Talk:Experience

Alternate Uses
Can't "XP" also translate as ":P" with a laugh at the same time? While rarely used in RS, I've come across it several times here, and it's more common amongst games that don't feature the alternate meaning of Experience Points. Is it worth including?


 * If it's rarely used in RS, and this wiki is about RS, it seems a bit too obscure to include. If anyone does see XP written in public chat or on a talk page here on the wiki, they will probably get that it's an emoticon from the context.  So I guess I would say no it's not really worth including.  Leevclarke, AKA Max Bulldog [[Image:Bulldogh.gif]] 00:42, 17 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I may change my mind about this. Maybe we should list all reasonable interpretations, and leave the user to pick the most appropriate from the context of where they see it.  Usually there will be no ambiguity.  Leevclarke, AKA Max Bulldog [[Image:Bulldogh.gif]] 18:38, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Exp calculation?
The experience scale is is a linear decay. The equation is something like this;
 * Y=0.90572581463947592807398535639101X-.000001

When this equation is graphed onto a chart, it shows the decreasing experience needed to be a level. On a graph of 10x10 blocks, it starts at (9,9) and goes to (0,0). (9,9) represent level 99 and (0,0) represents level 1.

Just some extra information.

is the formula for Runescape's Xp(the formula in equation form where L is the level you're calculating for) --Alex 14:26, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

XP Table Error
Shouldn't level 1 be 0 xp? You start out with no experience at level 1...

Also, there is an error in the table. Level 16 shows less xp than 15!

When I put the xp formula into excel, I got the following info, which is slightly off from the table in the article.
