The leveling just got worse...

Actually got a chance to test my EXP today, and here are my results:

I timed my EXP by casting MW10, which lasts 7.5 minutes for me. I was training at R5 at level 155, so I had a 10% miss rate on Chief Regrets.

EXP per MW (adjusted for 2x when active): 1.35m
EXP per hour: 10.8m
% EXP per hour: 13.2
(x1.2): 15.8

Pre-BB, spamming Meteor at Skeles without any sort of EXP buff or HS mule

EXP per hour: 18m exp/hr
% EXP per hour: 11.7
(x2): 23.4

So my raw % exp gain is faster post-BB than pre-BB even as a mage, and even with the reduced curve GMS had already. However, the lack of easy access to 2x and 4x makes the real levelling speed much slower. I'm okay with this; I'll wait for LHC.

I would be happy with that. I still find it sad how many people are whining because the exp isn't what they want..This just proves the North American community is beyond spoiled>.>
