What effects optional xp?[edit]

Ok so I was trying to calculate the optional XP and verify it against this page, and the compedium page they just uploaded: http://compendium.ddo.com/wiki/Quest:The_Lord_of_Eyes

None of it easily matches up.. As im not sure what factors apply to optional XP.

I know that optionals decay like regular quest XP, so they should be 100%/100%/90% or so for run 1/2/3 - if you do that optional each run.. That shouldn't apply to my breakdown since this was my 2nd run - and I did all the optionals on the first run too. So here's a SS with a couple of the optionals: Screenshot

So 6454 base Occular: 967 Uthraat: 806 (not in the SS, but pretty sure opulox was 806 as well)

A simple division for ccular hounds gives: 0.149.. or about 15% But thats not right as im sure the +25% XP weekend applies at least, if not other factors.. So: 967 * .75 = 725.25 = 11.2%.. Closer, but the compedium says 12%..

Shouldn't be any other factors I don't think.. As my character was not wearing a voice/mantle, nor had any xp pots going. Tho if you do have the voice on, I think it actauly applies to optionals in the breakdown, while XP pots only show in the combat log.

Any ideas whats going on? --Shade 00:47, July 3, 2011 (EDT)

mmm yea 12% seems right if i do it this way: 12% *1.25 = 15% (what i got about) --Shade 00:55, July 3, 2011 (EDT)


For one thing, the First Time Bonus's, aren't factored into the optionals. (sever-wide bonus's are however) With Uthraat: 10% of 6454, is obviously 645.4. 25% of that, is 161.35, for a total of 806.75.
For the Hounds, the compendium says 12%, so lets do the math (god, im starting to sound like one of those "why New Weapon XXX < ESOS, here's the math!" thread posters) 6454*0.12 = 774.48 * 0.25 = 193.81 + 774.48 = 968.1 (you got shorted 1 xp by Tubine not rounding!
