Bravery Bonus

Bravery Bonus Overview
The bravery bonus only applies for the first completion of a quest. Running the quest additional times will not affect the bravery bonus nor give the bonus experience points. Thus, after the first run, you may run the quest on any difficulty and it will not affect your bravery streak.

Prerequisites
In order for the bravery bonus to apply, ALL of the following must be met:
 * It must be the first completion of the quest for that character.
 * You must run the quest on Hard (or higher) difficulty.
 * The highest character level in the party cannot be greater than 2 levels above the base level of the quest
 * Basically, everyone in the party must be equal to or lower than the effective level of the quest. (for example, the effective level of a level 10 quest on Elite is 12)

XP Calculation
The bravery bonus is actually comprised of two bonuses:
 * Bravery - This bonus is a flat +20%
 * Streak - This bonus is 5% on hard and 10% on elite.
 * This bonus stacks with itself up to 5 times, to a maximum of +25% for hard, and +50% for elite.

The bravery and streak bonuses stack with each other, but also stack with the standard "first time" bonus. Together, these bonuses can provide up to 85% on Hard and 150% on Elite when the maximum streak is obtained.

Hard (85%) = First time bonus (40%) + Bravery (20%) + Streak (25%) Elite (150%) = First time bonus (80%) + Bravery (20%) + Streak (50%)

When determining the streak bonus that will be applied (Hard or Elite), the higher of the two streak bonuses (Hard or Elite) takes precedence regardless of the difficulty of the quest.

For example:
 * you are running a lvl 10 quest on Elite
 * your character is lvl 12
 * this is your first time running the quest
 * your current Hard streak is 5 (25%)
 * your current Elite streak is 1 (10%)

Your final XP calculation will be: First time bonus on Elite (80%) + Bravery (20%) + Streak (25%)

Breaking Streaks
All streaks are broken when the following are true:
 * You are running a quest for the first time
 * The quest difficulty is Normal or lower
