I don’t know if if anyone mentioned this since I didn’t bother looking, but I had the extra Xp while guild wars was down,  
So I want to say thanks to the devs for that little bonus while guild wars was away and I look forward to it returning.  
Another big thanks for bringing it back so quickly. I’m looking forward to the new improvements and hope that there are many more along the way.

Keep it up guys! Thanks!

I get about a level a day or so, so it’s very helpful. I think it was intended. These little gifts are much appreciated by me.

Lol they didn’t do it on purpose. When they halted guild wars, they also halted the little part that expires the xp bonus.

I didn’t get it, so it wasn’t universal. I’ve been slaving away with just my armor, VIP, and guild bonuses to experience points! 😓

Are you sure you didn’t? Ok so maybe it was just us on console. So my xp says 475, but I’m also VIP 6, but we did also win our last war.  
So that is what trying to see if it is all of us or just a few.

The highest XP I have gotten so far was last night after the good homie @Vangor led me to another team that whoops much stuff.

Anyway after one battle it hit 200 or so. Give or take a little.

So does the XP given depend somewhat on the caliber team that’s being used.

You know like teams with awesome Synergy. It seems like these type of teams get bigger bonuses.

It’s a farce imo, upgrading your player level with artificial boosts at lower levels doesn’t do a lower experienced player any favours.

They are unlocking slots for teams and getting more mana, I think the xp helps. The cards you play is up to the user.  
And at my level just getting glory and I key is nice, so getting them faster is very nice,  
Hard to complain about free stuff.

Xp is pretty flat regardless of what team you use or are fighting and whether it’s in PvP, explore, casual, etc. The bonuses come from various things like armor & VIP levels among other things.

If the team you’re fighting summons other troop or resurrect you get additional xp for those killed as well. So fighting a dragon team where dragon soul resurrects 3 times you get xp for killing 7 troops, multiplied by whatever bonuses you have.

Strength of either team, levels of troops & traits don’t affect xp gained.

Alright this makes sense to me. Especially since in one battle I murked that guy 4 times before he didn’t try and come back. And I got hella XP after that match.

Yeah, I didn’t get the xp bonus on console. My pc account got it.  
Yeah, not everyone received this bonus. 🙃
