how wg calculates the exp earned from battles?

[HMS_Edinburgh_C16]

how can this be possible? 1st battle results compared to 2nd battle? why did i get more exp in the 2nd battle, even if the dmg wasn't that good as the first? wtf is going on in this game?

Show us the detailed stats with what you damaged. XP is % based, so doing a % of a ships HP is worth more than raw damage. Meaning you will get the same XP from dealing 50% damage to a cruiser or 50% to a BB.

 

That is my main guess here. Also did you swap out any economic flags or the like?

First battle: 1530 baseXP

2nd batte: 864 BaseXP

Everything after that is affected by YOU! signals, Camo, daily win bonus, (well in this case not as its both defeats, but otherwise possible) and premium acc.

You have MUCH less base XP in the second battle.

The explanation for a higher total XP in your second battle can be found in your XP modifiers.

Look at your results screen and you see what you used.

in the first battle i used a This is your day Commander! camo and in the 2nd battle a frosty fir camo, didn't swap out any of the signals, just the camo

but as was said already: your first battle gave much more baseXP, so everything fine...

Maybe Premium account ran out

Maybe one of your signals ran out

And first Camo gives +250% Commander/FreeXP, while Frosty Fir gives XP/CommanderXP/FreeXP. so naturally, you get more normal XP when using the latter.

Unless you look at the detailed results screen, you will never know exactly why the numbers are different.

so let me understand, it doesn't matter if u do 1 dmg but u have mounted a good camo compared to a monster dmg game without a exp camo. the [edited]is this thinking

No, not exactly. The more base XP you get (the 2nd and 4th screenshot you posted), the more you gain from camos/signals as they are percentage based.

F.e. if you get 100 base XP, and you have a camo with 100% Bonus, you get 200 XP. But if you get 1000 BaseXP, the same camo bumps it up to 2000 XP.

 

 

Thats what happens if you get high BaseXP and stack all signals + super camo + Premium acc + 200% daily win bonus in Narai. And thats still not the maximum.

Xp is based on % of damage, 

 

50% of dd (say 10k damage) is worth the same as 50% of BB damage (even if that’s 40k)

 

so in the second game you may have done more EFFECTIVE damage, and less on big targets.

Dont confuse him more, he had 100k more damage and almost double the baseXP, which is worth much more than stacking signals/camos.

Isn't XP also based on the tier of the ship you damage, so that damaging higher Tier ships gives more XP? Empirically that feels right...

that was my understanding too. so if your bottom tier (which sucks) the better you do against the higher tier is magnified

Ye blowing up a full hp T10 DD in a T8 guarantees top 3 in the teamlist.

Which I suspect is why he’s confused he got LESS xp than the battle he did 100k LESS damage in.

No.

The better the game, the more XP you get.

If you get nothing, then the modifiers give you nothing.
