I haven't even done each quest once. I started looking them up in the wiki but it was too troublesome... Or I am just lazy :D.

Alternative ways to gain xp besides grinding sounds very interesting I have to say. Thumbs up!

Now that the issue has had time to die down and after some deliberation, I've decided to go ahead and increase the experience from kills to the rate I tested briefly before in the next update.

There may be some further fine-tuning and tweaking needed for specific areas or specific level ranges but overall this should mildly increase leveling speed overall.

Is this for epics only or for all kills?

Awesome to see the XP raised.

Spent 8 months on my main toon and only managed to get to level 21. With time spent grinding as well- being a time in my life where I had virtually no responsibilities and played a TON more.

Can't wait to get home from my trip and hop on. The really slow progress made me enjoy the server a lot less once my time started getting eaten up by my job a few years ago. Also made my RL friends quit the server back then. Might be able to convince them to get back on finally.

Thanks for this little change, I'm sure majority of people are going to be very thankful for it.

3.) Make certain your rewards are logged. QC members are entitled to 5000xp per month. It is your responsibility to be certain the XP you withdraw and the DM giving you the XP are logged in [redacted link]

I picked door number....

2!

"Implement a Bank that fills up as you RP"

I think its an awesome incentive and removes the urgency to level if your roleplay allows you to become/feel more powerful. Thus having that moderation of XP to spend from your "Bank" to incrementally increase your characters power from experiences.

Though, Any other increase in XP is welcomed.

Yes I quoted blind date please dont hate me.

... and get to a workable solution. Don't underestimate the effort it takes to get a workable solution from the arguments that happen on the forums ;-) ( and even then I'm selling the effort short, and not by a little. )

Doesn't sound like an easy 5000xp! Well earned!

free 5k xp a month if you want to argue on a subforum, explain the countless game systems to players, help new players out, come up with new solutions or game content, spend their free time testing bugs and new systems instead of spending time actually playing, etc.
I fixed that for you. Our QC members actually work incredibly hard to make this server an enjoyable experience for everyone.

A fitting fix, and a comprehensive one I think.

Let's get back on topic now, as this is of no further relevance to the topic.

As it stands, How does the current Roleplay XP system work?

In very short, you get RP XP for talking, emoting, whispering, etc. with other players.

If you wish to know more, I'd recommend opening a different thread for that, as this is not the topic to discuss RP mechanics. This topic is dedicated to whether or not changes should be made to gaining XP, not how it's gained :-)

Should you have further questions, feel free to PM me, or open a new topic.

"Double XP gain from Epic Spawns"

Is there difficulty levelling in epics then? Difficulty spike or lack of XP?
