Bug:

XP exploration exploit.
Location:X:224 y:355 running towards X:233 Y:348

If you run backwards and forwards between these 2 points you can constantly get 550xp over and over.

But the question is... can you reach the level cap with it? x3

dont know what cap is set to, had gotten to lvl 27 before stopping, seems like the xp glitch only works with followers and works anytime to get an exploration xp bonus and the follower goes over it like you can walk back and forth in evelyn house and continue gaining xp, attributes maxed out at lvl 15 skills at lvl 5. again its only the followers giving the xp the 2 mains will not trigger after it has been obtained once, also if you get to the underground pirate cove and get beyond the skull blocking the path there is an exploration bonus that gives 17.5k each time if in not mistaken, or take off a zero but is the highest xp gain atm and is fairly easy to find the line that needs to be crossed to continue triggering. also it does work for each follower and in multiplayer so each person can continue running one and quicken the process

I believe the issue has to do with the fact that they changed something in the coding for the companions. In the previous build you were able to send them over the alpha line and explore a bit more of the game. However, with the newest update they too are sent back to Cyseal's start if they cross the alpha line. It would stand to reason that whatever they changed with the companions is what has triggered this problem.

I had one follower but my two main characters were also getting the xp over and over.It wasn't just the follower getting it in my case.

No the whole party gets the xp but I believe it's because the companions have been recoded to act more like player created characters to keep them from being sent over the alpha line like they could in previous build.

I already put a little video showing the process and bug, but, what the hell, why not put it here too.



So yeah indeed it's caused by companions and you can level up fast and high.
