Means you can't use a level 1 weapon and skillup by doing 0 dmg.

Yes I know. Were you aware that you could auto-attack the Dolphins in sea with a DMG:1 weapon and go afk (i.e. bed for the night)? They don't attack unless you hit them for more than 0.

This has always been an ability in the game, but the mobs always aggroed so you at least had to sleep them. They actually had to patch it after the dolphin exploit.

I knew they wont aggro if you voke / debuff them....but I always thought hitting them, even for 0, would piss them off.

[Raineer]

Yeah, I never bothered though cause I know one would lead me under a UFO and I'd get owned.

Freaking Jellyfish scare the hell out of me now.

wtf!!! You're afraid of NAKEDGA?!?!?!?

oh, does anyone find these xp rings to be fucking useless ??


Look at chariot band, then read this:

3. Maximum Bonus
This refers to the maximum number of bonus experience points that can be earned while the enchantment is in effect. The enchantment will fade once this number has been reached.



so once I've gotten my bonus of 500 xp in NINETY minutes, my xp bonus wears off. So say I'm killing EM mobs alone, I'll get a bonus of 75%, so 75 extra xp per kill. Once I reach 500 xp bonus, this wears off. 500/75 = 7 mobs. Doesnt take me 90 minutes to kill 7 mobs.


They better have some good worthwhile rings, or this is a waste of CP.

But when you're in the dunes, it might take a while to fulfill that exp bonus, but it definitely saves you some trouble of being in hell for so long.

Actually I see this as a nice boost when I'm soloing SMN18. 90 minutes for 7 EM's sounds about right (not really but it feels like it)

The original news item they mentioned it in said that they were intended for "extra experience from defeating easy opponents". They probably want people to kill a bunch of EP mobs, not every job can solo EMs.

1500 free xp every 16 hours is worth any amount of cp, cant get shit with cp

[Rawk]

1500 free xp every 16 hours is worth any amount of cp, cant get shit with cp

Thank you SE for making BST exp a little bit easier

[Aether]

1500 free xp every 16 hours is worth any amount of cp, cant get shit with cp

Exactly, this is a free 1.5k exp every day I lvl rdm. I am actually happy about something SE has done for once.

[Nirokun!]

Using this while soloing Aglooliks on smn, 75% addition to a 300 exp kill = 525 exp first kill, imagine the chain o_o

...lol could only chain 1 before the ring wore off and would have to equip the other

[Marcatil]

It's a benefit-over-time usage. The face value is small, but the output used over a large duration of time (which SE specifically said) is enormous.

Think about it, if you reach the cap 7 times/week, that's 7000exp extra for nothing. Totally nothing. That's like getting an exp scroll guaranteeing you 7000exp for doing...nothing. Paying CP, woo, not really much to get CP-wise for the most part XD.

Now, 4 weeks in a month, 28000exp free. That's almost 3 free merit points ;o. Out of a year if you did this as a constant: 336,000 bonus EXP.

I see 33 free merit points 8)

[Hirronimus]

How is CP calculated? Which kills give more? Obviously EP+, but I remember after 2ITs, I still had same amount. Is it hour/EXP?

[bercus]

CP are done by 10%, so if you get 7000 EXP in a PT you made 700CP

Plus the rings ARE CHEAP, the time you made that 1000 Extra EXP /day you have alrdy made 100 CP back, not including the EXP you would have made anyhow beeing like 2000 EXP = 200 Cp = 300 CP done by soloing weak mobs.

Iam pretty sure though that its 10% ;;

300*7=2100 CP and it cost 100CP to load it full again >.< i dont know why ppl cry about this ring has a too short time. If you come online and letz say can only PT for like 1 hour this is the BEST method now to get still nice exp. Or imagine this at low levels like 10~50, you get awesome 7000 EXP what can be like 1~3 Levels, or 0~10 in like no time. 1000 Exp at low levels is almost 1 lvl or 1/2 a day. Dont you all hate leveling from 9~10?

[Hirronimus]

I cry about another Re/Ex item in my inventory. ; ;
