HQ levequest reduced to 100%

Traded in 3 HQ items in a repeatable leve and it awarded me 100% bonus. :(

The amount of exp for the quest is the same as it was before patch.

Level 35
Gridania - Flintstone Flight (19600 XP)
Requires: 3 Walnut Macuahuitl

You mean 100% bonus? So if the NQ gives 10k, HQ gives 20k instead of 30k it was before patch? Nerf was expected, but I can deal with this I guess :)

That's a pretty crazy change... and it separates those that got 50 before the rest of us... even further...

Yep, I was only able to test the one leve before I was kicked.

Sooooooooooooo glad I grinded all my crafts to 50 before this patch!

That sucks for when I level other stuff, but it looks like I'll be making quit a bit more off of my Apple Juices and La Noscean Toasts.

It does bring turning in HQ items in line with turning in partial HQ sets. For those that don't know if you turn in 1 HQ of 3 items it's a 33% bonus, and 66% if you turn in two.

Turning in HQ items for guild-seals is a 50% bonus (even when turning in multiple like for gathering items)

so glad i got my leatherworker to 50 right before patch hit! ...I spent the entire day crafting to go 30-50 in a day. Just alchemy and blacksmith left(maybe armor for the echeivment? meh)

So now it's pretty much how I thought it was to begin with, the first time I saw it say "200%" when turning in HQ items. As in, you get 200% exp instead of normal, not 200% more exp on top of the regular 100%.

Still makes leveling professions crazy easy, it'll just take a few more leves to do so.

LOL that's SE adjustments. Not a few percents because they felt it was slightly too much, no ONE HUNDRED haha. I should have levelled my fisher more quickly it seems.....

I was pretty ridiculous at how much xp you got from HQ turn ins, 100% instead of the 200% extra for HQ is acceptable and understandable amount.

I was able to level a crafting class 25 levels in an hour and a half just from burning through my leve allowance by buying HQs from the AH and turning them in.

Still good xp from the turn in and they didn't nerf the gil bonus which still won't be helpful with the housing prices...

Is that EXP and Gil, or just EXP? Was hoping the Gil bonus would remain the same, since the note only said EXP was reduced.

I don't recall what the original amount of gil was but it awarded me 1400ish for 1 turn-in of HQ items.

Ah not as bad I thought it would be then, I'll still get the other 5 crafts to 50 in under a month lol.

Exactly, just thought I'd pass the info on for those that can't play atm. Though I can't either anymore. /sigh

Suppose we level everything with HQ turn ins. This makes leveling crafting classes take about 30% longer.

It's quite a significant nerf. I wonder if they ever said anything about these turn-ins being overpowered.

Forget the exp.
more important, is the gil bonus still +200% or also +100%?
