Just when you thought it was easy to grind..


Starting this morning, post Patch 22, the xp gain for killing monsters is 10% of what it was last night. 10%!!!!!! I killed 10 lvl 60 Pikets solofor a whopping 4k Rifle xp.


Let's hope this is an unintended bug of this patch.

W/ an inspiration buff I'm getting exactly the same xp I was getting before the patch(I'm a Jedi, but I dont see how it really makes a difference)

It appears that with inspiration buff, the numbers are reversed. 10% that would be inspiration buff is now regular xp, and what would have been the regular xp amount is now the inspiration buff.

And if I was hologrinding and had to do ent... yes, I probably would charge that much
But no hologrinding anymore, and we got this screwed up village now.

So I'm getting about 10% xp totalbetween regular and inspiration xp for every kill. It sounds like some people are only seeing a "Display" bug, but their XP totals are going up the correct amounts. The only difference I can think of, is that I still had an inspiration buff leftover from the night before, and that is causing me to only get 10%. I'll let my inspiration buff run out and see what happens.


What are others seeing?

if you actualy check how the numbers change in your skills sheet, you will see that the xp is unchanged, its just a display bug where its showing the 10% inspiration buff as gained xp (and the % shown is actual xp).

So far most of the changes in this patch are either broken, or unchanged.

Guys, please test before you start a post like this. I logged into game to verify this. You still get the same xp in a group right now.

THANK YOU!!! For crying out loud people, look for yourselves before ranting and raving and complaining! The XP you receive is the same. I'm still getting 7400ish for killing an 82 piket in a group of 8, the display message is just messed up. Look at your Skills Window before comdemning the world.
