Wow, so instead of fixing the event, or giving what was promised (+150% boost), add another xp talisman (so any new/low level toon has to spend 5m to use both)
AND add a pay2win item on top?
lol seriously?
59 minutes ago, ohfuggle said:He means a penalty exists, the description of the event alludes that the penalty was REMOVED. Instead you of getting 0 xp when a 15 level disparity exists, you get some experience but at a greatly reduced rate.
The XP level penalty still exists, but instead of getting 0 exp for 15 levels or more, you get treated like a 14 level difference..
For reference..
1 Level difference = 98% of xp is gained
8 Level difference = 81% of xp is gained
14 level difference = 19% of xp is gained.
refer to below link for the full "table"
(https://eu.4gameforum.com/threads/638688/)
This table of course is based on 4Game's rates, based on your screen shots it looks like its about 12% of xp.
Keep in mind you get NO drops of any sort adena or otherwise when grouped with someone 9 levels below you, so this isn't even worth it unless you're desperate to afk grind.
Your best bet is to find a group doing low level RBs, buy a cursed maingauche and go if you want to level an alternate character quickly.
I also tested this having a lv40 group with lv78s in forge of gods for 8 hours, the lv40 got one level exactly. We got no evolutionary stones etc, 100% not worth it.
If you're trying to boost a toon, It needs to be in Duo, setting it with a full party is an extreme nerf to the xp it will get, because you boost by 2.2 for 9 people. then divide by 9. then that toon only gets 12% of that amount.... of course it doesnt gain any xp. now put it in duo. boost that xp by 1.5, divide by 2, then give it 12% of that xp. number is much higher.
100000 x 2.2 = 220000 / 9 = 24444 * .12 = 2933
100000 x 1.5 = 150000 / 2 = 75000 * .12 = 9000
See the problem?
In the information given, the ingame announcement states that xp will be BOOSTED by 150% (+150%) which would be 250% of base XP. As has been posted here in several other threads, the xp is actually only boosted by +50% (which would read xp will be set to 150%, not +150%). The wording is confusing and causing a lot of people to feel extremely cheated by the event, To give you an idea, Im being boosted by a high level toon in an elemental zone, at the current rate of xp, it will take me 10 hours at least of straight grind to get what I was getting from cake (200m xp). Im not asking for an easy button, I understand the cake/fioti was a bad idea because it literally causes the players to unintentionally ddos the server. I think this will also bring in higher revenue, because some of us with top level parties/chars will full boost to reach party goals like 80/81 in shorter amounts of time.
Can you please look into setting the rate to +150 instead of @150. Thank you.
They cant allow full +150% xp... if you are leveling 70 and below thats fine, but at 80+.... you will have toons that break things at 80 and especially 81 i dont think you realize just how fast the xp is even with this minor boost.
Now the new client wont install. It says it was going to an launched my old installation after a small patch. Lol

+1 the amount of stupidity from all these people after this game has worked the same for years. Item boxes get deleted. Items inside normally dont.

Edit for above post:
Talking Island, GM's had to Force spawn Fioti, and server got no winner of the item. At the 11:00 spawn.
Also event is disabled, so TI will be missing spawns.
GMs didnt force spawn fioti. They killed cake and fioti manually when they spawned. In that few seconds, scripted players def got xp rewards
No they arent deleting the actual rewards... they need to rr the server to force everyone to relog. If you dont think theres hundreds still logged in from before update, dunno what to tell you.
New launcher does bring 3 client limit supposedly. But alot of people still have accounts logged in from before the update. If they restart server, should help significantly to amount of clientz logged in.
Every cake that spawns *mostly* gives a reward, so if 10 spawned, you now have ~10 +15 top a weapons on your server. Gratz!
@Juji arent we supposed to be able to party wide level gaps?
No scenarios I tried seem to be working.
Lol dude got +16 b weapon on talking island. Rip
So what does this event actually mean? No difference to xp that i can find??
