Account xp question

In comparing my account level to another player on my shard, I just can't seem to keep up with him, despite the fact that our battle counts are very similar according to the in game interface. I started out ahead and he has passed me by 6 levels.

-Is there a way to gain large amounts of xp, other than battles and daily activities?
-Could there be some sort of data or display error where it records the number of battles each player has played?

I just don't want to allow a level disparity because of something I'm not doing

  • With the exception of the highest tiers (LS/DS9), your XP from battles is equal to the amount of energy you spend. Battle count has nothing to do with it. You and your shardmate could do the same number of battles, but if he has been doing higher energy battles he will get more XP. The way to level faster is to spend crystals on energy refreshes.
  • This ^^

    I also want to add I am not sure if cantina battles fall under normal battles or not. So he could be farming mods, or cantina toons and that energy spend would also get him more exp, without an large increase in battle count.
  • Yes I understand that, but at low levels there isn't a lot of variance in energy cost. Pre level 60, Normal battles are 6/8/10 and hard are 12/16 right? It's pretty easy to calculate max and min xp range with that.

    I'm not saying it isn't possible for someone to have gained 10,000+ more xp in the same number of battles, I'm simply asking if there is some source of better xp that I don't know about (e.g. is there a particular battle that rewards better xp)? Is there some sort of event?

    If he's just spending hundreds of dollars on energy refreshes and playing higher energy cost battles, then fine. I was just asking because I would want to take advatage of whatever options I have to maximize xp.

    Kyno, cantina is counted under normal battles based on the fact that I tracked one to make sure.

  • Thanks all for your replies. It looks like he probably is just spending crystals to play higher cost/xp battles.

  • No, there is no other way to get XP. Just daily activities and spending energy. That doesn't mean he is spending money though, he may just be spending the crystals he gets from arena/gw/dailies on energy refreshes.
