Dex - Dexterity - relates to your ability to avoid getting hit in combat
and, for warriors, gives a slight boost to wounding
and, for warriors, gives a slight boost to wounding
By this, I'm pretty sure dexterity doesn't affect balance/equil recovery. Also means lightning stance is unrelated.
And I've heard many times that for wounding, what dexterity affects is the chance of a higher affliction hitting rather than increased wounding. This is only for warriors though - monks may be different.

Yes, but very little.
B ) You get a share of it depending on how much damage you've done.
No.
C ) You get a share of it if you just hit the target only once.
Yes, more than when doing nothing.
D ) You get a share of it if the one you're following is not part of your allied list and the leader allies you.
As far as I know, being allied does nothing to XP gain. It's following.
E ) You get a share of it if the one you're following is part of your allied list and the leader doesn't ally you.
As above.
F ) You get a share of it if the one you're following is part of your allied list and the leader allies you.
As above.
A group of bards makes them dangerous?
I have no idea about bards.
Dexerity affects:
A ) Faster Balance recovery?
No. That'd be just stupid.
B ) High wounding rate?
Yes. Very little for warriors. I have no idea for monks.
C ) Stacks with Lightning Stance?
See point A.
D ) Stacks with the dodge skill in Acrobatics?
I doubt it.
E ) Increases the chance to evade warrior jabs/swings, with or without combat stances?
It increases effectiveness of your combat stances. Chance to hit an unstanced bodypart is constant, dependant only on your knighthood skill and specialisation.
F ) Faster Equilibrium recovery?
See point A, only doubly so.

The experience gained from following someone is a function of your level compared to that of the other people in the group. If you are a higher level than most of the group, you will gain a larger percentage of the experience; if you are a lower level, you will gain very little. This effectively prevents leeching and power-leveling.

i've heard that, but it must not be that noticable. Or i bash way too much.
Shamarah2007-07-23 02:09:08
Well, you're a demigod, so you'd be getting the longer end of the stick in groups. You obviously won't notice it much if you bash with people near your level like Aesyra and Nejii, though.

i meant I haven't noticed that lower people get shafted so much. I take people all the time and see them gain quite fast. people under 80 too. though maybe that's not really that much of a difference.

They get less xp, but they need less xp to get to the next level.

What happens when you follow, and you make the kill?
Will the leader and all the people following him gain experience?

Everyone following the same person will get some experience, yes. If they're following someone else, then no. For example, say you are leading, and I follow you, Krellan follows you, and Sojiro follows Krellan (random names). If I get the kill, then Krellan, you, and I will gain experience. Sojiro isn't actually following you directly, so he won't get any.

also applies where if Sojiro gets the kill, then only he and I would get it. So in big groups I should let someone else lead and then I'll follow the person who bribes me the most for extra experience.

see if you came with us instead of helping that guild member of yours, you would've seen that I got at least half the kills. over 100 out of 200. and then Aesyra and Sarra got the other half, Kalodan have a couple so i don't really count him! plus he didn't grab his own corpses so I have no way of recalling how many he had after the total count.

Random sidenote! If you are graced or have Innocence, you get zero experience if you are in a GROUP with anyone else at all. I'm not sure how it effects the other people you are grouped with. So, if you are level 50 and graced, following someone who is level 50 and not graced, and they kill something, I'm not sure if they get 100% of the exp or 50%, but you definitely get 0%.
Lysandus2007-07-27 17:35:53
so meaning, people with grace will never get any experience if they follow someone?
