Remove the gen bonus cap.

Remove the cap so you get 30 xp bonus doesn't stop at gen 16. So a gen 30 player on an x1 would get 1870 per tick.

OOOOrrrr supremely advantageous loom stacking x5 and getting 9350xp per tick. NO.

Between the marketplace and the armory, pretty much everyone already has fully loomed gear. Plus after 16 gens, your gear is already fully loomed.

At gen 296381 you could reach lvl 31 in one single x1 tick, so ... why not ?

good idea 

[oprah_winfrey]

Didn't think about this at the time, but this would be a slight gold sink as well.

Everyone needs something to work towards.

Explain?

[oprah_winfrey]

Explain?

I guess I should have phrased that better. Per gen you will earn less gold.

[Ptolemy]

Yes, but you won't earn less gold in reality - gold should be worked out as gold per minute, rather than gold per generation, since as you get the gen bonus from 1-16 you gain less and less money per gen anyway. If you think about it like that, gen1 is your most profitable generation.

Yeah I realized that after I posted it. I generally look at gold/gen, even though it doesn't really mean much overall.

[Malaclypse]

Always thought putting a cap on Gen Bonus while simultaneously lowering the bonus itself was pretty extreme. One or the other should have been tested.

[Ptolemy]

YES!

Giev 11150 xp per x5 tick 

It's not far off on gen 16 in the under lvl 20 server... I remember getting over 10k exp on a x5 there.

[Penguin]

This is a horrible idea. 7250 at x5 is more than enough, when will you loom crutchers be content?

Removing the cap leads to situation spiralling out of control, with high gens retiring ever faster and faster.

[Vibe]

Maybe if it was the other way round, so newbies have it easier
