Changes
Changes have been implemented in the Soul War hunting grounds in order to address XP and loot being too high as well as taints not being too impactful. The changes work as follows:
XP and loot of all normal monsters in the Soul War hunting grounds will be lowered by ~12%.
Those who are willing to take on a challenge will be able to increase their gains from normal monsters there through Goshnar's tribute:
Each taint grants an experience boost of 4.5%. Additional taints raise the experience points these 4.5% will yield due to compound interest. Moreover, each taint will also give you a 4.5% chance for a second loot roll. For a party, the member with the lowest number of taints within shared experience range will be the reference for Goshnar's tribute and determines the boost for the whole party:
- Example 1) A has 1, B has 2, C has 1, D has 1 = Goshnar's tribute for the party is 1 which yields 4.5% XP bonus and a 4.5% chance for an additional loot roll
- Example 2) A has 1, B has 2, C has 1, D has 1, E has 0 = Goshnar's tribute for the party is 0 which means no XP and loot bonus through taints
The higher the number of taints, the higher the risk, and the higher the bonus you can get.
