Rested Bonus EXP question.

[Arkista]

Does anyone know how much you get per say hour of rest and what the cap is? I know the bonus can last for many levels near 50.

[Arkista]

No one knows?

I'm not too sure, but I think that 24 hours of being in a sanctuary translates to 1 level's worth of rested xp. I don't know if there's a cap on rested, but if there is, it's ridiculously high.

It has to be an absurd amount because I have had enough rest to get me through 40-50 on one character, 1-15 on two, and up to 25 on another. I was only gone for roughly a month though I did stay in a town while I was away from the game.

Looking more for an amount VS 1 levels worth of EXP but thanks.

I know you get 50% bonus but wanting to know how much EXP you get from the bonus... Like 1hr of rested EXP is 5k bonus EXP something like that.

Because we can freely switch classes, rested xp is gained by a percentage of the xp bar, rather than a fixed amount. As such, it'll be more effective on a high-level class than a low-level class.

Exactly what gamesmart said. Easy way to verify is to use rested exp on a level 40+ class vs. level 1 class. You'll use up all your rested exp in no time on the level 1.

As for the cap, I don't think anyone knows for certain, or if they do, google isn't saying. Is there even a reliable way to measure that?

[MurakumoMillennium]

It's hard to measure because so many things aren't effected by rested exp. FATES, quests, leve turn-ins, etc. Basically it's for exp from killing mobs only.

As such, you could have just over 1 levels worth of rested exp and still go from 40-50 without seeing the bar drop, because you might not actually be using it.

I recall an official source saying the cap is one week of resting. Iirc it was one of the beta manuals, so that could easily have changed since then.

This is what I found from Phase 2 Beta.


Upon entering a "sanctuary," such as an inn room or aetheryte camp, this icon will appear to the right of your experience bar, indicating that you are currently accruing a rested bonus.
Experience Bar Color Yellow: Normal Blue: Rested bonus accrued Red: Rested bonus accrued beyond current level

No values but I'll keep looking.
