Experience Calculator

I don't garauntee it to be correct, but of course I'm not coming right out and saying it'll always be wrong, either. As you'll see from my comment at the top, I don't claim full credit.

Code: [Select]
<?PHP

Looks like a good tool. I'm getting this error though:
Code: [Select]
Fatal error: Call to undefined function calculateGrayLevel() in /home/joe/public_html/xp.php on line 49

How about you do a number of characters and number of monsters thing, which could be set all at different levels. If you do that a friend of mine could make an add-on, I think

It would be a trivial task (in php, lua (wow addon), javascript, whatever).  I'm pretty sure all of the equations are on wowwiki.

At level 1 you will receive 120 experience from fighting a 60 mob (elite: on).

How do you figure that?

At level 1 you will receive 120 experience from fighting a 70 mob (elite: on).

Yeah. You don't get any more benefit from killing a 70 elite than you would a level 6 elite, if you're level 1. Blizzard got tired of you damn power-levelers and reflected it in their algorithm (read the code).

I assure you they actually did that. If you can find a way to aggro a level 60 mob at level 1, tap it, and then have a buddy kill it (without you dying in the process), I assure you that it will give you 120 experience.

Run with a priest and get shielded when they come near you so there might be a chance he catches the aggo.

Requires level 45.

Any level 60 elite could bash through Power Word: Shield rank 1 easily. Each rank has a minimum target level.

Roll a mage. Get a warlock to summon you to like the tainted scar or something. Run close to a 60 elite mob and then hit it with your rank 1 bullshit that you get. As he runs towards you have a warrior Charge the dude and there you go you taped him =].

A level 1 mage would aggro the entire tainted scar from Nethergarde Keep, lol.

By the way, you totally fux0vered your quote. I fixed it for you.
