Hello All,


I was running missions today on dant and have only been getting 3k per kill on npc's instead of the normal 5k per kill that I was getting as early as yesterday. I tried 2 sets of buffs, switched groups 3 times with 20 people in each group, grabbed missions that were a 99+ difficulty and rebooted twice with a full scan just to see if it made a diffrence.I tried Mooks, Jantas, Huttron Stalkers and Graul Maulersand all were only paying out 3k per creature. I also tried some npc's on dath that normally give k but only got 3k as well. I hunted all day yesterday and was getting 5k per kill and as far as I know haven't changed anything on my toon since then.


Does anyone have any idea of what might cause this or has this happened to anyone else?


Any adivce or help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

Dred

What weapon are you using? Perhaps the condition has droped, causing lower XP pay-outs.

Kedgeboy,


I cheked my VK and it was only down about 1/4 of it's normal condition. I've used other VK's way past 1/2 of thier normal condition and have never seen this. I also switched to my scythe, which is only down 50 points from max and noticed the same thing? Also, I am killing alone so there is no one to divide the xp amongst.


Thanks,

Dred

I had something stranger happen, like destroy missions somehow being switched with artisan mission, being of the destroy type but with minerals of somekind, with apropriate payout for a survey mission. Or all missions being on another planet than the one your are getting them at.Withone character, I can pick squills and higher, alone ie. not grouped. But one day I could only get 50-500cr range missions like worrts and nunas. Only fix option that worked was to wait for a server restart or reset.


Don´t know about the experience issue thoughit seems a bit different,likeall xp has been lowered overall. Try using a weapon that the crittershave low resists/vulnerability to. Somehow it seems that xp islinked to how much damage you are able to do. AndI got a K or so morexp just by switching to another damage type, but still under the same weapons category Ie. pistols, and this was solo grouped mind you so I´ve been doing all the damage. I´m wondering if this is the case and if one only attacks one ham bar with specials, whichequals less overall damage which equals less xp, but quicker kills. Maybe the DOT bleeds take off from the xp as well, sometimes you manage to land really nasty ones.
