Talk:Upgrade/@comment-11249456-20150516194730

tldr; I went back and tested, and the EXP table for levels 1-60 are most likely wrong, and the slime EXP value listed for level 30 is currently off by 10.

Kushieda Minori (who appears to be the page maintainer) keeps rolling back my edits indicating that the Wikia should only use tested values, so I've gone back and tested rather than blindly applying math to the values listed on the page. After doing so, I can safely conclude that the current EXP value for slime (the most used upgrade item) when combined with the current EXP table does not yield the expected result.

I had a level 31 SR card with 327 till next level. According to the current EXP table, I essentially have 9880 exp. To confirm the current Wikia value, I used 1 level 30 slime with Arcana Blessing. The expected result from the current tested value for how much EXP a slime gives is that I'd wind up at 9880 + (11952 * 2) = 33784 exp (level 48 with 1543 till next level). What actually happened is I wound up at level 48 with 1619 till next level. Since its prediction is off by 76, something in the Wikia is wrong.

If I take the formula from http://tcgapp.com/threads/level-and-exp-formulas.2724/ (which I just found linked in one of the comments and matches the formulas that I had reverse-engineered from the data points), the predicted value from the formula of 100 + 125% card exp is that I'd wind up at level 48 with 1609 till next level. This is still off by 10.

However, if I conclude that the EXP table on this Upgrade page is wrong, then according to the EXP table on the other page, I actually have 9905 exp. If I wind up at with 1619 till next level, that means that after using the level 30 slime with Arcana Blessing, I wound up at 33790 exp. If I use that EXP table to predict how much EXP each slime will give me, it predicts 11942.5 EXP which (if rounded down) is 10 points lower than the current WIkia states. If I do not floor the result until after the Arcana Blessing bonus is applied, then the end result of using a level 30 slime is 9905 + (11942.5 * 2) = 33790, which is exactly correct.

I don't really feel like editing the whole EXP table to be correct so someone else can do that if they feel inclined to do so. However, I'm pretty confident that if I apply the formulas to the other EXP table, I'll wind up at correct EXP values, and so I'll edit those in. With that being said, I'll leave the formulas off since Kushieda Minori thinks they add clutter without adding value unless someone else decides they're worthwhile to add.
