Character level is now important. Defeating things with a lower level than yours gives GREATLY diminished XP rewards.

Examples:

Assumptions:
I am a level 50 character
My opponents are worth 500 EXP at whatever level they are at.

Example 1: Level 50 opponent
Full experience, 500 EXP for defeating this opponent. This EXP may be divided across several categories if necessary ( e.g. if I both heal party members as a doctor and beat on them as a TKA, I may have 300 EXP for medic and 200 for unarmed ).

Example 2: Level 45 opponent
Each level below yours is a 10% penalty, so 500 * 50% = 250 EXP, divided across categories if applicable.

Example 3: Level 55 opponent
Unknown. It's my belief -- based on anecdotal experience -- that you get an EXP bonus for defeating enemies at a higher level than you. So, to possibly spread this misinformation, I'll assume you'll get 500 * 1.25% = 625 EXP, divided across categories if applicable.


As a result, you need to check the levels of your foes. I believe that they are somewhat lower than your own level. In my own adventures, I've ranged from 1XP ( for critters well below my level ) to 20,000 XP ( for critters several levels above my own ).

NOTE: If you are in the group, everyone is effectively the same level as the highest character in the group when determining XP. So, for example, if my level 58 friend adventures with me (level 80), and we defeat a level 70 creature, both of us will get next to nothing in XP, as we are both considered level 80 for purposes of experience.

Thanks for your reply, I just read a thread elsewhere on the forum basically saying what you have !


As I said in the other thread, Seems like I now have to be grouped to get XP now, which I find unfair in many ways, but mainly you shouldn't have to be grouped to get XP but this is now the case with this CU. In my opinion, If you want XP then you should be able to go get it as and when required and should not have to rely on there being a group hunt at the time your online.


Talk about try and control you !

not entirely true , i have found TK can solo fairly well , take rebel or imp missions of around your level. it'll only spawn 2 enemies that won't both agro unless one is a squad leader, and have a faction pet just incase they are. i'm TK 4212 / MD and i can take out these camps getting about 3k xp for those of level 63 (i'm level 65) and about 4k xp for even level's , each camp takes about 3 minutes to take out. you just have to play around and feel it out , it can take a little while to get use to not running in and attacking the base and trying to kill everything at once anymore

According to the little messages that flash up on my screen every so often, experience is penalised 10% per combat level the target is lower than you, and increased 10% per combat level the target is higher than you. So if I'm level 58, fighting a level 58 Tortur, I might get 5000 xp. If the Tortur is level 53, I get 2500. If he's level 63 I theoretically get 7500xp (but in real life what I actually get is a right good kicking )

DarthRancor,


This is my point here, you had to group in order to get them missions! I'm level 80 and if I went on my own id get my butt whipped, unless I was in a group.
