Bio Engineer Archive

The other day I had someone ask me to train them in Tissues IV and Master Bio-engineer. I was happy to do so, met them and started a new Master on thier path. For the training in Tissues IV I recieved 20 ap, and for the training in Master, 10ap. This struck me as rather odd...*less* ap for training an elite profession? I talked to the TKM sitting next to me and she confirmed she got 60ap for training someone in Master Teras Kasi. I shrugged and went on my way...awhile later I trained someone in Scout, hunting IV...50ap. The next day I trained someone in Techniques IV (dont recall the exact name, the experimentation line)...20ap. Is this typical, a bug, a nerf, what? I seem to recall that the elite professions actually give *more* xp than the equivilant Basic professions, , for each train. Anyone else run into this?

Hmm, not sure if this has changed or not. My AP has been maxed for so long I can't even remember lol.

This is not new, not a bug, unfortunately, you always get AP xp based on the skillpoints of the box you are training. 5 skill points = 50 AXP, 1 skill point = 10 AXP. Has always been this way.

I agree though that it doesn't make much sense to train some base profession box once for 50 AXP, and to train an elite prof mastery box you get 10 AXP.

Base professions start at2 SP and the top line is 5 SP. Master box for some of the base professions are a load. Now, elite professions start at 5 SP on the bottom row leaving 2 SP for the top row. The master box is always 1 SP in the elite profs. So Tissues 4 will be 20 AP and master will yield 10 AP. I agree that teaching master should yield a bonus, but oh well.

I'm always happy when someone asks for any of the base boxes because that is 50 AP to me. But, most of the time, it's a top level box.

this is prob why we cant train nov brawler, artisan, marksman ect

True. It is annoying the reversedness, as it means you can't pick up as many skills in them.
