I've just learned survey IV and I'm still getting surveying xp. Do I still need it for something? Does raw XP make any difference in effectiveness?

I've heard there used to be a Miner in Beta, but it is no more. I've hit my cap on Survey experience, but it still tells me that I'm getting it. I have no idea why, unless the DEVs decide to bring back the Miner.

Raw XP doesn't make a difference.

You'll cap out survey XP at 20K after Survey IV and still get "You recieved XX survey XP" messages. Just because you finish a line doesn't mean you stop "earning" XP. Master Weaponsmiths still gain xp for making weapons. Its just a function of the game, do something get xp even if you don't need it.

Could be used for future classes. I still get Music Healing exp, although I don't need it anymore.

or use the extra exp to gain apprenticeship exp -

1) Get another person with loads of survey exp

2) Abandon survey IV

3) Have other person train you in Survey IV

4) They abandon survey IV

5) Train person in survey IV

6) Repeat as experience allows

Silly, but apparently it works to the extent you have extra surveying experience. I'd be reluctant to do this unless I was desperate as you never know when the survey exp might suddenly become useful for a new profession.

And you can always sell back the skill, and let some Apprentice xp starved friend teach it to you again

The XP Cap is there for all skills; I don't think they can remove it from just one. I believe the cap is 2x the XP requirement for the highest skill you have in the tree. (Survey IV costs 10k, so the cap is 20k.)

No, the caps are not only per skill but per level....

A friend has his pistol xp capped out, he's waiting to get the remainder of the skills he needs for BH. But some of the higher skills require more xp than he's currently capped at, so it has to go up as his skills go up.

If they plan to implement something post survey IV, I think they should remove that cap to save all those people who are beyond cap and still getting valuable XP which in turn could be used later on.

It is a wasteful to be at cap and later one needing, thus wasting more time getting XP
