Negative numbers

Aero · Post by **Aero** » Thu Aug 21, 2003 3:32 am

I was down 13 mil last weekend and I spent 4 hours on Saturday and 2 on Sunday at VoD in fellows. The negative number only went down from 13 mil to 4mil. Now it has been said that one quarter of my earned Xp goes towards my quota. So you are saying that in 6 hours at 30+ mil per hour that I made only about 36 million xp total (6 mil per hour) ??? I was expecting to be way into the plus side after that concentrated effort.

Then I see others with 200 to 300 mil to the plus side and wonder how that was possible. It couldn't be macros, cause we all know that UCM is not allowed in this clan, so there must be some other explanation.

The Summer is almost over which is the busy season for me. Just got off work at 10pm and the day starts again at 6am tomorrow. This puts me at a very difficult spot. Can't play at all during the week unless we are rained out, but can play during the weekends between the chores and errands. Later during the Fall and especially the Winter months there will be more spare time to do some serious gaming.

Again, it was hoped that my efforts last weekend would put me in the plus, but some equation doesn't know how to count very well.

Aero, who was in the fellow with you? If it was people who are below you in the chain, a big part of the XP you were getting from the fellowship was actually vassal/chain XP flowing up to you and getting counted toward the XP per hour count for the hunting session.

Somewhere between 25% and 40% - 50% of what you and the fellowship earn from killing things get passed up from you as vassal XP to your patron. Showing 30+ million XP per week in your fellow, I'm guessing that at least part of the fellow was made of vassals or downl-level chainers?

back when phade had active vassals I was hitting well over 150% on him without even hunting because of the mad vassal xp I was getting.

Well with so many in the clan, it would be hard to say how many of them were in our hunting party, but I knew of only a couple clansman in the fellow on Saturday. On Sunday, I knew of no one. Guess I will have to look at the circles and squares on the radar.

I see what you mean since my patron was getting 150% of the fellow kills because I was there. I gotta get my vassal into more of my fellows

After I get my car's winshield wipers and washer repaired on Saturday, I will try to get online some more.
