One of my favorite things used to be watching my terrible character develop into a bad one. Of course I'm terrible at the game so I still did bad but there was something about watching my character grow that I really liked.
Also the loom point reward for retiring at 37 is pure nonsense. Here's some math.
110,000,000 xp gives 5 lps.
24,000,000 xp gives 3 lps.
8,000,000 xp gives one lps.
Time for some more math. If you got 1 lp for every 8mil xp, you would get:
24,000,000/8,000,000 = 3, which is the same as the current reward. Pretty reasonable.
110,000,000/8,000,000 = 13.75, or ~ 14.
This is the tough part.
14 - 5 = ???
Thanks to my calculator I can solve this. It's 9.
So, we get 9 less lp's than we should under a "reasonable" system. IT ALL ADDS UP. Or doesn't. In any case, current system is kind of broken.
