Experience Formula
Well, it does say the percentage of experience gained decreases on a scale with the difference between level and difficulty. They didn’t post the scale, but the example showed a 5.25 percent of total XP with a 25-level difference. I would imagine it went down quite a bit with a 78-level difference. So, the percentage is probably whatever 9,113 is of 254,000. Hope that helps. =)
Yeh I’m trying to work out exactly how it got to 9113. Getting the percentage is easy enough but I can’t work out how it got to that percentage.
Well, as it says, the percentage goes down the larger the difference between character level and area/mob/event level.
But it doesn’t give specifics. I want to see a formula that shows exactly how it got to 9113
This is the best I could find: It appears that when downleveled, xp is modified by a (E+C)/2C multiplier (where E is the event level and C is the current character level.
Remember, formulas are not revealed, usually, by ArenaNet, but discovered by players’ research. If you so desire, you can make a chart or graph from your own findings, and try to figure out the formula. Best of luck. =)
Ahh I was hoping that someone would already have found/worked out the formulas by now. Theres normally always enthusiasts who do that with big games like GW2. Thanks for the formula and the help
That formula is actually pretty kitten close. Using that gives me 51.25% for the example I used in my original post, which is almost spot on with the 51.254% I stated.

Not a problem. =)
In addition to Inculpatus’ calculations consideration must also be given for the level of xp reward which can be affected by how long a mob lives or your participation level in the event.
