I was told by a friend that when you drop pilot after achieveing Ace that you will get double experience on your next pilot profession. Is this true? I really need to know otherwise I might be in for the long haul again.


Thanks

Only for the missions.


I dont believe you get Double XP for just blowing up ships.


Hope this helps.

Its covered in the sticky above, not entirely related to your question, but all the bonus and changing stuff is in there

Yes, you could double EXP per kill. If you destroy a ship worth 100 EXP, you'll get that plus another 100 of an "Ace Pilot Bonus". Any ship, not just mission ships.

I believe the cap, though, is three times normal EXP.

OK I dropped pilot and see that i get a Master pilot bonus equal to the xp per kill. My second question is, I am an Arkon's Havoc pilot now, already aced Vortex and plan to do Crimson Pheonix, when i do Pheonix will my bonus be the double or will it triple? Also if it doestriple, doesthat mean I will have this bonus carry over to privateer if I plan to do them? I would love to have a x6 bonus but don't expect this to be possible.


Thanks again.

Not too far into the link given by Monsofo, it says this:


You will get the standard "previous master bonus" of [XP * (1+the number of previous FACTIONAL masters)]if you previously had mastered a pilot squad in any of the factions. My understanding is you get 1+ for doing a single squad in any different faction. For a total of 3x+1 bonus (Rebel, Imperial, Privateer). You do not get a bonus for each squad but rather for completing any of the 3 squads in 1 faction. If you complete multiple squads in one faction you do not get a bonus.


which, I believe, answers that question.
