View Full Version : Is this correct? The XP seems whacked

OK, so the other night I was in a group in the Grey. I had a 51 monk, was grouped with 2 60 wiz, 58 ranger, 55 druid, and a 60 cleric..

We killed for quite a while, but at one point I reset my xp to 0 because I was interested to see the recalculation for how many kills til I levelled...

This is what I saw:

Killed Level Base xp ZEM Total Class T Group T xp Gain
golem 43 138675 138675 166410 166410 0
stalker 47 165675 165675 198810 198810 104624
golem 44 145200 145200 174240 174240 0
bouldering 38 108300 108300 129960 129960 0
golem 44 145200 145200 174240 174240 104624
golem 46 158700 158700 190440 190440 0
golem 47 165675 165675 198810 198810 0
golem 46 158700 158700 190440 190440 0
bouldering 38 108300 108300 129960 129960 0

Total xp: 209,248
Total Mobs Killed: 10
Avg xp per Mob: 20,924

I am a bit ocnfused... I got "You have earned xp" for every one of those kills, and was in range of all of them, yet it appears I did not get credit for all of them? Or is this just some problem with SEQ? I had sort of noticed this behavior before but didn't think anything of it, but tonight I noticed in the time we were there my xp total moved 2% for a bunch of kills - these last 10 were just the tail end of the bunch. If this is true, what the heck is up with that? Wizards now able to overnuke the entire party and suck all the xp up?

Hopefully this is just some undocumented "feature" I was unaware of :)

Thanks.

Yeah, thanks for the link. Sometime after I posted this I did a search on XP and looked through the various threads that came up and saw something about this.

So the gist of this is, I did receive xp for the kills, but it won't show me any xp progress until I actually manage to get enough to nudge my bar a "tick". How nice of them - I guess it makes sense, they are now sending a lot smaller amounts of informaiton for xp updates. Just really strange when you are looking at xp trying to figure out how close to the next level.. I guess you only really see something "close" to the truth when you are soloing or in a group of the same level characters.

Thanks again
