Do you want experience from combat?
You do realize that your example will be blown to pieces with metagaming as it was with bg. Maybe the metagaming won't affect the quest xp system, but it will still affect everything else. People who min/max attributes and skills will still do it to get the optimal solution and best rewards. The sad thing is that you keep dodging the important questions, why should we care that a hand full of people chooses to play the game that way? Now your are just talking out of your ass.

The things you say are the same exploits that will be made with the quest xp system. They may not be the same type of exploits, but so what, they will still be exploits. It's foolish to think that PoE will be less exploitable in 15 years no matter what system they implement. Even if it wasn't, the people who did those things (used exploits) did them because it was fun for them. I didn't game the system, whats the point. Not once in any of my playthrough of the BG series did I use any exploits. Again so what, who cares and why should time be wasted on such a thing as an unexplotable system. People who care about diversity will use it, people who don't will min/max and find optimal builds, as was already seen in the bb. edit: I mean you do realize that you are calling people incompetent of having fun in the game they are playing. You are advocating for policing how people should play the game, which is the pinnacle of stupidity, because that can only make the game less fun for the people who don't want to play it that way. You are removing all other routes and leaving only yours because you deem it as the only fun one.

Ah the infamous double dip. When was that a big problem in the BG series? How much more xp could you even get for it anyways? Maybe a few people did it and you are saying that because of them we should now waste time on a new xp system?

I can't wait when the game comes out and in the second week guides start coming out with how to exploit the system for max xp. I can't wait to see what you will say then. You are holding up the quest xp system as a beacon of unexploitability, when in fact such a system doesn't exit. The better question is, why should time be wasted on creating such a system in a singleplayer game?

Also once you see gromnir talk more and more like normal person it means he is on the ropes. Quite funny when you see it actually.

Pretty disappointed, this launches in December?
They are a time saver as far as I remember, I think one of the devs said they had no time for paperdolls.

That is what we combat xp proponents are asking for, even though it looks like it's a battle between the two.

Why reinvent the wheel on half the things in PoE... Only they know.

It really does, it has much more character then the PoE one, which just looks plain.

I am pondering if I should wait for the first patch to come out before I give it a go. First impressions and all that.

The health-stamina system always seemed needless to me since they first mentioned it and what I'm hearing from beta has only made my opinion of it worse.
