[GRIND] 700-750k exp/h - Cracked Wood Cave with math

Sacadon

@QuadroTony, I hate being wrong probably more than most, but thought I'd chime in and say I'm surprised they've not nerfed XP in these delves yet. I still don't think it's cool to risk nerfs by posting it for all to flock to, but maybe rather than naivety on your part it was brass (sincere compliment). After all, why would they have raised XP in the delves if they didn't want players to flock to them. Maybe this was your logic after all. Anyway...

I was wrong on this one .

so your congradulations was too late

The logic still stands, whether it was a month ago or yesterday. That is kind of irrelevant. The point was you shouldn't post grey area topics that you utilize for gain, or other people have used previously on the forums. ZOS probably new about this, but didn't want to spend the resources on it. Now that its on the forums for more people to see, and more to complain about it, they may decide to reduce the xp gain there. Its standard procedure for large MMO companies.

*** it.

Eventually it's gonna be, hey I get 10 xp off this mob at this place, awesome. ZOS nerf it.

What, I can only get 1xp a day.



Stop nerfing spots if you don't release content we can to to get xp.

Drunk type ftw.

QuadroTony

You say "Fixed" like its broken?

Is the point to your original post sour grapes?
Did you not find out about the high level exp gain untill after a lot of other people did? or were you there prior to it being common knowledge and now find competition for the exp and thus think "if i cant have it, lets make sure noone else can either"

Its not broken because, in thoery, the player base has a counter, namly they can come and kill you.

The reality of the server populations and who has control of the map makes this slightly different, but the risk/reward is there and therefore seems fine to me.

QuadroTony

my bad english, i mean not NERFED, like other pve spts for example

The funniest part about the whole thing is how many people on the previous thread pages screamed the sky is falling and nothing ever happened.

What about Haynote Cave?

You literally can't move without having an angry undead skeleton, necromancer or cultist in your face.

Every foot you move, there is an enemy there, filled with experience points seemingly ready to esplode in a glorious esplosion of experience points.

Also, the two bosses in this Cyrodiil delve? They both spawn, simultaneously.

Now, remember; it's common for Cyrodiil delves to have multiple bosses, in some cases four bosses, only one can be alive at one time, killing one forces a RNG spawn timer of ten minutes.

Haynote Cave though? 100% more efficient than any other Cyrodiil delve with regards to acquiring grand soul gems. If you factor in distance travelled and other variables, it's definitely going to be a one-thousand-million-percent increase in grand soul gem acquisition efficiency.

Keep up the good work, QuadroTony. I look forward to seeing posts regarding Haynote Cave, and maybe perhaps even Aspect Rune Cave, otherwise known as Capstone Cave located near Bruma.

Capstone Cave; where the treasure chests overflow with Martial Knowledge gear, always an aspect rune spawning whilst experience points just keep on givin'.

Actually 2 bosses can be up in most places that have more bosses. It is only 1 if there are only 3-4 bosses I think. A lot of the cyrodil places have 2. I plowed them months ago with a friend on voice chat for shards and achievements.

It's most likely the more emotional side of those who are offended. It won't be nerfed as players from other factions keep farmers in check. More now than before, thanks to your initial post. I imagine you pissed off a good many people with this post. =P

Natjur

They will fix it once a few more players have got 3600 cp points.
Most just use it to get to about 900 before the boredom gets to them

Is it me or someone in need of more gank just bumped this topic?

When you zone to that cave and there are 9 players guarding the door (3 of each faction, so 6 can attack who ever zones in and kill them before they finishing zoning) You know it must be something good in there.

But if the cave is not fill and you ask nicely (while your a corpse at the door) they might rez you and let you camp an unused part of the cave. Or just rez you so they others can kill you again.

perhaps it doesnt.. perhaps it does..

Teiji

Okay so my previous venture for an alternative grind spot had gone out the window but then I had a thought; "What if I leave Cyrodiil?"

But why?

Isn't it obvious? The Cyrodiil delves being "good" experience points is a ruse. There are better places out there, hiding, but hiding from whom? From us? From Zenimax?

Perhaps.

But there art thou that cannot be hid from'eth.

Grynda.

With intense research and magicka I discovered a 3978 + 3536 + 5746 per minute pull. This is solo with no experience point bonus. I never count "enlightened" experience points because that's nonsense to me and not always-on.

How much is this per hour? Seven-hundred and ninty-five thousand, six-hundred big ones, that's right - 795,600. If you group up, add 10% - 875,160 if you're a subscriber and grouped up, add 20% instead - 954,720. Give or take 80k experience if you have lag respectively.

You curious yet?

I will update this thread soon, then I shall create a thread, with screenshots and even a brief paragraph detailing how to most efficiently do the pulls so that our fellow inexperienced grinders can get a leg-up on their peers.

P.S Newt Cave Trolls is 250-260k exp p/hour, good alternative when others like Cracked Wood Cave get crowded. You do the corridor trolls, then the two small troll rooms and back to the corridor, pulling the bat and troll into the corridor but not so they rubber band back.

Swarm one grind, two more take its place - hail Gryndra!

anyway, what this thing did with you?

hamgatan

That question has been answered above

QuadroTony

no i cant see the answer
its like invise? ot dodge?

hamgatan

I dont need to say anymore, ive said too much already - i'll just leave this here

QuadroTony

and? you will see hp bar anyway and alliance icon

hamgatan

They're pretty insignificant from a distance

QuadroTony

agreed
but addons like FTC fixing it - you will see big frame of target's hp when your reticle will be over target

hamgatan

You have to know the target is even there first - Thats the issue..

One 17k shooting star, a crit rush, executioner, engulfing flames and two WB's later I had two dead AD DK's at my feet

Its very hard to see an alliance marker or health bar going off with all those animations and flashes happening around you..even in FTC
