SOE could::


1. change combat xp to be earned at same rate as weapons xp

2. change combat xp skills to be 30x what they currently are

3. change combat xp caps to be 30x what they currently are


This would:

1. eliminate grenaders from exploiting the combat xp

2. allow regular fsgrinders to still receive fs xp at the previous rate


I fully believe this would be a better solution than just nerfing the xp conversion ratio,please feel free to agree or disagree or suggest any modifications

An easier fix would be for them to change the grenades to either give heavy weapons xp, or that they add an additional 10% of the weapons xp (example: say you got 5000 rifle xp and tossed a grenade, you would gain 1000 combat xp, 500 from the rifle, 500 from the grenade).

I'm not sure either would work, though. If they changed grenades to give HW XP, then they'd still need combat XP to climb that tree. Sure, they could change that, too, but grenades are small arms, not HW. They might as well do what they did to all the "good" classes (SL, Smug) and just make every branch "pistol."


The other option would only make the commando sit in the back of the ranks and throw grenades without shooting. If done one after the other, it still LOOKS like your aiming your rifle at the enemy, so no one is going to question you unless they're watching the combat log very closely. They'd still take 1k combat XP per battle. No commando would bother to even take a shot, thus holding every group back. Why bother taking a grenade tossing commando? I'd kick one in a heartbeat for being so selfish.


Not sure either would work.
