Wouldnt explain no exp when in alliance.

Yah, but i gotta hope =(

When i think about it, i knew it was going to be nerfed, but i'm still pissed they did it... I was hoping to get most of my jobs to 80 that way.

But if everyone stopped to think about it, they knew it was broken, we just didn't want to admit it

[Arthars]

o shit what just happened to this maint....................

is this XP thingy a bug now? or was it a bug and they fixed it now.............

i hope its the former.....

Wouldnt explain no exp when in alliance.

When we went in when Abyssea was new with alliance, most of us got no exp/cruor for a while actually. This sounds normal from my experience. (That was on the 2nd day after abyssea released)

Kill a few more until they start respawning High IT to the level 80's and lets see where we stand...

Still nerfed. We're only reaching 150s when bats repopped IT, and only when a single party touches the bat.

Then there may still be hope.

Hopefully one of the people inside Abyssea currently will continue farming to see if it starts to go up .-., and it was really just the mobs levels resetting.

How long have you been farming? 150 exp for a party/Alliance sounds normal until well over an hour into the run.

If you're including your "Pre-disconnected Chain" into the equation, if the mobs levels were reset good chance the Chain you built up before the maint was too, so you'd be back to no chain exp.

not all mobs will have 0 xp tho, from my experience only some will yield 0 XP, and even after bonus ramping up to like 480 xp per kill, there will still be 1-2 mobs that yield 0 XP too occasionally

but getting 0 xp from initial 10-20 mobs in 18 man alliance is something new

with people repeating grinding in and out, alliance after another taking over the camp, it may explain why mobs are all IT

since its a maint, server resets and mobs all go back ep and dc? we can only hope for now

[sruon]

How's alliance nerf a bad thing? Though if it touches 6 man parties that's more annoying.

[Necronus]

I wouldn't panic JUST yet.

Not saying they didn't nerf it, but it still sound like our first alliance run was for the first 20 minutes. I'm personally gonna wait a few hours to panic OR wait until theres a patch/maint notes (where the heck is the note anyway)

[Belkin]

Still nerfed. We're only reaching 150s when bats repopped IT, and only when a single party touches the bat.

Only when a single party touches the bat? Why not just have every party in the alliance fight a different mob like you should be doing in the first place?

Was farming rabbits for a crour attempt in the first couple days of the run as we were clearing towards marvin, and were not getting any crour or exp at all a kill.

Way to react early guys, please try and be patient and make sure this is right. Even farming birds with my alliance it took about 5 kills to start even getting exp, and we only hit 100 after 30 or so kills.

[Shenrien]

well yay, hopefully all the items will sky rocket in price again and if they do... $_$

Buy now while their 100k and sell later lol.

[Gwynplaine]

I'd like to see more before I come to any conclusion. So unless you're going to post some results about how things may or may not have changed then shut up.

[Darkmagi]

I doubt costs of cruor gear will increase that much. You can still get a lot of cruor with 6 people.

[ringthree]

So has anyone really tested if anything has changed or not?

The only reports I am seeing are from people that probably didn't know how it was before the update or how it was when it first started.

[Braxis]

Things have not changed, it was the server resets from maint.

Started off with total shit exp off mandies, like 5xp/0cruor shit.

Now back up to 100xp/18cruor each.

I'm going to check these quests out myself, I just wanted to single the punk out

[HKR]

In an alliance right now in abyssea; hour and a half time, 15 minutes left and we're starting to get 200 exp per mob (At 75). I'm thinking it's just the levels got reset in maintenance.

[orson]

Has there been anything posted on any of the other POL sites (like the JP) about what the maintenance was actually for? I'd expect SE to say at least a blurb on what they did otherwise if shit did get nerfed this smells like the resistance fuck up all over again.

[chazzyphizzle]

Nothing got nerfed, people prematurely ejaculated.
