exp he has to go and increase it...
Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Kovou on March 14, 2011, 10:00:20 pm yes change xp to 0.1x and put death xp loss to where if you die at level 70 you delevel all the way to level 1!!!
*hardcore serious face* Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: Reed on March 14, 2011, 10:06:34 pm yes change xp to 0.1x and put death xp loss to where if you die at level 70 you delevel all the way to level 1!!! *hardcore serious face* I approve! Or better yet, have it take away one rank of RoA upon death! or...or...or! Diablo 2 Hardcore mode. Once you die, roll a new char Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: stad on March 15, 2011, 01:57:56 am if you die with a ROA ring equiped ,and you cant unequip it while fighting , then you loose xp. :-\

Would a 0.1x exp rate be better? Take a month to get level 70 (or a RoA Rank). Hunter man your math is off.. It would not take the majority of people who are running RoAs a month to do.. only about 11 hours at 0.1x xp rate. The average RoA was about 50 minutes, give or take, back when Exp was set to 2.2x - I was running 32 min minimum (35 avg) RoAs) with a Bard and an Ancient Blue Platinum BP (highest lvl custom armor – 9k hp, 175 ac all/all no level req – basically sham 3.0 in BP form for RoA – I highly recommend it if you can afford btw). So with no Sham or Druid I was running 32-35 mins at 2.2x a month ago (with a 4.0 war in fire instance 47-70). Most people I know who run RoAs use a sham & druid; from personal experience with people in my guild and outside most run it around 50 minutes to an hour; theres some who go down to 30 range so I leveraged down to 50 mins. If you were to drop Xp down to 0.1x that would increase RoA time by approx 22 fold; 22 x 50 minutes = 18.3 hours. What the heck is that? The average person doing a RoA in 18 hours – that’s like 4-5 days of playing.. complete BS it would be that fast at 0.1 x. What I propose is a more sensible exp rate of 0.03x. This would equate to an exp reducation of 73.3 fold x 50 minutes = only 61 hours for RoA. 15 hours or so a week would net a RoA in a month. That sounds pretty reasonable to me. Doesn’t it to too you Hunter? After all this isn’t the EAZY server – it’s the Extended Zones server!!

Title: Re: Update 03 14 11 Post by: walk2k on March 16, 2011, 12:28:50 pm not counting zoning time and equip/unequipping all my armor (using a set of dulak gear + some stuff I picked up in NTOV :) I was doing one RoA level in about 20-30 mins I would guess... never took a stopwatch to it. probably more like 45 mins with all the zoning and taking breaks... I really can't stand doing that for long periods of time.. if you put a limit per day or something it wouldn't bother me since I can only stand doing 1-2 a day anyway :P

It was a meant to be a sarcastic rebuke to the people complaining about the XP reduction. Oh well... at least I know Hunter is too smart to take my post at face value.
