The clan rep is like anything else in the game, it's broken and confusing. I usually get a couple hundred from most of the things like minor AFs or conflict zones, but I've gotten as much as 100k from the longer and bigger events like sieges and major AFs.
Interesting......
I did test this out. Can't remember the exact numbers, but it was on the range of 2000-ish clan points added for a 200 ego toon, and like 200 points added for a 5k toon.
I did a minor scrapper arkfall with both toons. The high level toon smashed everything and got 1st place. The other one placed somewhere around 8th.
So it seems to be mostly related to toon ego level and xp gained. I got about 10 times more points using my new toon than the one that's been around since start.
IDK if it helps at all, but during the 12/21 Livestream Trick confirmed that the only thing that counts towards the Clan XP is the XP earned while inside the activity, not the completion XP. To be fair, he was specifically answering a question about PVP maps so I'm not sure if they are treated any differently than other activities.
I love the Clan XP system and I think it is one the best things to happen to the game but I think we also have to take into account the possibility that there may be bugs in how one or more of the activities are counted in this system. It would be a really good thing to bring up for the next Livestream because the last thing we need is another component that penalizes higher EGO players.
I like it too. The bonuses are sweet, as long as they continue past level 3. It's a grind, but we're gonna get there soon.
They are broken right now though. If you are gaining XP, your score is going to be higher than someone who isn't.
I thought the same thing myself. It seems that when a player get to 5000 he gets screwed. The way i think it should work is an option of how much xp you want to go to clan progression....ex.. 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. a new player just might want to contribute 25% of his xp, while a players who is maxed on xp can contribute 100%. I think that would be very fair.Quote:

This doesn't really help actually, because it's clearly either wrong or misunderstood (I mean, what Trick said, not the fact that he said it). Go get a gold medal in an arena. Check your clan xp right before you complete it, check it again right after: your clan gained 10k xp in challenges. Do the same for an emergency: your clan gains 2k xp in emergencies upon completion. Same thing for conflict sites. I've tested that several times with my 5k EGO character.Quote:

Higher activity levels require enormous amounts of xp, which would take ages if it counted only the pitiful amount of xp that you get from killing enemies. I believe that the fact that the final reward of some activities isn't counted is a bug, and needs to be fixed by Trion.
The minor arkfall points of 600+ points is false. The REAL reason it's so low is because the only points you get is from killing enemies. If you defeat the minor arkfall WITHOUT killing any enemies, then you will receive 0 points, tested this on all minor destruction crystals (hellbug destruction, raider destruction, dark matter obliteration, 99 pulveriser, mutant mayhem), scrapper destruction doesn't count as you have to kill the little scrappers in order to do actual damage to the crystal. But yes to everyone else, feel free to test this out too and you will probably receive 0 points, this means minor arkfalls reward 0 points, only extremely little amount of points for killing individual enemies which you get anyway from killing enemies outside of arkfalls too. I have submitted a ticket about this so hopefully it will be fixed.
Right now these are kind of broken 10% is as high as the rewards go right now they are actually suppose to go past ten maybe even 15% in the activities but they just stay on 10%
Does anyone feel like bringing up some kind of a topic for minor arkfalls not awarding contribution points? I'm surprised it's not bugging many people, because it's bugging my entire clan and myself. We're arkhunters, aren't we supposed to be awarding points for hunting arkfalls?
I'm noticing majors to give very random amounts, between 3k and 10k, regardless of what position you come in on the scoreboard.
Minor arkfall on the other hand awards 0 points. That's right, nothing! The only points you get are for killing enemies, which are like 1-20 points per kill depending on what you've killed. So most wave survival arkfalls giving you only around 200 points.
Last time I checked, even the little skitterlings emergency on the road gives 2000+ contribution points.
So. Someone mind explaining this nonsense as to why minor arkfalls hasn't been buffed in points and why no one is complaining or noticing this?
