121,953,000 xp for 1st time (4% trinket @ level 167) --Arkalor 12:19, 18 May 2012 (EST)

Exp Rewards

The rewards are currently listed as:

• First Time: 96,549,429 (??% up to level ??)
• Repeat: 32,483,143 (10% up to level 150)

The number 96,549,429 came from ASHERON-Atarax at 13:16, January 23, 2009‎, which stated: You've earned 96,549,429 experience. (lvl 245)

96,549,429 is not any whole percentage reward at level 150:

• 29% @ 150 = 94,201,115
• 30% @ 150 = 97,449,429

96,549,429 might have been earned with an exp trinket. If so:

• -2% = 94,656,302.94117647
• -4% = 92,835,989.42307692
• -6% = 91,084,366.98113208

However, none of those numbers are close to a whole percentage reward at level 150 either:

• 27% @ 150 = 87,704,486
  • +6% = 92,966,755.16
• 28% @ 150 = 90,952,801
  • +6% = 96,409,969.06
• 29% @ 150 = 94,201,115
  • +2% = 96,085,137.3
  • +4% = 99,928,542.792
• 30% @ 150 = 97,449,429

Since the repeat reward from this quest is 10% @ 150, and the rewards from the prereq quest are 20%, 5%, and 2% @ 150, it seems odd that that first time reward would not be capped at 150.

Arkalor's message from May 2012 states the reward is 121,953,000 xp for 1st time (4% trinket @ level 167). This would equal 117,262,500 exp without the trinket.

117,262,500 is not a whole percentage at level 167 (the level stated that this reward was earned at):

• 23% @ 167 = 113,140,743 (+4% = 117,666,372.72)
• 24% @ 167 = 118,059,905 (+4% = 122,782,301.2)
• 25% @ 167 = 122,979,068 (+4% = 127,898,230.72)

117,262,500 is not a whole percentage at level 150 (the level cap of the old rewards):

• 36% @ 150 = 116,939,315 (+4% = 121,616,887.6)
• 37% @ 150 = 120,187,630 (+4% = 124,995,135.2)

117,262,500 is not a whole percentage at level 120 (the quest level restriction):

• 85% @ 120 = 117,148,062 (+4% = 121,833,984.48)
• 86% @ 120 = 118,526,275 (+4% = 123,267,326)

Additionally, the Learning From Experience/Quest XP Updates states the old reward was 32,483,143, and the new reward is 117,000,000. That addition was made by Vitae Boy at 18:59, 15 March 2011 on acpedia. http://acpedia.org/index.php?title=Learning_From_Experience/Quest_XP_Updates&oldid=305766

Addition info, the reward was cpap'd:

NPC	Message
Ennio di Cinghalle	Have you found anything useful?
N/A	You give Ennio di Cinghalle Observations: Harraag.
Ennio di Cinghalle	Ahh, the translation. Thank you for this. I will forward this on to my superiors, and those to whom I am aiding in this investigation. Here, take a copy of this for yourself, and also, the reward I've promised you.
N/A	You've earned 124,019,993 experience.

124,019,993 is 117,000,000 + 6% trinket.

• 124,019,993 / 1.06 = 116,999,993.3962264
• 117,000,000 * 1.06 = 124,020,000

The earlier reward of 121,953,000 xp for 1st time (4% trinket @ level 167) does not fit this:

• 121,953,000 / 1.04 = 117,262,500
• 117,000,000 * 1.04 = 121,680,000
