Hi guys, I am fairly new. What is resting experience bonus? How can I receive those exp?
Thank you!
Hello, and welcome.
Here is a little more information on the Resting XP Bonus -
[Click Here - Resting Experience Bonus]
I'll outline the fundamental aspect of resting XP bonus.
This system allows players who remain idle for a period of time to accumulate a 'pot' of experience points that will store itself as a resting bonus.
The bonus will increase the longer a player remains idle - this can be activated by being logged out of the game or from generally standing in the town's safe zones. It doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't hunt when you don't have a bonus, it just means it will be a little slower when you don't have it. Basically the system encourages players to take healthy breaks in between long hauls by compensating for the loss of time by increasing the amount of experience earned after a break, but also aids other players who sometimes spend their free time doing other things or supporting the community instead of just heavy levelling.
Your character level will determine how many points of experience your pool can store over time, and will also contribute to what % of bonus output you will receive.
For example
(sorry I don't have the exact figures in front of me):
Your character is level 70.
You've just been levelling without any resting xp, then you decide to go afk in the safe zone while you have your dinner for an hour.
You come back and notice a buff icon appear: "Resting Experience Bonus" giving you, let's say 14,000,000 amount of experience points with a 400% experience rate increase.
Basically, what this means is that every monster you kill will give you 400% more experience from it when you kill it (so instead of say '10,000' per kill, you will start getting '50,000' per kill). But this will only allow you to receive 400% bonus experience up until you achieved the equivalent of 14,000,000 experience points emptying your resting experience pool (in this example).
So from a mathematical point of view:
Monster (x) gives you 10,000 per kill.
Normally you would need to kill 1,400 monsters to have achieved 14,000,000 experience points.
With the resting bonus experience, you will have only needed to kill 280 monsters to have achieved 14,000,000 experience points, after the pool has depleted, the experience you receive from that monster will return to 10,000 per kill.
Your resting experience bonus will stack with any other experience enhancers too such as Broths, Soups etc.
