I'm posting full paragraphs about a twenty-seven year old MMO now in the hands of a private equity group trying and succeeding to extract money through bag sales.

Obviously I suck.

I literally came to this post. Brb while I replace my jizz-ruined keyboard.

I've had quite a bit of fun playing on the the all dessert no vegetables server. I don't think Daybreak was envisioning that players would vote for candy and only candy but now that we're here this unlock schedule doesn't fit the rest of the server at all. I get there's no changing it but with the rest of the game on fast forward eighteen weeks of Velious and eighteen weeks of Luclin is a long ass time for those expansions. It doesn't help that last year's TLP, Fangbreaker with it's expanded start ruleset, was stuck on Luclin forever. Selo and Vaniki had the unlock speed but lacked the QoL. This has all the QoL in the world but spends it's first year driving ten under the speed limit.

PL costs are dirt cheap here, 2 kr 30-60, it's tempting but no rush for me. Still trying to get 2 guises and been at it for about 1.5 days. Thinking of trying mistmoore which I think people here had recommended.

You know its bad when the PLers are sending you tells asking if you wanna buy a PL for a krono lol

You have until October. I think time is not much of a factor. Also figure that July 4th will have a bonus so...

Server has been pretty cool as a casual. I'm multi boxing, taking my time. Exp as great. Tons of variety. Weird box combos etc. Maybe get into some small man raiding eventually. It's really no rush and the raid content is face roll, so not very concerned about it. People are chill. It's a good time.

The interaction between the amount of exp you need for any particular level, the group bonus, resource hunter bonus, perk bonus and exp pot and how all of that affects the per kill exp cap is one gigantic black box. Sometimes that box spits out numbers that don't make much sense. I would have thought the exp cap was just a fixed and immutable percentage determined by your level but that does not seem to be the case. At least some inputs change how it's maximum size is calculated.

I got 21% from one kill in xp bonus Mistmoore yesterday. Was level 30 something pulling inside the castle. Before that I think the highest I saw from one kill was 13-14%. I didnt know it was possible to get 20%+ anywhere ever.

Loot bonus is pretty sweet. I got 2 hiero cloaks from one iksar betrayer. Thanks Daybreak for making him rare flagged.

Messing around with it a little more the percentages you get at cap correspond to old explanations about the curvature of required exp per level. For example at level 30 you're at the bottom of a curve needing less experience to level relative to what you're getting than you did at 29. The exp cap at level 30 is in the low 20s because of that but then immediately goes back down. Hell levels and double exp loss on death levels were all normalized but can still have some impact including what the per kill cap is.
