Glad you told me that you did the edits that would have freaked me out at first wondering why /when/how I'd done that edit. And I'm Ally ~point at sig~ :D :P I'm not a doctor in real life I just play on on tv... erm, wait... what? ;)

Also use the tele shield on them before team raids so they get hit a bit less. With the right battle tactics and good enough weapons, Harry can get Alex keys on the lowest level of the battle raids a lot of the time and he has also killed gangsters, blood thieves and even a government agent once. & Never run out of zombie ears again, lol.

Inspires do NOT give extra energy or room to carry items (you know you can summon your own thralls, right?) but they do better at almost everything else when inspired. NOTE. Stick to T1 thralls, imo. I am not the only one that thinks t2 is either screwy or a waste, the t1 thrall, Morgan, did WAY better at everything than the t2 (Harry). :|

My tip: math is your friend.

Do math. Figure out what works best for you character at that characters' level and do that. Hunting with a 100% success rate in one area may still be inferior EXP gain to hunting with 50% success elsewhere.

Also, rest in the sewers/cats (vampire) or outside (human) at day change. Free EXP - why not?

And get your hands on an Ancient's Pendant + Deepsleeper's Acorn.

Yeah, I'm itching to get into the Castle with Pi.. but I'm not even sure she's up to 50% yet with the overlords. Sadness.

You're unlikely to get up to 50% with overlords at Pi's level.

Blake seems to be doing okay for level 39? Given what he's shown in chats, I'd say he's pretty close to 50%?

It's okay though. I'll keep getting curious about the Castle take Pi in, get her *** kicked, leave. Try again after another couple levels. Now that Pi is 50, maybe I'll try again. L48 was her last attempt.

Resting Bonus

This is still a thing and you get free exp gain just by planting your charrie in the sewers at night. Nothing like free exp.. worth it. :)

So, next question. In your experience, top ten powers to use to get experience v anima use?

I've always found Inspire to be awesome, to have done on Pi and to do on others for exp for Pi. Seems like that is the best, repeatable one.

Is there anything better?

I was under the impression that all non-battle powers give 20 experience per anima used, so they'd all be the same in terms of raw reward. The likes of inspiration, telekinetic shield and meaner things that give a bonus to energy regeneration or stats are going to continue improving your experience gain either through more energy to do whatever you do to level or better stats to be more successful at it.

Ahhh.. got et! >.> I was talking to Nix in chats (a couple weeks ago) and Enter Shadows according to the Wiki gives wicked exp. Is that really a thing or a mistake on the wiki?


Hrmmm never mind, did a bit of a test.

Testing Enter Shadows:

Current EXP: 43603
Percentage done: 38.2%
EXP until next level: 70637


You use the Enter Shadows power, and slip into the shadow realm.

Current EXP: 43663
Percentage done: 38.2%
EXP until next level: 70577


Even with T2, the exp gained drops to only 60exp when used ... what a stink.
