experience reading issue

[KillerJohn]

Because I don't play the game, I have no clue how much experience you get when doing greater rifts or anything else.

Based on the anonymous error logs on dashboard, I noticed problems...

-CASE#1----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
somebody getting 157 979 712 000 (157bn) exp for "something" after he returned to town from Alcarnus.
In the exact same moment he/she leveled from paragon 3199 to 3200 (holy shit...) (hoooooooooooly shit: I just checked diabloprogress and saw the paragon leaderboard... **** my life...)

His total gained paragon experience changed from
474 576 988 721 232
to
474 734 968 433 232

-CASE#2----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somebody got 73 413 058 650 experience in New Tristram after returned from "Not the cow level"

-CASE#3----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somebody got 75 990 937 600 experience in New Tristram after returned from Southern Highlands

-CASE#4----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somebody got 150 437 500 experience IN TOWN for minutes, once in ever ~7-10 seconds (Hidden Camp, The Survivors' Enclave, Bastion's Keep Stronghold). He didn't even moved out from town.



Is there any chance those are a REAL, proper values?

Maybe other player completed the GR

mh sounds really strange.
case 4 MIGHT be bounties. i have no numbers on how much xp a completed bounty gives but that could be it.
the others are odd. especially the areas they are comming from. if it was a greater rift they were coming from this would make perfect sense... any chance the location was just wrongly logged/recognized?
for debugging purporses you maybe should also log when a greater rift was closed. if the xp gain is immediately after the grift close, you got your answer.

the scenario i can imagine here:
a group cleared a pretty high grift (i dont have any numbers, a quick gr75 gave me about 15bn xp for closing it, something around gr100 might give you way above 100bn), then the th user upgraded his gems and went on to search for pools of reflection. in the meantime the other players upgraded their gems and finished the grift. this way the th user would get the reward while being somewhere else or just returning to town because nobody else talked to orek in town or whatever^^

the case 4 looks very suspicious..

I totally don't play in those level range, so i can't really help.

But according to Diablo 3 Gem Calculator it's a good range for a p3200 guy.

For the xp gain, i just runned a gr70.
Before closing : 55 781 420 111
After closing : 69 557 839 311
XP pool active, No lvl up.

the first 3 are perfect fits for greater rift closes.
case number 4 could be bounties. but as i said im not sure about the exact amount. question is: did he gain 150 million xp every few seconds or 150 million xp in total over a few minutes?

once in every few seconds. multiple times.

[prrovoss]

once in every few seconds. multiple times.

how often?

[JackCeparou]

Well, there is this quest/event (don't remember the name) in the cimetary with cows.
Back then it was rewarding xp even for ppl in town.
Each killed cow give a 'big' amount of xp, in T13 150 millions is probably not so nuts.

[SeaDragon]

Don't forget that China has 25% experience plus
A lot of people are playing 100+, even 110+
Before the death of GR BOSS barbarian and witchdoctor can find XP pool

i just completed a t13 bounty:

if you got 3 people completing bounties and the 4. one is idling in town you get your case 4.

Case 1, Case 2, Case 3 are perfectly fine for Greater Rift closing (you pick a Pool of Reflection before handing in the reward). Most common areas for Pool of Reflection are "Not the Cow Level" (always 100% guarantee of 2 pools) - Highlandy/Cemetery is always checked by players manually since a pool spawning spot is always close by to the Waypoint. I cannot confirm if the values are correct or appropriate though.


As for the Case 4: That is a bounty leecher (staying in town while others are running). Or he is staying in town and his 3 bots are running for him.: This is a screenshot of a solo t13 xp reward for a single bounty: (for 4man it's doubled - which is in line)

ok, this is a good info, thanks.

But how the **** did he manager to earn that amount of exp once in every 7-10-12 seconds, for minutes?

hm sounds hard to achieve but possible^^ if you got a really good group, it should be possible for 3 people to clear bounties that fast. but after 30 bounties i think they would have to create a new game to reset the bounties. or was that removed with the bounty rework in 2.5?

In a 4 man group the quickest t13 run I ever had was 5m45secs - that equals 25 bounties in 345seconds (= 13.8sceonds/bounty). That was the best run I've ever had (with a top group) in something among the lines of 10k runs. The best average session we ever had was 7m05sec per bounty run (25 bounties) over 4 hours.

You can assume 07m05secs to a be an average time for a very good group - it's impossible to make this time with a person idleing in town. If he really got that value every 7-12 seconds while leeching in town and if we believe that each of these bounty instances is a correct bounty hand in - than timetracking is incorrect. It's impossible.

[prrovoss]

oh right it should be a new game every 25 bounties
