Does the number of XP matter to you?

Well, let me explain. Even the lowest of low rate servers these days still over 1000's of exp per mob, for very little %. Having such a high xp number complicates things, so i am planning on changing it abit for my server.

Basically, i'm going to make all the xp as low as possible, but still have it as a mid rate server.

Example, starting level = 36, exp for level = 1000, Wooma = 10xp but still gives 1%

OR

Starting level = 36, exp for level = 10000000, wooma = 100000xp, but still gives 1%

So my question is, does it matter to you what number the xp is as long as it still gives a good %? My answer would be no, it doesnt matter, but i know alot of mir players today seem to have it stuck in their head that "the bigger the numbers the better".

as long as you reduce the amount of exp gained from lower level mobs, i cant see why not.
otherwize you would have people killing lower lvl mobs for slightly less exp, using less mana / time and gaining overall more exp.

another thing to factor in, alot of mir players are very short sighted, they will log in kill a mob see "1exp gained" and think screw this, its too slow.

Yea thats what i was thinking, thats why i created this pole. I'm perfectly happy with keeping it with high numbers, but it means alot more tweaking will need to be done to get the right amount of exp. The lower the number the easier it is to predict how slow/fast levelling ill be.

there is still a cap for mas exp required of like 40b

so the higher the exp a mob gives out and to keep it just you need to up the req exp... the higher that is the less levels you have untill the cap is hit. if that makes sense lol. imo i would have low exp mobs and reduce the level requirments to still suit.

i dont like mobs giving a lot of exp to get 1%

Thats what i want to do, but worried people will kill one mob, go "oh what only 100 xp? im off cya"

What's the point?

Imo the higher the exp, makes levelling seem worse.

When I kill 50 mobs at 300,000 EXP each, and I do 0.10 EXP jus tseems like its way too hard to level lol.

Never realised why people make EXP so high, yet exp to level, is also so high.

no it dont matter, and on a high rate its a very good idea to lower the EXP needed but also lower the EXP from mobs,

well worth it, its wot i tried to do on OS, as on high rates ppl power thro the levels fast, and the max EXP i think is like 40bil... which u get to pretty fast lol
