Question on xp in level restricted areas

[dietvanillapepsi]

I havent really done much in CoP. I believe that xp earned in a lvl restricted area is earned based on your current lvl and not your actual lvl right? If so then could you kill IT's as, say, a lvl 40 and earn 200+ a kill (with chains)? Is this a viable alternative for gaining xp and merit points?

Again, not knowing the CoP areas too much or their mobs, is there a lvl 50 or lvl 60 cap area where one can earn over 200 on the first kill and chain from there?

Yes, its possible to earn a merit point's in the CoP areas. That happened to me in Prom. Mea

Well, before this patch the mobs were in really retarded places and it wasn't possible to EXP on them. They are very hard mobs too... silencga and just hard to kill.

Who knows though, maybe this update will fix that.

Hippogryphs aren't too bad, not to mention you could possibly get headfeathers from them, which would be nice in an exp pt. In RivB, the Strato Hippogryphs are all VT+, but near Malboros, which aren't exactly a forgiving mob family to exp on. There's also Greater Bird family mobs and Wyverns and Bomb Clusters which again would be tougher than the crabs and crawlers and weapons and other cheesy xp mobs we're all used to, but I think capped xp will be possible with a skilled and prepared group.

Thank you for helping the conversation by giving us new information and outlook.

Back on topic, the biggest problem with exping in CoP places isn't too much of the mob placement, but because of things like the mobs WS's (Hippo's Dispelga, Clusters 3x Self Destruct, Fomor's AoE Drown + TP Reset, Promyv Mobs random annoying WS's). Also another problem is in order to exp in the first 3 Promyvs you have to go up to at least the 2nd or 3rd level, and with True Sight mobs and Fake Teleporters, that can be a hassle.
