| I am happy with my exp/fsp ratio. Before the merge I was a CL 15 with 4500/1 ratio. Three years later I am almost CL 17 with 3133/1 ratio, and my character is even above the average. |
| I saw long time ago back in 2009 that it would be wise to start from 0 on ru server.... so did so, although only after merge went full on this char and old general from com went secondary and from time to time reminds me how fsp ratio was on com vs ru. Still, I get the feeling main boom as well went even here after merge so thank you admins, that was really great move and to conclude in many ways went better than I thought it will go. So, the way I see it it was excellent decision. |
for Lawton:
but at each combat level I feel like we have become closer to the russian average over time do you not agree? |
| @merlin36, ofcourse we have come closer over the years but that still means we are playing catch up. |
| its like you are chasing a people from behind but that people also running non-stop unless he/she stopped playing |
When the merge happened my ratio was about 5.7k, now its around 4.2k. It evened out pretty well. Still not much fun to play cacth up for the past 2-3 years.
The smartest thing you could do on .com compared to .ru was not to play the game at all.
Still I am gratefull, .ru is more fun compared to what we had. I still miss our daily CGs on .com though. That was a loot of fun! |
| There are always pros and cons about every single issue but it's unfair to just hound and latch onto the bad pointers repeatedly over and over again.. From what I can see, majority of .com players (those before volcanic explosion) have a way better total FSP (and guild stats), some to the extend of getting pumped the second he/she levels up. |
27# Yes!
Maybe we (.Com players) have a worse Ratio, but from what I've seen we farm Guild points way better, so its fine. |
for _-_Kratos_-_ :
Yes i miss those old CGs too even though the current system can be fun i would like the option to play older type with same levels.
As for xp to fsp ration, I don't bother with it much. Getting average by the early stages of new combat level is enough. Does anybody know what is the average for combat level 15/16? |

i am just close to hitting that exp bonus again :(
and still 11 million xp to next level
so i guess we .com players are not that bad at all :) |

how is the average in the table defined? exp/total fsp? |
| Yeah, we .commers aren't bad at all, I started to get "pumped character" additional exp from the time I was half way level 15. This means that at half of the level I was at 1,6 times of where I was supposed to be. I suppose it will be a quick ride from here until the next level and then a few months later I'll be pumped again. |
for debeljuca:
The site does not open for me.. did you try opening it?
Is the average calculated at every xp range or at different combat levels only? My xp per fsp is around 2700 and 2800. |
for debeljuca:
Those averages are well outdated.
https://www.lordswm.com/forum_messages.php?tid=2403230&page=1#39791454 - We had a discussion surrounding the newer averages here. You have 16.5k fsp and are already 26% pumped. I have 13.6k fsp and am 4% pumped on level 15, but I am just over half way throught the level. Best way to confirm this value would be to do a hunt that is at maximum difficulty and see how far over the maximum exp value you are. |
| oh, sorry, did not know that is old data :( |
| I think it's a matter what you have done on old .com. If you were mostly camping and doing easy hunts and monsters, difference shouldn't be too high to .ru players. As far as I remember (!) TG battles were rewarded in a worse way on .com than on .ru. So if you were doing ambushes a lot, that could have been a bummer. |

Yep, I was around 24% pumped when I was at CL14, ~11k fsp. I think the "pumped" mechanic reduced the disparity between stronger and weaker players, albeit a slow method.
What's the new amounts to reach pumped status now? Especially at CL15, since I just reached here |
| Ahh, your post had the values already. I feel like an idiot now *facepalm* |
Being forever a .ru player, it is so nice to read the thankful messages to admins who decided to merge the servers. I remember I had additional character here before the merge and I agree that a lot of things like events and tournaments were rare here or did not exist at all. Obviously, a lot of topics in technical support and bugs are still ignored here, but there are the same topics in .ru forum and admins are monitoring it there.
As for the question of fsp, there has been so many changes that it is almost impossible to say when it was better. For example, many years ago, in 2007-08 it was possible to lose a battle, got 0 exp and 1-2 fps. Here is no real distinguish between .ru and .com as you can buy Abu-Bakir position and so on. |
Arctic is gone, several old LWM-players have left the game too, i think lwm is slowly dying out now :( now there is _L_e-_S__en_a__, but she is not such good community manager like Arctic, sorry but it is true, she tried it when she wanted to get a job as translator, but now she doesn't care about us.
But nevertheless i think that merge was absolutely necessary, because before the merge it was more like singleplayer game - only hunts and mercenary guild tasks and survival tournaments, but now we have all kinds of combats, new items, very active market and it is easier to earn gold, then new transport system ... - aaand bugfixes yeah, no really - on lords bugs were fixed rarely, but now since server are merged admins care about them. |
