Pet exp

Postby Birile » Fri May 09, 2008 2:41 pm

Can we change it so my grouped pets don't steal my exp now that Eilistraee is looking into which portions of 2.0 are capable of being implemented now? I'm sure this is one of the easier 2.0 aspects to implement. Thank you!

unless the code was straight stripped out of the game when shev took over, the...er..knobs?...should still be there

we went from pets not stealing xp, to pets only not stealing xp if owner was in the room, to what we have now in a matter of about..hrm..6 months i think it was.

it would be nice. yes there would be lots of powerlevelling, but i dont see that as a problem anymore. powerlevelling really only hurts new players, not old established players who have a basic understanding of most class and game mechanics

it would also make levelling an elementalist/shaman suck just a little less :)

I'm not sure that feature can really be divorced from the total exp system in 2.0. Technically it's certainly feasible - we even had it like that for a while on T2 - but balance wise...not so much. The exp system and which parts if any can be ported is something we're looking at now though.

I think its funny that a class where you can solo exp naked is asking for easier exp. High-larryess.

Kind of annoying to have to make your pets flee or just get a killshot to get all the exp.
It will be fixed in Toril 2.0.

There's so much to be said for damage exp.

there is more than one pet class, and that power is tempered by what they bring to a group in a zone
