So I just recently found out the crafting EXP you get is dependent on your character’s level. I was already at 120+ Cooking and seeing I get thousands of EXP per crafted food on my screen I only get roughly 100-300 EXP added to my bar.

I submitted a ticket to support and the only response I got was thank you for submitting a bug which will be reviewed etc. Did not explain anything, just gave a 6 worded thank you sentence and a paragraph of instructions about bug submission.

Is this really a bug? If it is intended can they at least change the EXP popping on everyone’s screen so it isn’t misleading? Or better, a big warning “You only get a % of EXP based on your level” in the crafting window?

The absolute amount of xp should differ. It’s based on a percentage of total xp for the level your character is, differing by what crafting level you’re at.

Yeah that’s what I’ve learned. My concern is the EXP I am seeing on my screen is more than what is added to my EXP bar. It’s a bit I don’t know, misleading?

If you are carefully tracking exactly how much xp you have before and after, I’d screenshot those stats in addition to the xp amount that pops up, because that would be a bug. Put that in the game bugs section of the forums.

The XP amount that pops up refers to the experience bar for your craft levels. It takes more XP to go from 120 to 121 cooking than it does to go from 1 to 2 cooking, and crafting higher-level foods gives more XP as well.

The XP you gain in your character level doesn’t pop up a number and also scales relative to your character level such that 400 crafting levels is 10 character levels (1-100 is 1, 100-200 is 2, 200-300 is 3, and 300-400 is worth 4 levels).
