Talk:Experience point

Accumulation
http://forum.nightowlgames.net/showthread.php?4788-General-grouse-about-xp.&p=14813&viewfull=1#post14813 Is this true? Haven't watched it at all since I only log in a few times a week. --What is this i dont even 11:29, November 7, 2011 (EST)
 * I just checked after gaining the last level and that reflected my experience, will attempt to keep an eye out to make sure I didn't hit it just after gaining a level. It's also important to refresh the game to make sure it isn't a display issue. [[:Template:Ns:user:DragonMudd|DragonMudd]] 12:01, &lt;november&gt; 9, 2011 (EST)
 * I verified the 1%, and then in the comment I mistakenly said I ran the experiment over 21:47 when it ran over 45:47 (had my spreadsheet lopping off a day in the display, but not in the calculation). It was 1156 XP gained over 45:47, which comes out to 25.24936 XP/hour... assuming an uncertainty of +/-2 in XP (twice as generous as it would be) and +/- 10 mins (extremely generous) that yields an uncertainty of +/- 0.10 XP/hour.DragonMudd 23:48, November 12, 2011 (EST)

Addition Bonus
Is the additional bonus needed? There are like only two bonuses I can think of in the beta. Isn't it to much to make because of those two an extra collum? --What is this i dont even 14:53, October 30, 2011 (EDT)


 * Well, at least when you export this page over to the Live wiki you won't have to do much reformatting. Another problem is that players are reporting that the collect all button doesn't show up until level 34, even thought it should show up at 20. --Pho Kadat 17:56, October 30, 2011 (EDT)


 * Where are you getting that from? One of their facebook posts that introduced the button claimed you get it when you get your third dungeon, which would put it at level 30. That was before the changeover though, so it was level 3 at the time. DragonMudd 19:25, October 30, 2011 (EDT)
 * Ah ha, but you get your third dungeon at level 20 --&gt; First dungeon at 1, second dungeon at 10, and third dungeon at 20. --Pho Kadat 19:32, October 30, 2011 (EDT)
 * Oh right. Well, I know as soon as I got my third dungeon, I was able to collect all. DragonMudd 22:31, October 30, 2011 (EDT)

Title
Since the new Servers will have only 10 levels I think there won't be any new titles. Do you think that the idea is correct? What is this i dont even 12:36, September 21, 2011 (EDT)


 * Essentially yes, Deadlord is the last title intended for the Beta. However, the Tranlastions.xml includes the new titles and at Server Level 20 (i.e. Beta Server Level 2), the title is Big Meanie. With the way the XML is structured at the moment, anyone who reaches Level 20 on the Beta will become a Big Meanie again. --Pho Kadat 17:18, September 21, 2011 (EDT)

Discrepancy
"Levels between gaining new dungeons will activate different features" --&gt; I don't think they are planning to implement this concept on the Beta server. This is something they'll introduce on the new server world. I'm going to roll this update back. --Pho Kadat 18:30, September 29, 2011 (EDT)

Verifying that combat does not increase experience
A full page refresh is done each time before an XP measurement is done.

No actions are taken except occasionally changing dungeons and picking up stacks, but most time is spent on the overworld screen. Crafting jobs do occasionally finish, however. Expected XP increase of 4/hour observed. No extra XP is gained.

Looks like it's 6,000 points to get to level 5, not 4,000 as originally guessed. This sequence looks familiar? It might be the sum of all previous levels times 1000, which would give 1k 2k 3k 6k 10k 15k 21k 27k 34k etc. The formula for summing up the numbers 1..n is n*(n+1)/2, or you could just add cumulatively. It could also be "the sum of all previous experience point totals," however, which would predict that you need 12k to get to level 5, not 10k. Someone past level 4 should check?

 * No that is incorrect. You can find more at the link KTCAOP 21:41, February 9, 2011 (EST)

I know they said exp continues to double, but there must be a point where it curves to a slower rate. Assuming 25 exp per dungeon and 19 dungeons it would take over 36 years to go from 19 to 20 at the listed value, which I don't see happening. ~Astasia 03:08, February 10, 2011 (EST)


 * Agreed. I think it was a kneejerk reaction. But we'll see. KTCAOP 11:09, February 10, 2011 (EST)


 * Yikes. 25 XP/hour per dungeon is extremely generous, considering the amount of level 5 rooms you'd need, and it still takes an overwhelmingly ridiculous amount of time. Perhaps they don't intend to have anyone actually get that high. n47h4n 15:42, February 10, 2011 (EST)
 * Well they could have other XP mechanics in place for us. A more active way hopefully


 * what is the best/easiest way to gain XP? i've got 2 level 3 vaults but any upgrade giving XP after this seems at least a week or two worth of resources away or am i doing something terribly wrong? Peltco Peltco 13:19, February 26, 2011 (EST)


 * Mine is I believe the easiest to get to a level 5. Outside of that, I think I did Tavern and then Storage room. KTCAOP 03:24, February 27, 2011 (EST)
