Rumblebore Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 I need the following to volunteer for a test of what I believe to be a way of getting good AA experience off of killing green mobs. AA Points XP(I have read) remains pretty consistent from level 51 to 65. I know - it can't be done, right? Well, the details will remain in my head for now. I need someone who fits the following profile: 1) Level 51 min, prefer as close to that level as possible, although having at least 1 who is higher will be a nice control. 1-2 people MAX. 2) Uses an UI that gives percentages on the AA XP bar, so that XP gain can be measured in percentage points. 3) Is willing to keep their mouth shut until we test the heck out of this thing, 4) Is ready to invest LOTS of hours to try and make this thing test out. 5) Will go Anon while we farm the greens - yes that means I want the whereabouts kept secret for now. IF (and that is a big IF, I know) this works out and the XP IS good for blues in AA Points, then we will share it. Details will be shared with those 1-2 who I hook up with. When we confirm my suspicions, then it will be shared with the leaders. Please note - This is something that I can see Verant nerfing very quickly if they get wind of it. That is why I want it kept secret. getting AA XP from greens should NOT be possible, yet my experience this weekend says it can be done. Send me an IM through this forum if you will be willing to participate and meet the criteria above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nurlaten Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 I get aa off of some greens, it is a tiny amount and in my opinion not worth the effort. When i go to gunthak and most mobs are low light blue to green i switch to aa, atleast 1 bar moves a little instead of neither moving at all. I've never written any numbers down (even though my ui has percentage points), but i can tell you that it is basically worthless. It is my understanding that aa is based on if you were level 51, so i mobs con to a level 51 char determines the amount of aaexp per kill. This would be why many mobs con green to me at 57 and i can still get some aa off of them. I think Sony (VI sold eq) knows about this, but doesn't care to fix the coding, due to the fact that the amount of aa is negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altarial Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 I'll help if I fit the lvl requirement. I have the UI that says the exact %. I've never tried killing greens (hehe battleclerics like me only go after the blues!), but I'd like to help you test it out if I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblebore Posted April 29, 2003 Author Share Posted April 29, 2003 Umm - The amount of XP I received was NOT negligible. It was almost 3/4 of a Blue per success. And the mobs are below level 20. Still looking for interested people. Altarial, you could be the higher level, but I still need someone else closer to level 51 - for comparison between me and them, then against you.

Wallorn Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 I will assist although I would have to be told how to set up UI that does percentages? I see tick marks in my bars. Anyhow this is interesting and can spend alot of time if needed. I am now lvl 55 might be too high for your uses. IF not contact me pls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nurlaten Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 Hmm... mobs below level 20 giving 3/4 a blue of aaexp, sounds like we need to go pbaoe style of these suckers. This little tidbit of info has perked my interest in this experiment, although now level 58 (a little higher than you wanted), i do plan of getting a few aa's before i start reg exp again, so this would work with my "master plan." Wally - on the ui with percentages i posted in the general forum about one, i'll bump it up, so you can take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblebore Posted May 1, 2003 Author Share Posted May 1, 2003 Firstly, a BIG apology to all of you. I may have experienced a major brain fart on this. Here is what I do know now. This was actually a quest for tradeskills. I performed the first step last night again, of 3 steps I had taken when I saw the XP bar where it was, and I got zip for XP. I have to do another step, and then combine them into the last step, but at this point it looks like I missed where I got the XP from. Yep - I got over-eager and probably associated the wrong thing with the XP gain. I apologize for getting all your hopes up. But the basic point is also true - Questing for XP is possible, especialy with PoP quests, which do net you actual measurable XP gain. It is just that collecting all the items is a Pain...... However, Mr. Ranger can tell stories of XP gain through PoP quests......... Will complete all the steps and report, but it looks like I was Very Wrong. Again, sorry all.
