Dolmen XP dropoff?

BmcD73

I am playing on XB1 and my first 50+ toon. I have been grinding Dolmens the last couple of days with the double xp. I was getting somewhere like 48-50k xp per Dolmen completed for the last couple of days. Now I am getting around 12k. Obviously I am getting more champion points but that shouldn't affect how much XP you get should it? I just passed 80 CP.

Did your enlightenment run out? You get 400k worth of enlightenment xp (4 times xp) replenished each day, but it will run out. This is the most likely explanation as that is very likely to happen at around the 80cp mark.

I turned 50 and started grinding CP right away. Do you get full enlightenment right when u hit 50? If so that would explain it. If not, there shouldn't be any enlightenment. I never checked because I assumed you start at 0 enlightenment once you hit 50.

Enlightenment triggers once a day. I want to say it's 8pm Pacific, but I haven't checked recently. If you hit 50 right before that, it may have seemed like you had immediate enlightenment.

Well I got at least 80 CP in a day which would far exceed any enlightenment I would have had. Each Dolmen giving me about 50k xp. I have the double xp going so that would normally be 25k...which is what I had always seen on the PC (where I mainly play). I didn't know if this was an XB1 thing or some measure they put in to prevent people from grinding a ton (like I have been doing).

well it must be enlightenment because tonight when I logged in, I was enlightened and was getting 50k xp with the cake. Then I started getting 12k xp with cake. Turned off cake and was getting 6k.

1) I must have started off with a butt-ton of enlightenment as soon as I hit 50 because I literally ground out 80 CP doing dolmens @ 50k a pop in a day and a half.

2) I thought enlightenment gave you 50% more xp which is why I was confused by the math.

They also ninja nerfed the dolmens mobs OP.

Because of all the afk farmers, if you didn't tag the enemies and damage them the mobs will NOT have given any exp to you. Just the actual closing the final pinion after the boss fight would award the 12k you are referring to.

Also once you reach level 50 and unlock champion ranks you gain an immediate 4,7mil enlightenment right off the bat ( This would have given you the feeling of flying through the levels). As said above you also receive 400k enlightenment everyday afterwards.

If you don't log in for a maximum of 12 days your enlightenment will have accumulated to 4,7mil total ( which is the maximum enlightenment build up which you must expend before more can build up again ).

I think after this event doing regular zones or even other dolmens ( less people ) will once again be a more optimal way of obtaining experience OP.
