Boosted rested XP

I’m leaving town for two weks, and I don’t want to fall too behind on levels (I’m already behind as is). Do players get a boosted exp bonus when they’re offline for more than x amount of time? Like if I come back will I have 500% exp bonus? Or is there a potion or something I could buy that increase my exp?

Thanks

Bonus Xp has a cap (i think its around a level and a half, but I’m not entirely sure) so if you’ll be gone for two weeks, you’ll have at least that much saved up. If you can, log in a week after you leave and use that xp, so you can boost more the remaining week.

I know that, I’m not stupid lol. I’m saying is there a way to increase it through the store.

…you sure?

2 weeks is about the cap for rested xp. Make sure you log out in an inn. Also, it will always be just 200% experience to killing monsters. You wont get bonus quest exp.

Other than that, no way to increase it.

Well, the max level is 70 and it’s going to be the max for a couple years, at least. You have time.

Log off until WotLK comes out. Then you can get heirlooms…

This guy is nothing but a troll in every post he makes and yes, he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Hey man, if your name is taken choose a different name. Don’t just add a letter to it — it’s tacky.

My bad, wish I had the genius to name my char after a game. Pot calling kettle black there bud with probably the dumbest name I have seen in wow, Toni.

Would the coolest name be yours, but with only one n?

The Rested XP system is designed to reward you for returning to the game after you have been away for a while. It is a bar that adds to your Experience bar while you are offline, and it increases the XP you gain from killing mobs until the bar is depleted. The Rested XP bar grows up to 150% of your level

Rested XP is gained at a rate of 5% per 8 hours when you are in a Capital City or Inn. If you are outside one of these locations, it is gained at a rate of 1.25% per 8 hours.

You can tell that you are Resting if your Character Portrait (in the default UI) has a special ‘zzz’ speech bubble on it.

This means that it takes 10 days of resting in a Capital City or Inn to get a full Rested XP bar, or 40 days outside of one. A “bar” or “bubble” of Rested XP is based on your current level. In other words, the 150% of Rested XP that you get will always be equivalent of 150% of the XP needed to surpass your current level in full.

TLDR Version: Log out at an Inn or in a city (Shat) and 10 days into your 14 days away you will have a filled rested XP bar to enjoy and get increased XP from killing monsters until it is used up

Even your tldr is too long.

Rested caps out in 10d, 30 bars, or 1.5x. It’s 200% from kills. No other way to get more XP and there never should be. This isn’t retail. I would hope heirlooms don’t make a come back when we get to LK… but they probably will.

Why wouldn’t they? Do you want changes or something to the game?

Heirlooms helped to ruin the low levels and made leveling stupidly fast as if it wasn’t fast enough at that point. As for me wanting changes, yes, but only reasonable ones such as this.

I’m playing for the expansion not for the base game. I hope that they add level 70 boosts when it comes out, and I know they will

They will probably just raise the current boost to 68 at that point so you can go right to northrend.

Good. Even better that I know it makes you mad.
