Thread: EXP range limit vs. Riflemen
under the current test center nots, I read the following:
"Removed the requirement for a creature handler to be within 30 meters of his pet in order to gain xp. "
at many different times, i have not recieved EXP when an enemy dies. at first i thought that it was because someone who i wasnt grouped with had participated and had killed the beast, therefor giving me no EXP. then, i noticed that this was still happening even if i did the majority of damage on the creature or was even the player that finished it off. however, sometimes i did still get EXP. i could find no rhyme or reason to it.
at one point when i was fighting with people that i was grouped with, i noticed that every once in a while (like above) i would just not gain EXP for the kill.
after reading the test center notes, i began wondering: is there a limit on the range of EXP gain? i heard someone on the Squad Leader board mention that you only get a modifier to your Squad Leader EXP based on the number of people in your group nearby.
i am not sure how much of this is true or speculation. i do know, that every once in a while i dont get EXP. i think that i was at long range when this happens. i mean, my ideal range is 60m, right? as the game intended, i am using my Rifle (a long-range weapon) at my ideal range. so what? i can get a modifier to hit by no EXP???
has anyone else had this problem? if there is a range limit on EXP, doesnt that kind of destroy the use for having long-range sniping?
yes my friend, for me, its one of the worst bug. Our ideal range is 60 m with a T21, and guess what?
Xp limit range is 64m, meaning when you are prone, and mobs often starts to run away when they are low on health, you have no chance of stading up and running inside 64m for your xp.
