So, with the recent conclusion of the leveling event in the closed beta, I thought I would make a thread to discuss the revised EXP table.
Based off of the rankings from the frontpage as of right now (Aug 12th), here's the data on what levels people reached:
A total of 85 players reached lvl 15+ to receive Maple Points. This was out of 196 characters made, with 148 of those reaching at least level 2.
The EXP table is quicker than the oldest 1x rates, but it more closely resembles the rebalanced rates that came ~v71 (still far before big bang). Here are some comparisons for key levels, using data from wayback (old 1x):
Personally, I was very pleased with the EXP changes. It's easier, but still relatively challenging, as shown by not everyone hitting lvl 40 too easily. The quest buffs were welcome - they felt good enough to finish, instead of being pure time wasters.
I'm interested to see how others feel about the event and the EXP changes in general. It fits a lot of people's wishes for a faster exp rate, without being too different. One point of feedback I heard was that lvl 30-35 is a tough to get through, especially for classes without first job mastery skills, so perhaps buffing that area and nerfing another to compensate would be a good idea.
