Increasing the Speed Champions and Units Level Up

from Elemental Forums

Does anyone know what tags control this?  Version .77 leveled up too fast, but .85 levels up way too slow.  I'd like to set the leveling speed somewhere in the middle.

    <UnitStatType InternalName="UnitStat_ExpBonus">

        <DisplayNameShort>EXPB</DisplayNameShort>
        <Description>Percentage bonus to the experience earned by this unit.</Description>

        <UnitStatGrouping>AbilityStat</UnitStatGrouping>

set defaultvalue to whatever you want. It is a percentage.

Give 0.86 a try first.  0.85 was not paying out the correct amount of XP for many encounters, and this was corrected in .86.  I'm leveling at a reasonable pace now.

Heaven, do you know what that tag was set to in .77?  I thought I had zipped the Data folder up before I installed the update but I can't find the ZIP file.

It was set to 0, they have their own internal nobs to turn to change the exp system. This is what you can use to change it.

Thanks Heaven.  I'll start with 25% and see how that feels.  I don't want to go back to leveling up after every 2nd or 3rd fight, but I would like to actually get to some of the cooler level up rewards.  I explored half of a large map and killed almost every beastie I found and not one of my champions had made it to level 9.  I think they were all level 6 or 7 except for a couple of the recent adds that were level 5 or less.

You can also change it in elementaldefs, globally

<!-- ** combat rating -> experience control ** -->
<CombatRatingToExpMultiplier>0.1</CombatRatingToExpMultiplier>
<!-- <StatPointsPerLevelUp>3</StatPointsPerLevelUp> (Obsolete) -->
<MaxExpFromCombat>-1</MaxExpFromCombat> <!-- set to -1 to disable -->
<MinExpFromCombat>1</MinExpFromCombat>
<MultiplierOnPointsToLevelUnit>1</MultiplierOnPointsToLevelUnit>
<ExpBaseOnPointsToLevelUnit>3.0</ExpBaseOnPointsToLevelUnit>
<ExpMultiplierOnDesignedUnits>0.5</ExpMultiplierOnDesignedUnits>
<UnitLevelUpPerkOfferCount>5</UnitLevelUpPerkOfferCount>
<CityLevelUpPerkOfferCount>5</CityLevelUpPerkOfferCount>

 

you can place elementsdefs in your mod folder too and it will work fine
