I had 22.5k xp for the second line, 80k xp for the third (with an enfo)

Strangely I capped on 77 sk on my MP for the third.

L3 - 80000 XP Cap

It might depends on prof then. I capped at 18sk for the second on my NT.

[Alienchild]

thanks for the info so far. This post will be a bit of a mess, but I will do a cleanup over the weekend.

keep the info comin!

It might rather be faction related.

Considering what Sil said :

Resolved Issues

Visual display of XP total when 200+ and earning research

Feedback gives total spent on research as an xp total instead of sk as all research is expressed as the base xp value

If the 'XP/SK' value from a mob is first calculated in XP form, then amount of XP going for research is calculated, and only then faction is factored to translate XP into SK, the displayed value for research would depend on faction. The higher the faction, the higher the displayed value for research, even if same 'xp/sk' is actually used.

I think it much more likely than being prof related.

On my NT (don't bother about my sig, she's 96 now) I could only access the first three levels of my research skills, so they appear to be level capped. Pretty sure level 4 is unlocked at level 100.

[Camar]

seems faction seems to be important too.
Capping on 226 sk for 4, 614sk for 5.

I took what I've figured out so far and shoved it into a handy spreadsheet. So far I only have information for L200+ players, and that will probably stay that way as I don't activly play any characters under L200.

Also, I've only had time to complete two levels of research so I'm sure the LE points to SK ratio will be more accurate in the future.

LE Personal Research Points/SK Spreadsheet (Published Google Spreadsheet)

[Glarawyn]

Hm, looking at the numbers...

1 Point of Personal Research = 1 Point of XP. That makes life easy for you folks under L200.

Glarawyn has nearly 50,000 faction (49,9XX), so the SK to XP exchange rate seems slightly better than 1 SK = 1000 XP. It seems closer to 1 SK = 1038 XP, FunCom likes weird math I think.

[DragonShade]

The numbers are in SK.

#    Cap      Level      Total
10   45,000   900,000     1,809,550

Big jump between 8 and 9 oO

[Alienchild]

Updated with correct SK values. I'll work on finding all the XP values using my doc later this week, as well as registering all the different perks on the different professions and adding them to the chart.

Who managed to hit cap on lvl 9???
Seems bugged to me...i ran a 220 hard mish, and i pulled slider to 100% personal at the end...result was only a few Ks (like 3k i think) to personal....wth

why didnt i get 37k? (the mish reward was big enough...100k+)
Is it a bug?

the damn slider didnt even move

[Alienchild]

I hit the lvl 9 cap today on a 220 inf hard mish

dont know if youre including this into your info post, but level 58 you can only train 2 points into every research line. i have a feeling it might be every ~30 or so levels you get to train an extra research point into every line. not sure how it is after 200 tho.
