Lochy Edery – All XP Values Guide

Which actions generate XP?

The following actions generate XP:

• killing mobs and bosses
• finishing missions
• succesfully harvesting plants

Killing mobs and bosses:

• It makes no difference if your companion or yourself kill a mob, you gain the same amount of experience
• You only gain experience when one of your companions or yourself do the final blow. Np. exploding goblins that suicide or kill other mobs don’t generate any XP. It makes no difference if you “tagged” a exploding goblin before he explodes. You need to land the final blow.

Finishing missions

• The XP reward from missions is affected by %XP Gain

Successfully harvesting plants

• If you have the perk “Bountiful Harvest”, harvesting two ingredients does not generate more XP

How does difficulty affect XP gain?

To my dissappointment,

the difficulty only affects the final mission rewardand not the XP gained from killing mobs / harvesting plants.

BUT, the %XP Gain stat affects the final mission reward, so playing hard becomes more valueable the stronger your characters becomes and the more %XP Gain you have accumulated.

For example with 300% XP Gain, the hard mission reward will generate 2400 XP, wherelse the medium mission reward only generates 1200 XP.

Base XP values for completing missions:Łatwy:

• 200 XP

Średni:

Twardy:

• 800 XP

What kind of mob categories are there?

Before listing all mobs and their base XP value, I need to explain the different kind of mobs that are present in the game.

*Spoiler Alert*

Actually there are not many different mobs regarding XP gain and most of them are just a reskin for different races. They mainly differ in the weapon and armor they carry.

Which missions generate the most XP?

Ogólnie mówiąc, for short missions (np. sieges, defences, arena fights), you want to take the hard difficulty (of course only if you have an easy time on hard), because the final mission reward it pretty substantial.

For example the XP gain for arena missions is always the same:

4 Szefowie * 250xp + mission reward

Łatwy: 1000 XP + 200 XP = 1.200 XP

Średni: 1000 XP + 400 XP = 1.400 XP

Twardy: 1000 XP + 800 XP = 1.800 XP

Combining this with an %XP Gain of 300%, you get the following values:

Łatwy: 3.600 XP

Średni: 4.200 XP

Twardy: 5.400 XP

Considering you have a strong build and easily shred the bosses, the extra 1.200 XP is totally worth playing on hard – especially as you get 2 boss chests from arena fights that will generate better loot on hard.

Another great mission you should always do when it is available is Defensive Sieges.

For defensive sieges, I recommend playing on Medium, as the main XP gain is from mobs in this mission. The extra 400XP in the end makes almost no differences.

Aggressive Sieges are also very good for XP.

BUTmy final review is that

the hard difficulty is not rewarding enough. Considering the risk of loosing all your equipment by dying is not worth the extra XP. And since crafting makes the best gear anyway, the iLvL increase on hard difficulty can be disregarded.

When playing new characters, it makes no sense to play on hard difficulty,as you clear the mobs much faster on Medium and they generate the same amount of XP.
