Thread: Med exp now 30:1 conversion for FS exp.
Why does it hurt us? We have a 1.2 milcap just like everyone else. It was only 10:1 before because the cap was 80k. Should be thankful they didn't raise everything higher then they did. Not only that, but this change was in Patch 21 notes. Stop crying, it's not a bug. *Edit* Medical XP is also classified as a type of Combat XP for those that don't know.
Force Sensitive Village
• Force Sensitive Quests: The initial Sith Shadow waypoint datapad will now always be useable as soon as it has been looted. It will no longer display a "You must first loot that object" message.
• The Sith Shadow waypoint datapads are no longer usable in space.
• Altered conversion rate of Combat XP at Force Sensitive village.

• Altered conversion rate of Combat XP at Force Sensitive village. I thought they meant Combat XP not XP classified as combat.

It makes it tough for the FS grind, but it's simply one more step in slowing down the mass exodus from CL 1 to glowy at CL 21 to Padawan in 18 weeks that seems to be happening now.
Unfortunately those of us who are grinding jedi casually, (I've been at it a year), it slows us down even further, however it's still not as bad as trying to unlock a crafting tree! I have a general crafting cap of 50K and it's a very, very slow grind... lol.
Thank goodness for my Master Ranger who converts scout XP from 1.2 mil with an 8:1 ratio! Heightened senses rule! ![]()
Oh, and someone should really argue with the Chicken...he likes that. ![]()
med xp should be 30:1. you get the same amount of weapons xp if all you do is heal, same with weapons, if all you do is attack. the cap is the same as weapons, so the conversion should be the same

Combat XP on the other hand should not have been raised unless they plan on increasing the rate that we accumilate it. " - TarMangani
QFE
YES they should DEFINITLY make it so I can trade my med exp for reflexes and combat. That's an EXCELLENT point.
BTW how do you quote?

With weapons XP you also get combat XP. Medical professions do not get combat XP in addition to the medic XP, hence the conversion is NOT the same.
the fact you dont get 2 kinds of xp doesnt really matter much. combat xp conversion doesnt matter much. getting jedi isnt supposed to be the easiest thing anyways. i do agree that you should now be able to trade it in for reflex/combat xp
well, look at med xp
you obtain med xp through combat, you get it as fast as weapons xp, and it has the same cap as weapons xp, so why shouldnt it be 30:1? whether it has another corresponding xp doesnt matter, it is so similar to weapons xp
