I see a lot of complaints about "empty pq's" and "empty open rvr".  I hear a lot of people complaining that the game is a scenario mini game grind fest.  I guess I have to agree.  Basically I do pve quests and pq's while i wait for the scenario Q. I don't do this because the pve pq's and other quests are bad or boreing, I do it because the scenario xp is so damn good!!!
In tier 3 I can get 10k exp, or more if im on game, not to mention the r exp; in a scenario.  In open world quests I can't touch this. Most t3 quests are giving like 2-3k exp, or less. Same level mobs are giving me 200exp.  I'm doing the quests for the armor/weapons, not the exp.  This means there are no groups of people grinding mobs anywhere, so no opportunity to sit for a while and chat w/ people. I.E. no opportunity for "community". Ok, an overstatement.  PQ groups form, it's true, but, when the PQ is over, let's say 12min. they group splits, that's it.
All they need to do is nerf exp in one a bit, and upgade the exp in the other. Problem solved.

10k exp LOL
Last night i was killing mobs for 600exp per kill.. took me 5 minutes to get 15k exp..
Scenario EXP sucks compared to questing and killing. I got 12k exp just for flying to a warcamp and saying hi to a mob.
Sure when you win a scenario the exp is fine.. but given that you won't win everytime and you will win every quest.. it works out in favor of doing the quests.. although you still have to get the renown exp anyway..
My take on it is.. when you get tired of doing one thing.. do something else.. keeps me happy.

600exp per kill?! why am I only getting 200-300 then? 12k for a quest?! Ive never recieved more than 3.5k for one of those quests. Are we playing the same game?
I've been wrong bfore and have admitted it...so please elaborate.

Dunno what to tell you.. I'm t3 lvl 26 and that's what i'm getting on exp. last night 1 quest was kill 15 unicorns and a dryad.. uni's were giving 600exp dryad the same. that's close to 8k for the killing not including any adds that came along and 5k for the quest.. that's 13-14k for a 10 minute quest.

OH and just to add to that.. destro took over the rvr region i was near so i got 4400 rp while doing that quest :)

Hrm, I'm at work atm, so I can't look into it atm, but rest assured, I'll be on tonight to check it out. I'm lvl 23, so, it should be similar.........

i just dinged 25 and 26 yesterday. The quests i'm doing are against level 28-31 lvl mobs. I'm in Saphery at the moment and about 70% done with the quests there. I doubt i'll be able to go to caledor and continue the quests in DE because i won't be high enough level to do them. I'll probably have to jump to another continent and do some quests over there.

At level 23, chap 11 quests are giving me 2.3k exp per quest, or so. The mobs are giving me 300exp or so, unless I'm rested. Rested mobs are giving about 600exp per.
 

This means Scenarios give more exp per min, as I figure it anyway.  By how much? I'm averaging about 9k exp per scenario, maybe 10-12min.  Lets say I quest....Let's say the average time it takes me is the same. I keel 10 mobs at 300 a piece. That's 3k for mobs and 3k for quest...That's 6k.....

Not that big of a diff. I quess...Let's not forget Renound exp....Hey! I just tipped the scales, Thanks for playing.

Have you tried RvR quests?  Plus if your team sucks in a Scenario your xp isnt that great.

I do agree they should bump up the quest XP a tad.   I did a heck of a long quest solo in NE Badlands, and go I think 10k total XP for it.

That said, I'd sure rather grind XP via PvP than XP from farming mobs.    I guess I don't mind PvPing constantly in this game, as if you play even with just 2-3 other decent players you can really have a good time doing so.   Well 75% of the time at least.....there is that percentage where you get in with some terrible random players, but that's any game.

I'd rather then just jump up the XP a tad from PvE, than nerf the PvP XP.    Then people would have options to focus more on PvE if they wanted to.    Although this may be somewhat intentional - WAR is definitely a PvP focused game, even with the number of cool PvE aspects to it.  Anyway - I'm not one who sees the need to draw out the leveling process, nor do I find games impressive where it takes forever to reach max level.   The real fun always seems to begin at max level to me (aside from exploring/discovery aspect on the way), if the game is worth playing.

For everyone advocating the OP's suggestion, what makes  you think people won't quit in droves over this?

Hm......maybe because the game is still a blast to play?  At least for me, and my friends so far.

EDIT:  I didn't read every post here (not much but the OP and a couple after), but if you are referring to "everyone" don't include me.   My post discusses but does not agree with nerfing PvP exp, just raising PvE a tad, and explains why.
