Title: New way of xp
Post by: jacky. on November 22, 2012, 04:25:16 am
In fot server u had great idea of lvling character. Xp wasnt given after killing npc but it was simple and nice formula : 1 npc hp = 3exp. It was simple and v good idea. And more realistic because if u deal more damage u can get more exp.

That way exping together with friends would actually make sense. Also, toughter enemies would mean more xp. Great idea.

Then people will grind on 1 Mutant/Encalve (cripled, weapon droped, out of ammo) with FA and burst.
You will need 1 enc with high hp NPC to lvlup whole gang.
You can even enter in to it with a car so You will be able to lvlup there all the time.

why? can't we just have a easy way to lvl. Why does everything have to be repetitive?
I dont even play this game anymore but when I think of lvling a alt even after 2 months of not playing I get really annoyed. After killling 5000+ centaurs and lvling countless alts. I only want a easy way to lvl without making me lose my mind everytime I want to try out a build.

This heavily punishes fast shot builds in favour of burst weapons and you'd get less xp from kills.

... not to mention finesse characters.

@fdude i believe you that you alredy hate leveling, but this game in final state will have to discourage players from alting and dualoging and it will need balanced leveling, where 1 NPC leveling seems abusing to me. if there have to be some easy/fast leveling method for Beta version it has to be out of global leveling system. (Maybe there might be some "forgoten" NPC which will be giving inifnite XP like Endless Walker)


If you dislike repetition, then bursting/stitching againa and again is good for you ?(maybe if you can set up macro, you will like repetition, right?)

No!  Makes it ez to get exp by shooting and fleeing like a pansy....  Do you really think you should get mass exp for blasting a rocket into Unity without killing a single soul and retreating off map before they can even counter attack?  Such a BAD suggestion....

fast shot builds
You can just use a gatling to lvl up
finesse characters.
You can use assault rifle or greasy who said finesse chars need to lvl with a sniper

+1

why snipers would be in worst position? instant kill on mut rats or cents and u have nice xp boost. this worked fine in fot and why not use it in 2238? people lvled up new chars in 1-2days with out loosing tons of amo and stuff and time

You can do that now already, most critters give more xp than 3x their hp anyways.

I was giving an example of what burst weapons you can use, I have 3 fast shot characters so yes i know it doesn't mean ew

so use burst mode to lvl up. 60hp mole rat would give u 180exp. 1 mutie 300hp would give u 900 exp, float 350hp would give u 1050exp...deathclav 500hp would give u 1500exp...and splash damage would be v useful

telling people to use a gun unavailable to pretty much everyone isn't a great plan
