A tip for Rested XP

1
Author Content Date
Isylver made a good point recently which I think is just good common sense that everybody should know.

Maybe I'm late to the party but I thought it was worth a post.

Rested XP is obviously based on your level. The high your level and the lower your stats, the more benefit you get out of rested XP.


So if you've been doing a lot of STR training, you'll notice that you get much less gains out of the rested XP for STR than if you were to have lower STR. So it is beneficial to use your rested XP on your lowest stats.

Does this make any sense? I'm not doing very well am I.

The best way to do it is get high int, then level on rested doing dex/str

I've been using rested on int when i logon and doing some STR normally. But I like the idea of doing con only with rested too.

Are there any other helpful tips like this?

I always heard the rumour that if you leave INT low then it will slow down STR and DEX gains, but if you level your INT then they go faster? I'm guessing its the same principle of the level % and just placebo though.

I always do con on rested, be silly not to really! Best off doing in the farm when a higher level though as guaranteed hitting non stop. It just takes more % per stat I think doesn't it, it doesn't effect the actual time it takes?

Yeah it will always take the same amount of time regardless of level. The best thing to do is int till high level then do str/dex which are slower stats than int.

Everytime I hunt now I do .5 con and then do my str/dex. Thats until I reach 22 anyway.

False, having more int than str doesn't influence str gains at all.

It is my belief that it doesn't matter for % when you do int and str.

However, if you level with int (Which is quicker then str/dex) and level str/dex on rested you will level quicker then doing it vice versa

Or as other people are levelling the 'normal' way by hunting everyday doing str/dex till say 85 str, then int till 85, str till 110, int till 110. This is alot slower then just doing int till 110/120 and leveling off rested exp doing str/dex as it'll take alot longer to gain these stats therefore rested lasts longer. Apologies if it's not worded well -_-

You hit a mob and gain EXP
The higher your level, the more EXP required for your % bar to go up - rested doubles this
Based on your weapon / the mobs iMaxXP / mob str/int you will gain EXP in STR/DEX/INT (The higher these stats are the more xp required to gain a stat)

Example: If you are level 60 and have 40 int, your level xp will go up very slowly, but your INT xp will not require a great deal of xp to gain a stats, thus getting a low % per stat ratio.
Added rested XP which is only available for a certain amount of %, you will use this much more efficiently and get seemingly faster and more stats from your rested xp... but no more gains overall than if you weren't using rested

Put simply, rested makes you gain % in quicker RL time, it doesn't make you gain more stats that if you weren't on rested.

Just use rested to save IRL time on the stats you want to gain.

This is my understanding of how it works, could be wrong but i'm sure isylver / finito can correct me if i am :P
