Team xp bonus for ninjas changed

udon · 10-15-2009, 09:14 AM

Just a quick update to notify of the new way team xp is handled. Previously, you got bonus exp to your ninjas depending on the difference between your team xp and the opponent's team xp. This made a lot of players lose on purpose when they reached really high team xp (6000+).

To prevent this, you now gain bonus ninja xp depending on the amount of the team with the lowest team xp of the two battling teams. The ninjas that participate (either win or lose) a duel in the game receive +1 bonus ninja exp (excluding the exp they get from defeating ninjas) per 1000 team xp. So if two teams with 5000 team xp fight then the ninjas that fight will receive +5 bonus ninja exp. The losing team will get 50% of this bonus for their ninjas.

This was implemented about a week ago and seem to work rather well, so we'll stick with it. Later on, summons will also be taken into consideration when calculation this bonus ninja exp.

Also, the "hidden bonus" ninja exp you received for NOT switching lineups for a few games has been removed. In the end, it just created restrictions with not wanting to change lineups/test new things etc, and not very many knew of this anyway. The future implemention of bonus exp from summons will more than make up for the "loss" of exp because of this removal.

Next big feature will be a Clans System! Maybe there'll even be a beta up and running late this month?

Not sure if its working completely properly, i just played a game of 3000 team xp vs 3000 team xp, ninjas that participated but didnt win a fight, only got 1xp bonus :S

Losing incurs a 50% penalty to the bonus, rounded down.

He probably just didn't note that in the update.

Hmm gotcha, didnt even see they actaul update post, just this one. My bad.
Still tho, 1.5 rounding down to 1 is annoying :) round it up

Lunar2 · 10-15-2009, 01:43 PM

It's still a massive boost from the old system, which gave no bonus whatsoever if you lost.

Sounds good, anything that make my lvling life easier is a welcome change! Looking at your other post the clan system looks promising, and beta soon sounds great.
