Multiclass penalty on quest

Post by Terenfel » Wed Feb 14, 2018 6:52 pm

seems my character that should have a multiclass penalty (-20%) that is disabled on the server is still getting the penalty on xp from quests.

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure scripted xp rewards don't get penalized like this.

You should also take in account ECL as a possible source.

its ECL is lower then the other character so its should get more XP if it was ECL. Same level. same race, only difference is one character is multiclassed (two base classes) the other is not.

As far as I'm aware it's a fixed XP amount and ECL/Class isn't factored. I'll poke YCE about it

I can confirm, unless the experience decays after reaching X level, I note a 20% decrease.

yes. now tested this. adventure mode on and off dont change it.. get 2000 adventure xp and 800 xp from the same quest when taken with or without adventure mode on

and my other Char (that is still multiclassed same level, but within the multiclass rules of 1 level of each other) gets 2000 adventure xp and 1000 xp for the same quest.

tryed other quest not just the one i used for test that does that, seems to be all (with only trying about half)

I noticed a difference as well. A friend and I did the 3 same quests, he got more flat exp on all of them than me, despite beeing one level above me (When we accepted the quest we were both the same lvl).

I got 1k exp flat on each and 2,5k adventure exp.

He got 1,250 exp flat and 2,5k adventure exp.

Sorry if this is a thread necro/bump from the depths, but is this bug still present?

Aw, that's unfortunate - got an idea for a bard-paladin-fighter and it sounds like he'll be affected. Might just have to bite the bullet and embrace slower levelling. Thanks for checking!

made a new character too. and as soon as the class combi should have a multiclass penalty the xp from quests dropped by 20% (1000 xp quests now gives 800 xp)

Just to necro-bump. I believe this bug is still present, I have one character who multiclasses against their race's favored class and they are getting less XP for the same quests as my other who has no penalty.
