    My highest character at the time was i128, the calculation I made was:
    6 left side, i130 = 780
    5 right side, i130 = 650
    2 weapon, i135 = 270
    1700 / 13 = 130.769...

    After rounding, 131, was i130 max result?

    I would rather do HLR than run "The Vault" one more time. Even if it ends up being 50% the xp, I didn't even mind 2.0 dungeons, actually liked them, but these HW dungeons are a draggggg

    Getting 50% of a heavensward dungeon's exp in HLR is pretty much a best case scenario. Before I stopped doing HLR altogether, I'd had dungeons give as little as 120k upon completion which is less than most trial roulette's, and considering the high number of new players in HLR, you can't go in expecting a speedrun to make up for the low exp.

    Id just be happy if the HLR dungeons just gave experience from killing the monsters...

    I really miss the high level dungeons, and I agree with Bman10119 in that it would be wonderful if they gave even a little bit of experience.

    I have an alt character that I leveled to 50 right before HW, but now I can't do the HM roulette because no one is going through those dungeons so the queues are horrendous. It feels like such a waste having so much content rotting when there was a really cool variety of great dungeons that people frequented.

    Ah I see. Well, since the game rounds ilvl down rather than up, yes, the max result was i130.

    High-lvl XP reward is scaled down because you can burn through the lvl50 dungeons so quickly compared to everything else in the game. It's worth running through if you can get a competent premade put together.

    Wouldn't you say it's a serious problem with the roulette if you need a fast pre-made party for it to be even remotely worth doing? And even with a premade, most of the dungeons give somewhere in the region of 130k (I did WP and Snowcloak and they gave 120k and 140k respectively), if a fast pre-made can blitz through it in say 10-15 mins, they can more than likely blitz through a heavensward dungeon in under 30 and gain more than three times the xp, plus loot.
