Well like the title says i want to suggest higher xp rewards on the pve server. (NO higher xp for the pvp servers)
So why do i suggest this well let's do some math:
I have 121 hours of playtime (only on pve)
And i am Rank 5 (plunderer)
While of course i didn't do mission running the entire time let's late take away some hours and make it a nice 100hours of mission running.
So in these 100 hours i made it to plunderer that means 9500xp
Of course there is now a little bonus to the xp of the mission reward.
For the next rank (Raider) you need 10,000xp (one would think now it would take another 100hours but thats of course is not the case)
So far so good.
So let's take a look at the mission. Let's assume you are a solo player. That means you will have difficulties doing plunderer missions so the best option is to go with marauder missions.
An average marauder mission gives around 250xp and takes arround 30minutes.
So lets do some math we need 10,000xp and get 250xp per mission we need 30minutes for:
so 10,000xp divided by 250 means you need to do 40missions to get the xp that are needed for the rank up, so lets take the time in
we now multiply 40 by 30 and get 1200 minutes that means it takes arround 20hours of mission running to make that 1 rank.
well lets look at the other ranks and assume it takes arround 25% more time to make it
Rank 7 takes 25hours
Rank 8 31hours
Rank 9 39hours
Rank 10 48hours
And now take everything together you need arround 243hours of running missions, that of course is only a time based on assumptions and the real time would be even higher because with higher ranks and higher missions the difficulty increases and it will take longer. Lets say you need 250 hours of mission running even that does not count in travel time that would add more to it.
If we compare that to other mmo's like WoW it takes arround 5 times longer to reach the max lvl.
So what do i want to say with all this, well simply people who play only on the pve server are kind of screwed. pvp gets massives buffs and bonuses on xp, so should pve gets buffed but with the addition only on the pve server.
