Experience rates

[Morphose]

By now I'm sure someone should have figured out how much experience you get for doing what. Am I correct? If someone has figured out the exact rate of experience given to each purchase/defense/attack/roids capped/ships killed .... Please let everybody know.

I do know myself that you get more experience, on the most part, for attacking than you do for defending. And beyond that, what amount of influence does planet values have on the experience gain, and so far, is there a cap that has been noticed?

You don't get experience for either defence or ship killing.

Capping roids is the only way to get experience out of combat, the bigger the value of the attacked planet is compared to your value, the more experience you get.

This has been discussed before.

Out of curiousity, is there a cap to the amount of Xp you can get for each attack? I know that in theory, if you attack someone 1/2 your value you would get 1/2 the XP, and if you attacked someone twice your value you would get x2 the amount of experience, but what if I am say, 500k value. I attack someone 3mil value and succesfully gain roids. Would I get 6x's the amount of XP or is there a cap or percentage maximum to the XP gain?

Yes, I read the thread posted, but was a cap ever confirmed?we could say that you can gain a maximum of 200% normal, but is it confirmed? Something for the math whiz's out there. And yes I know the round is almost over, but it was something I thought was interesting and that somebody might have figured out by now..

Also, yes I do believe you gain XP for defense, but it is not much.

1. I've attacked people above twice my size and got what I expected, so I can confirm it exists.

2. You don't get XP for defence. You can get salvaged resources however. And resources add value, which adds score.
