question about exp in OH

Post by Tainted Luv » Tue Nov 25, 2003 10:56 pm

hey guys, im considering joing the OH :-) would like to know something about it first though.

Could anyone in the spot where i would be inserted (i assume this means the bottom for a new member) tell me approx how much exp/day they receive from the chain?

Tainted, everyone who joins the OH joins at the bottom. There are a few reasons for this, with the first and driving reason being our drive to not reset the loyalty bonus that builds up over time. The other reason, and the one that allows up to keep the loyalty bonuses built up, and that everyone in the OH is 126+, therefore we can swear anywhere. I suppose a third reason the new insertees are placed at the bottom is to reward the longevity of some of the chain members by placing the new people under them. The main reason, though, is to preserve the loyalty bonus as much as possible (after 240 hours of ingame time sworn to your current patron your loyalty gets a 100% bonus, so the XP you pass up from hunting is also doubled at that point).

As far as XP goes, it tends to move around a bit depending on school schedules, holidays, etc, but over the long haul the XP probably runs from about 30 million a day or so for the bottom person (currently one of my characters) and builds fairly quickly going up in the chain until it is about 100 or 120 million a day. It drops off again at the very top to about 80 or 90 million a day. There are places in the Food Chain where the XP is better than it is at the bottom of the OH, but overall, for XP in the LD chain, the OH is the place to be.

If you mean the very bottom of the food chain, then it really depends on how much a few of us hunt with the pusher.

I have hunted with the pusher for 150 million xp in one day a few times. This would be approximately 50 million xp passed to you just from my pushing.

One night we had 2 pushers in the fellow and got more than 120 million xp. This should turn out to be approximately 60-70 million xp pushed to you from the pushers!

Was referring to the food chain here. The OH varies way too much to comment!
