All right so i went to Yavin with a friend to get some scouting xp. We were hunting some creatures that were right around lvl 80. So we killed some creatures and i went to harvest them I was getting 230+ bones andI got no more than 600 scout xp per creature even with the goup bonus. My friend was over there getting 3,000+ scout xp. What's up with this???

The creatures we were hunting were no more than level 70 on Yavin. But, when we hunted those level 80's later, you were still getting, what, like 1.5k xp? When I was getting 4.5k at least.


PS

I'm the friend.

What is your combat level (not the group level) and what was your friend's combat level?

This is an example of the anti-powerlevel rule: when in a goup your xp is capped based on YOUR combat level and not on the level of the group.


Thedefault* ammount of resourcesyou get, however,is based on your harvesting skill, the level of the creature and it's state (scrawny, medium, healthy) and isnot tied to your CL or the CL of the group.



(*) The default ammount does change however based onbeing solo, in a group,being grouped with a ranger or being grouped with a master ranger.

So then I would be getting less xp because I have a lower level? I'm only lvl 48 at the moment and my friend was lvl 80.

Exactly. With the new system where you only have to hit a creature once to get xp they wanted to avoid the power-leveling that has been possible in JTL by grouping with a higher level player and letting her take out the enemy as soon as you got one hit in.

Hi.


Although it can be a pain in the a$$, the way to get lots more xp is to group for the mission and the kill, then ungroup before harvesting and repeat.


I have tried both ways. My combat level was 9, and when killing Lv 80 Bols in a group on Dant I got 132xp for harvesting (plus 558 rifles and 54 combat)


If I temporarily left the group b4 each harvest, I was then getting 4500 scout xp Much nicer and levelling 10 times faster, but u will need a group of friends who put up with all the quitting and re-inviting.


If they do tho, you can do 3 lines of scout in about 2 hours,with just the trapping still to do
