Hi,


That mobs seem to give less xp now... before I would get 100 for a newbie mob, now it is ONE xp.


This also seems to be in effect for more mobs... stuff conning blue to me is giving me 1-10 xp


Whites also seem to have lost about 40% of their xp... for example, spined snakes on lok.


Anyone notice?


I'm suspecting code the higher you are in weaponskill, the less xp...

Ya the higher you go in your skill boxes the less XP you will get per kill .



That's why a good player suggested leveling your skill boxes linear , and always getting the MAX XP allowed before you go skill train . Like say if you need 125k XP for that next box , actually get much more than that , like 200k then go train .



Because as soon as you get that next tier up your XP per kill goes down .



So instead of getting all 4 boxes in one tier , get all of the four low tier boxes then move to tier 2 .



Good luck and kill Snorbals on Lok man they are slow as hell and give great XP .

Interestingly, this EXACT same thing happened to ranger maskscent abilities. Where I used to gain 6 or 10 or 20 or even 50 or 100 XP for successfully maskscenting, I now get, tops, 30, with it typically like 1 or 2. Very strange. It wasnt just box advancement either, something was seriously messed with it. More 'patches', I'd guess.

Yeah I mentioned this in another thread, I basically cant XP now until I get a T21 or Laser Rifle. Becuase with my weapons Im doing the same damage I was doing at Novie Rifleman, yet XP has dropped.
