I know they were posted somewhere before. I can't seem to find them.


If anybody knows where they were posted, could you A) direct me to the post, or B) paste the numbers here?


I'd really appreciate it.

D'oh, 2 more minutes of searching and I would have found it.



Panthu:



Entertainer Healing XP gain is totally out of whack with the inspiration buffs. You actually get less XP per buff at higher levels than you do for lower levels. This isn't just a matter of diminishing return, you actually get less XP per buff.



At Novice Ent - You get 360 EH XP per buff

At Novice Elite - You get 90 EH XP per buff

At Novice Elite plus Wound Healing bonus from training the WH line, BE WH Cloths, and/or the Master Ent box (or being a Twi) - You get 80 EH XP per buff

If training up in a second Elite for a Double Master - You can get as little as 30 XP before hitting your Second Master while performing as your first



This actually punishes Ent Performers in skill progression for becoming better at their skill.

Was trying to find it to post about this (and other xp issues) in the latest "In Testing - Dev" CU bug thread.

No, no my dear - the fact that the xp goes down as you go higher in level is lame.


You are super snawesome a-okay. You dig?

Wow that is really sad.

I feel so sorry for up-and-coming entertainers. Or I would, if there were going to be any. I don't see why anyone would bother starting in the class at this point, though, sadly.

Well, except for some of the psuedo-uber-leets in my guild, who are going to take novice ent now that they don't need novice medic, so they can self-heal and not have to ever bother going to a cantina.

It's going to be interesting to see what, if anything, the devs do with entertainers after the CU goes live, or if they are just going to keep letting the class fester until it's totally dead.

Is there any differance in level/buff quality?


Can some one go get base novice entertainer and give the same insiration buff as a master dancer?

This is my concern, If master is only needed to reduce BF and wounds faster but not needed for the inspireation buff then whats the point?

The inspiration buff that is currently on test is the one intended for novice entertainers to learn. As with mind wound healing on live, the benefit will be applied faster when watching or listening to a higher level entertainer.
