My friend seems to earn Reputation much faster than me.

  • Just what the title says.
    I'm an older account, been playing since near the start of the game. My friend joined around the time of the Hungering Deep event, and he seems to earn Rep about 1.5x-2x faster than I do.
    After the Hungering Deep event, I noticed that I seemed to get Rep a little faster than before but it doesn't even compare to how fast he does.
    He got to Rep 50 in OOS before me even though I've been playing for longer, and he continues to level up faster than me.
    Any reason for this? Has anyone else noticed it?

  • If he's doing grade 5 emissaries more than you, he'll be getting 2.5x the rep you do if you are just doing regular voyaging with no emissary bonus.

  • @d3adst1ck I suppose that would make sense, his Emissary grade is higher than mine by about 100k.

  • @d3adst1ck But actually, now that I think about it, we've been emissaries at the same times, so he's earning that faster too.

  • Are you only playing while in the same crew? Or maybe your friend is making some progress on his own while you're not playing?

  • I started playing again with a friend recently.

    He had never played before and I was in my mid/late 30s with the three companies. Since we started we have only played together and he is now 1-4 levels behind me.

    There is something quite weird going on how some earn much more rep by doing the exact same thing.

    Lower levels go faster than higher ones.

    Also, when you were level 10 you probably did level 10 quests, when he was level 10, he was doing your level 30 ones.

  • @robombrobot cheater detected!!!

    ....its just a joke

  • @lukadra No, we pretty much only ever play together.

  • Honestly, I’m just better than you.
