Thread: Droping Ace

I've been thinking about dropping Ace Pilot for some time, so I can master again and get new badges and ships, etc.

My question is, it is for sure you get double xp after one ace, triple after 2 aces, etc.? I don't want to drop ace if I have to grind the whole 4million xp without at least double..


Thanks

yes to a point... if you drop ace and start over you will get double xp. However, to get the triple xp or quadruple xp you must ace different FACTIONS not squadrons. So, if you are a rebel ace and drop it to do a freelance squad you get 2x xp when you ace the freelance squad and start another rebel squad you will get 3x xp. but you won't get the 4x xp until you master an Imp squad.

if you want the quickest route to the 4x xp gor from rebel to freelance to Imp then the rest of the squads you do will be with the 4x xp... that is what I did and it make doing them much easier.

so 4X XP gain is the best you can do?



that's still pretty fast.

Also, plan where you wish to end up now ... for ending at Rebel, it's worth doing RSF for your first Freelance squadron, and ending at Imp, SA is best done first. They give faction point rewards for the final two missions, so if you're going to do 9 squadrons, you can end with faction from 2 aligned and 2 freelance.


Of course, if you don't care about the details, that's all right too.

actually its not quite double experience.

i was a reb master then i grinded freelance and it was more like a 50% bonus..

so something that gives 3000 normally would give 4500 after you drop ace and regrind

Always been double/triple/quad for me. Currently grinding out another rebel squad, after having master SA, Vortex, Black Epsilon, and I'm currently getting 400xp off the tier 1 TIE fighters, which are normally 100xp. So, 100xp (Base) + 100xp (SA) + 100xp (Vortex) + 100xp (Black Epsilon) = 400xp.
