XP Disparity

from Stardock Forums

Has anyone noticed a massive seperation in the XP awarded from CREEP armies and AI Armies.  I find the armies of the other nations harder to kill then most of the CREEP armies yet I get 5x to 8x the XP from the CREEP armies.  Massive Disparity!!!!!

 

I get 1 to 3 XP a unit fighting the other nations armies.  I'll get anywhere from 35 to 150xp when killing CREEP armies.

 

A massive difference!!!!

yes, it has been discussed before many times and it is by design. The reasoning behind it is that once you defeat the creep, it is gone. But the armies of other factions will "spawn" over and over again, because they are trained. You would basically get a constant flow of massive XP reward for your champions if other factions provided the same XP.

Sorry if it has been discussed a to death, new to the boards and didnt do a search,

 

Do you know if they are looking into increasing it somewhat.  Seems way off.  I get the constant spaming of trained units but id have to kill over 20+ units to get the same XP i do for some of the CREEP.

Oh my gosh, that is the reason?! That is crazy. They have champions on such a tight leash it is ridiculous. Beating the AI wins the game! Why should getting XP rewards be such an issue if you are crushing the AI's armies?
