During the double rate bonus that ended yesterday it took 12 kills for 0.1 INT. That was the case just before my INT went from 204.9 to 205. Today, I find it takes 32 kills.
I would have expected it go from 12 to 24, so what we have here is effectively a slow down of 8 kills, which is a 33% slowdown. Is this an error? if not, can we expect similar slowdowns of 33% at 210, and 215? If so, it's downright harsh.
I'd seriously consider my position if that were the case. I know that 'grinding' is part of the game, but this just isn't cricket. I have an inherent loathing of these abominable creatures (the wasps - not the blue overlords).
Can this please be rectified.

There is a slow every 5.0 int. This was the same at Valk Shaman?

Neither slow is as bad as 166-176 at nightmares.

Good to see you playing, Rona.

I don't think there's any issue. It slows a little bit every 5.0 which adds up over time.

At 200 int was taking me 6 mins for 0.1 int.

At 225 takes almost double that (11-12 mins).

This was during double xp, unrested ^^

With rested, should be about the same without the event.

It takes me approx 40 wasps per int at 220+

Also it’s a 1.15x slow every 5.0

The comments aren't exactly the same. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, and maybe this is it:-
I have taken the daily quest (killing 200 wasps.) As I hit .1 INT, I check (CTRL J) how many I've slain. I have done this twice now, and the difference at start and end has been 32 (twice). Perhaps the quest has a bug!

Ramzo and I have commented the same slowdowns albeit differently. 15% slow every 5.0 mean 75% slower at 225 than 200, and as he says nearly twice the amount.

Big whangonein went from 70 int to 230 int in The two weeks during the event non rested. Just do int when you save up enough rested 👍
