50+ Experience.

This... but only up to where the bar is a 'buffer' of exp, to where it goes one exp short of level 51. It shouldn't go beyond that. It never does in MMOs. Or else what would be the point of raising the level cap, if all the people playing would just fly several levels from all the grinding they did? They need a 'gate' there somewhat to prevent this. Not receiving exp is that gate. If they didn't, then you'd just have people complaining about 'nothing to do' more than you see some do now, due to them not having to level when the cap is raised.

Actually it does in GW2. Every level you get past the cap accumulates skill points that you can spend on skills or for your legendary weapon.

LOTRO did the same thing. I like it.

But its not like you gain much EXP at 50 anyway. You don't get it from mobs, and you don't get it for completing dungeons.

or do you?

Yah. But thats at 'endgame endgame' life cycles for games. FFXI did it too. I'm talking about straight exp 'period', not points to put to bonus stats, that shouldn't be in the game yet due to the fact that we'll have our level caps raised.

In GW2 you did gain exp quickly even at cap. Running around WvW was easy levels and most of the time you didn't even notice you dinged. I personally liked that system because you were still progressing towards the end-game item or other things to spend skill points on.
