Experience

Experience is gained through killing monsters and leveling up tradeskills. Unlike classic, quests do not give experience.

Monsters

Summary

Experience that an individual player receives from killing a monster is based on the amount of their experience versus the level of the monster.

Grouping

Players killing in a group will receive an amount of experience based on the single highest experienced person in the group.

Bonus Experience

The experience bonus formula, as stated in changelog is: clamp(2.1209 * highest aa/ sqrt(sum of (players aa^2)), 1, 2)

The following summarizes how grouping with players of various relative amounts of experience will affect the group experience bonus:

Tradeskills

Summary

Each tradeskill provides a slightly different amount of experience per level up, with the general trend that more difficult tradeskills should reward additional exp. For example, fishing will provide less experience than tailoring.

The amount of experience rewarded each time a tradeskill levels up will scale with the level of the tradeskill. Such that leveling from 199 to 200 will provide significantly more exp than leveling from 9 to 10.
