EXPERIENCE & EXP CHAINS

<link to lots of xp tables and formulae>

"WHAT YOU GET"

there are two kinds of experience -- "EARNED XP" and "PASSUP XP".

bulletEARNED XP is what you earn (mainly by killing things .. also by doing skills, casting spells, turning in pincers etc ...). obviously, for every xp point you earn, you get a point of xp.
bulletRAW PASSUP XP is what your vassals give you. for every point of xp that your vassals give you, your vassal passes you a point of RAW PASSUP XP. but that's not how much xp you actually get ... you are really credited with NET PASSUP XP
bulletNET PASSUP XP (the actual amount of xp that shows up in your greedy little hands) is the RAW PASSUP XP ... MODIFIED BY A RECEIVED XP MULTIPLIER. that multiplier varies based upon your adjusted leadership skill. this multiplier ranges from 68% (adjusted leadership skill 0f 0) to 125% (adjusted leadership skill of 163). that is right -- leadership CAPS at 168 ... and when you get that cap, you get 1.25 points of xp for each point that your vassal gives you.

        i.e. NET_PASSUP_XP = RAW_PASSUP_XP * RECEIVED_XP_MODIFIER

 

"WHAT YOUR PATRON GETS FROM YOU"

there are two formulas for how much xp you give to your patron .. one for EARNED xp and one for PASSUP xp. both are based on adjusted loyalty

bulletPASSUP XP, you generally pass up roughly 15-35% of what you actually EARNED to your patron, depending on YOUR adjusted loyalty skill. the rate is ~23% (actually 22.9%) at skill 200, 30% at 300 and 37% at 400 ---- that's the RAW PASSUP XP that your patron sees from each point of xp that you go out and earn. NOTE: passup xp rate never "CAPS."
bulletPASSTHRU XP, you generally passthru between 60%-75% of the NET PASSUP XP that you vassals gave to you. (60% at adjusted loyalty of 100, 75% at 200). NOTE: passthru xp rate DOES "CAP."

 

SOME EXPECTATIONS?

bulletOFFLINE: When you're offline -- your passthru rates should be the MAX 93.75% (pretty damn close ... may be level dependent)
(note: this threshold should probably be modified at lower levels). this should include:
bulletAdjusted Leadership of 163+. This maximizes the received XP modifier at 125%. Assuming (a) 12 vassals and (b) NO minimum time online, the means that you needed to have a buffed leadership of 86. This is pretty easily accomplished with a leadership and a self buff ... and does NOT require training of leadership.
86 * (1 + 12 * 0.075) = 163.4
bulletAdjusted Loyalty of 200+. This maximized the PASSTHRU XP at 75%. Even starting with 10 Self, pushing your loyalty to 130 base, fealty 6 buff, willpower 5 buff gives you a buffed loyalty of 172. ADD 60 hours online with your patron (25% bonus to adjusted loyalty) gives you an adjusted loyalty of 215. This should EASILY be within reach of anyone over L40.
(130 + 35 + 35/4) * (1 + 0.25) = 215
bulletIf you do both of these, the NET PASSTHRU rate hits the 93.75% CAP.
125% * 75% = 93.75%
