Fast xp?
-
Hey guys, is there a game mode that nets you more/faster xp? I see so many people complaining about the 15k daily max, but I find that just playing ranked/events/br/conquest I struggle to get the 15k each day
-
Play vs cpu on rookie with a created stadium. I can accumulate 1000 XP per inning when I’m hitting nothing but bombs lol

Not this year. XP was nerfed hard and those days are over for now.
-
All of the “other” programs and both Mini Seasons have XP rewards.
-
@BJDUBBYAH
Yeah I’ve completed every single program currently out, and just finishing up the last of the new storylines now. My understanding is the xp in those isn’t part of the daily cap anyway, right? I was just curious if there was a mode that gave more or not. Sounds like grinding vs cpu on rookie is the answer I guess
-
Well Mini Seasons have rewards ONLY for the 1st time completed --- they fixed / nerfed it a week or ago or something.
I realize it needed it but if you have already done mini seasons and the C-Maps then the only thing you have offline is just grinding til 15k XP cap. I still think they could have still put some XP even if 50 to 75% nerfed on like mini seasons , USA Map or someplace. If they were afraid of people who all they do play and get way ahead then put a lock out timer for XP on Mini and USA conquest like it resets on a certain day like MMO's do like WoW.
Example Mini Seasons Classic and USA Map -- Championship reward if I recall was 7k XP now in my proposed system once you do it the XP rewards are gone til let's say Sunday 3 AM PST ( reset time example ) then instead of 7k it's like 3k. -- I might also add a small XP reward for making playoffs like 500 XP -
USA Map --- Once completed has a similar lockout as Mini seasons but for rewards -- 250 XP plus 1 pack ( the one's from TA with 2 B and 2 S ) for defeating all the teams in a division -- and conquering ALL the Map still the 20 Bundle and the 3k stubs plus 2k XP.
These are not hard idea's and it seems like reasonable solutions that would not compromise the game's precious XP path but still give grinders something to do even if maybe kind of boring but at least it is SOMETHING to do that can earn XP outside of just playing the game.
-- One more thing -- I know some are using mini seasons for pack farming and hopefully SDS does not nerf that soon but that could still be done the lockout is for XP only not pack rewards just to be clear
-
@blitz77tw I actually didn’t realize that mini seasons awarded 25k xp and packs until reading your post, I just thought it was TA stuff which has long been completed, so thank you!
Do you know if that xp counts towards the daily 15k cap or if it’s considered a program reward on top of it?
-
XP from the rewards DO NOT count -- this is why is was nerfed / fixed like I mentioned in that post cause some were farming it NON STOP -- that is why we cannot have nice things -- LOL
-
@blitz77tw they don’t even count the first time you do it? That’s lame
-
@xxfrystealerxx Yes the first time counts. But it used to be "Repeatable" so you could keep playing it over and over to get that 25k XP. They eliminated the repeatable part so you no longer gain that XP again after your first time.
-
@H-TOWN713-X1HQX serious question. Who do you play against and in what stadium? This worked for me last year, playing at ‘the sandlot’ crushing the A’s. But this year, while ive had a few big games, ive had a lot where i don’t reach 10 runs, and then i just feel embarrassed that I didn’t crush the cpu. Some games are just riddled with fly outs, diving catches, line outs directly to 1st/3rd basemen.
-
@GixxerRyder750 ok thanks, I get that haha but yeah I haven’t done any so sweet I’ll work on that until the new drops on Friday. Thanks guys!

This is why there is a cap on XP.
-
I wouldn't recommend playing against the cpu on rookie with created stadiums and playing against 1 overall rated teams.
This will mess up your timing when u start playing online. -
xp is meant to be something that is passive, not something that you grind for.
Want something to grind for? TA mini seasons for repeated packs. Or classic if you want to use all players, but TA is better. As you grind for these packs youll be earning pxp towards parallels, getting more packs (stubs), and passively getting xp
Or if you like playing online, hop into your favorite online mode for practice against other players, work to get better. Try out new cards. Tired of Buxton? Try Arenado team. Try your favorite team's theme team. Have fun playing baseball.

Good suggestions, trying for a compromise
To be honest I think that SDS did not expect people to be so upset about this. This doesn't seem meant to be a 'nerf' or anti-player, but it ends up feeling that way to some people. I get why they did it, but its not what I would have done.
I expect they will make changes in season 2, but will still see how their plan for season 1 plays out
My personal suggestion is to revert xp to function in prior years, but make the 95/97/99 rewards vouchers.
Exchange for 95s opens with TA 2 launch. 97 halfway through TA2. 99 at start of TA 3.They can then control the powercreep without trying to overengineer the xp

@blitz77tw Ive been pack farming that mini season for packs almost everyday for little bit.

This and the starter showdown. I do the starter showdown first thing everytime I log in each day. Sometimes the last thing too.

@JDHalfrack What do you get for doing the Starter Showdown?
