RAF 3x exp question..

#0 - Aug. 20, 2008, 2:38 p.m.

Hi all, i got a question about the 3x exp thing of the RAF, well i created a trial account for myself to help my main account characters to booster their lvling was trying it to check if it was a good idea to upgrade it to a full account to pay 2 or 3 months, ok well i was using a lvl 40+ warrior and the trial was a lvl 1, so the 3x experience quest was working great lvld 3 levels on the warrior w/o problem, but then 1 day after i created the trial like 2 night ago i was on my hunter lvl 20+ with the trial (lvl 1 or 2) and turned some quests and worked nice the 3x xp, but then i started getting normal exp from quests even with my trial present there, this was like an hour before the restart, so i check the forums and it says that it was a bug, the only way to get it its if the characters are 4 lvls away from the other, BUT then i looked at this:

***If both players are present, experience gained from quests that are not trivial (gray difficulty) will be tripled for both characters****

as u can see it says 4 levels for the exp of KILLING MOBS, BUT dont say anything (check it out) about u need to be at 4 levels or less to get the 3x exp from turning quests, so my question is: if i upgrade the trial to a full account and pay for it, can i get the bonus quest turning quest 3x, even if my veteran is lot higer lvl than my RAF guy now upgraded? thx for ur answers and sorry for the big post, had to tell it just as it happened. :P

Q u o t e:
but in that link that i posted on my mssg it says "RAF ultimate FAQ!!" as tittle, and if u read the benefits part carefully, they dont even mention about the level requeriments for quests 3x exp

The restrictions have actually been listed within our online FAQ since the feature's inception. :)

Q u o t e:

Do I always gain triple experience while I am linked to my recruit?

No, only when you are partied with a character on the linked account and both players are present when slaying the monster or completing the quest. Also, if the two characters are not the same level (4 or more levels difference), only the lower-level character is given the experience boost.

Also, within the thread you referenced:

Q u o t e:
If the mob is trivial to either character, no experience bonus is earned.

This means that if you have Player A (level 50 veteran character) grouped with Player B (level 30 RaF character) and they kill a mob that is level 32, since the mob is trivial to Player A, no bonus experience is awarded.

Q u o t e:
If one player is 4 or more levels higher than the other but the encounter is not trivial, only the lower player gains the experience bonus.

This means that if you have Player A (level 15 veteran character) grouped with Player B (level 11 RaF character) and they kill a mob that is level 13, only Player B would receive the experience bonus.

We originally understood that players had to be the same level in order to receive the bonus, though later amended this to within 4 levels. That said, the whole level-1-gains-trip-XP-for-level-56 thing has always been unintended.

Sorry for any confusion!
