[Beta 18] No XP's for killing Bill
Posted: Thu Jan 06, 2011 1:25 am
Everybody's killed Bill a hundred times, and the boss XP payoff is a nice bump for low-level characters. I used to think so too, ntil the time I killed Bill and got nothing for it. Well, I can't swear that I got nothing, but considering I was third level before and after the feat, I'd say I didn't get the expected amount.
Below you can see a post-action screen shot; this was after I had killed a couple of smaller critters after Bill, but I was still stuck on third level.
The really weird part is that the log showed that I *was* awarded the extra XP, and made several levels as a result. Despite that, the UI continued to show my old level and XP, and I certainly did not get any talent points to develop as one one would have expected after jumping a few levels. Here's the output from that section:
