100%... VZTZ XP was perfect, you still had to earn your levels and you got to PvP and compete end game in a timely manner.. all while maintaining a real life, having a job, and a girlfriend.

I would be happy with 20 - 25% if it would bring more players back to the server.

honestly, i play pvp games for the pvp. yes, pve is fun and all but not spending months trying to get max level in order to compete for raid mobs, etc .. mass pvp is the best type of pvp out there in my honest opinion..
although mid level pvp (level 25-35) is fun .. its not likely it will be fair (i.e, oor level 50 druids healing etc)

i loved vztz in the sense it took little effort to get max level in order to experience high end pvp. since vztz enabled two boxing, finding groups wasn't so necessary. this was only helpful because of the low population - (as i said before vztz had such low population because it did not have a good anti hacking system - not because of it's high exp rate)

i feel having a similar exp rate (to vztz) or 50% more as r99 is right now, it will persuade people to log in more often knowing they can get more done in game with the limited time most people have because of real life. (school/work/gf's/family time/social lives, etc)
in addition, having an increased exp rate, people feel more 'dangerous' and in turn will stand and fight in a match more often then just gate/run away/plug from it.

just my opinion from the emu experience i've had. hope this helps.

126 votes so far

91 for increase
35 for no increase


as much as I'd like to vote "no increase (watch it burn)", I just can't lol. XP is honestly brutally slow on this server with such a low population.

I'll vote 20%, in classic terms it will be hardly noticeable at later levels. It will, however, make the first levels go by faster (who knows if it will be fast enough tho without trial/error).


I'd imagine 20-25% max wouldn't hurt the classic immersion. 50% or more would make the game seem cheap tho, might as well add in instant lvl 45 with 5k plat and free planar gear/weps.

15 levels ago, I agreed with increasing the xp from 1-30 signifigantly then spreading out the xp from 30 to 50. Now that I'm approaching 30, I would hate to have my next 20 levels take even longer than they currently would.

BTW, I voted for 25% for all levels but wouldn't bitch if it just stayed the same as it is now...

Default Slow XP

Slow leveling was one of the reasons I stopped playing, I just do not have time to lvl a toon up again. A lot of us were teenagers when we played the classic game and had a lot of spare time.. I am married now with kids and although I enjoy the game I have a lot of other things I would rather do for 8 hours a day.. the best way to even things out would be to have a tiered xp system, this would allow players with less time to remain competative with the rest of the player base, here is an example..

This would reset at midnight every 24 hours...
First hour online: 100 percent xp bonus
Second hour online: 50 percent xp bonus
After 2 hours go back to normal XP 0 percent bonus, players who can only play one or two hours a day would see some decent progress.... Just a thought.

Also i don't know why all the hardcore PVPers were "poking fun" as it were to the blubes as they are called... "Don't bother starting a toon on this server you blubie pu$$ie.... You will just quit anyway...." In reality the people from the blue server were fun to play with and they were also our best chance at a decent population, the "hardcore pvpers" seem to have ruined this with the nonstop poop that flows out of thier pieholes both in game and on the forums.

I wonder what % that voted "Happy with the current rate" are most likely already 50.

I noticed the majority of people who voted happy with current rate are Nihilum members. Don't want to turn this into a RNF though, EXP boost please. (You'd not only see new people come and those who quit return, but also the disenchanted/bored 50's who have no desire to do the painful grind to 50 again as a melee with this shit exp, they too would return to reroll)
