Hello Weaponsmiths,


I have just joined in on the art of weaponsmithing and I am looking at the long grind. I have heard both that factories do and do not give xp. I have heard that they do, but only at a 20%rate of what would be handcrafted, you have to be close to the factory while it is working, etc. I have also heard that they no longer give any xp.


I have been unable to find any info in the notes so I was hoping to get a little assistance from you guys. Thanks.




Devs clearly do not play their creations and are utter clueless as to the results of their nerfs. They seem to be in love with their ideas and ignore the results.

Hi,


I don't think the factories give exp from what I know.

It's 10% of the experience you would receive when hand-crafting.

In theory it should be 10%, however I believe they are currently broken and give none.

I can't remember the last time I actually saw xp from factory runs.

put something into your factory let it build don't do anything else until the first thing is built and see if you got any xp? However I don't believe it is working if it is suppose to as I have yet to get xp as such.

I think you only get exp if the factory is loaded into the world - if no one's nearby, it'll unload itself and you get no exp. It used to work (look back at all the whining when they reduced it to 10% a month after release) but they might have broken it, since merchant exp and UXP both used to work and don't now.

It's not working. Far as I know, last time I saw experience from factories was middle of Beta 3.
