Guardian's Aspect to Rested Experience: Will it be converted?

While rested experience is a fantastic idea, I'm in the unique position of rarely doing regional leves. When I log on, I grind local leves while looking for a group, then grind in parties for my Disciples of War and Magic. As a result, I have a surplus of Guardian's Aspect. My question is stated in the title: for people who rarely log on, or those who rarely do regional leves, will they see their Guardian's Aspect points converted into rested experience points when 1.21 comes around? Or should they just take the time to burn through their current GA as much as possible to gain the maximum benefits?

oooooooh i need to know so i can either smoke all my aspects or just wait and try it out at rest xp

Personally, I'd really like for them to change Guardian's Aspect into rested experience. That way it's a pretty much hassle-free transition from 1.20 to 1.21, I won't have to constantly run out and burn my GA on regionals and can just sit in town burning locals.

The gods! They will forsake us!

...I used all of my GAs the moment I heard about their eventual abolition. Kinda wish I'd waited, now.

The change isn't 'til the end of February. You still have all month to regen it back if you so choose.

I don't expect them to give you any rested exp based on your existing favor.

If you have enough horn & hands fraction points, you can do both.
If you make horn & hands leves with a crafter you get crafter exp and you can use Guardian's Aspect, too ^^
I got about 12k weaver exp with a lv 40 horn & hands leve and guardian's aspect.

I wonder how many people will be disappointed when they find out the logout bonus is in fact, not rested exp.

I love how people ignore the fact that this is nothing more then Fatigue 2.0.
In fact with one small tweek the first fatigue system was better.
If they just put a floor on the system where normal exp was it would have been
perfect. atleast in the old system all classes had an independent bonus and the system
was suppose to regen the bonus one class while you leveled others.

SO let me get this straight, fatigue now means a boost in exp, what we are going to get is a feature that when you log out in your inn room, you get a boost in exp.

This is also why GA should not translate, because you need to log out in your residence to get the boost.

And also why it's not rested exp, but logout bonus.

That's right everyone. A (damn near genre standard) system that gives you a boost to XP is the same as one that results in your gaining damn near zero XP.

How is normal exp + 20% exp the same as normal exp -20% exp?
Maybe you can't remember, but there was no bonus exp with fatique. It started with 100% normal exp and ended with near 0% exp if you played to long.
With the rested exp (or log out exp) you would never be going below 100%

It's nothing like fatigue because they're not reducing the overall exp gain in the game.(as far as we know)

Also, why do people think GA is being replaced by logout bonus? IDK if it's just me but I thought log out bonus was a separate change considering that leves are getting an exp change to compensate for the lose of GA. Maybe it's just me? I just thought log out bonus was going to be a bonus for the casual gamers.

keeping an open mind on this but if its turns out worse than it currently is at the moment it will be gamebreaker for me personally.
I just feeling leveling up should be fast and easy to do but the game strength should be from other areas , maybe it will be better or the same as is atm so thats why i say i keeping an open mind on this.

The way I see it is right now is GA is a straight 50% boost to leve exp. The boost is pretty significant when it's available. However, Guardian's Favor regenerates obnoxiously slowly. Not to mention, GA does absolutely nothing for local leves. Post 1.21 I believe they will adjust exp so that you won't see the large experience numbers you see now when you have GA up, but overall, the experience rate will be higher. Disciples of the Hand will be happier as well assuming local leve exp gets a boost as well. On top of that, you'll end up having that rested experience bonus as well.
