Quantifying the Ruthless Character EXP Penalty

That is oddly terrifying to ponder on, imagine if not even 50% through 99 is anywhere near 100? What if half way through 100 is closer to 50% of 99 to 100 than from 1 to 99... This is more than terrifying to me, I don't know why but it creeps me the fuck out.

Creeps me out too. It's not quite that extreme though. The progression of the penalty does slow down so the last few levels are all getting roughly 5-6% of what a standard char gets.


So the last 2 levels "only" need very roughly 20x the total raw exp needed for those levels in std! At least we know a ballpark figure.

I tested Erebix in T12 at lvl 98 and got 267 exp. I appreciate the thread, and let me know if there's anything else you want me to test.

Thank you very much for testing and huge congrats on the 98 and on being #1 yet again!

Pools had already contacted me after my last post but I never added it to the thread, sorry. Said he got 5.399% exp from something; got 331 vs 6130 normal league. He wrote the numbers he had compared back before quitting but didn't remember if it was Barrows or something else, or which tier it was.

So 5.399 roughly at 98. Most likely a nice round 5% at 99.

Your T12 Erebix will likely be about 5.4% once I find someone to kill it in standard. I don't have any 98 chars.

Btw, do you plan to grind on strand_gottagofast to 100 some day or don't care much about the perm league ladders?

Dunno, currently grinding a bit, maybe I'll grind it whenever I'm bored of the current league. 100 is still far away though.
