	For example (v6.4 and earlier), 100 points of experience may be reduced by 10% when granted to a group. Leadership would have reduced the reduction by some percentage, up to 90%. This would have returned some of the lost Experience back to the group. In the example the reduction of 10 points would have been reduced to 1 point if the group's leader had 90 trains in Leadership; granting 99 Experience Points. For v7.0, the same Experience amount would have been calculated to be 118. This is the original 100 Experience Points, no penalty, and increased by 18% (at 90 trains).

	~~'''TO BE UPDATED'''The maximum experience per~~ kill ~~from~~ a ~~monster that is blue~~, ~~yellow~~, ~~or orange con can be~~ calculated ~~using~~ the following ~~formula.~~		Base XP for a Mob kill is a combination of three factors: the player getting the experience, the level difference between the player getting the experience and the mob, and an XP Modification Rate on the mob. This calculation is performed for each group member in Experience Range at the time of the mob kill. After this amount is calculated, the following bonuses are applied:
	~~<code>~~(((~~Level^2~~-~~Level~~)50)~~+16)</code>~~		*(Bonus) Hotzone - The mob's location at the time of death (not spawn) is used to determine if this bonus is applied
			*(Penalty) Errant - Experience Points granted to an Errant player are reduced
			*(Bonus) Realm - Realms under the control of Feudal R8s receive a bonus to PvE Experience Points
			*(Bonus) Experience Charms - Zones that have triggered Experience bonuses to PvE, specifically Noob Island

Players who apply the [[Commander]] discipline will receive a new skill called Leadership. For Leadership work, the character employing it must be set as the group's leader and be within experience-gaining range of group members. Starting with patch 7.0, Leadership grants a top-level bonus to the Experience Points granted (18% at 90 trains). Previously, Leadership was a reduction in the size of the penalty applied to Experience Points granted when leveling as a group.

			For example (v6.4 and earlier), 100 points of experience may be reduced by 10% when granted to a group. Leadership would have reduced the reduction by some percentage, up to 90%. This would have returned some of the lost Experience back to the group. In the example the reduction of 10 points would have been reduced to 1 point if the group's leader had 90 trains in Leadership; granting 99 Experience Points.

	~~As a character gains levels, it will receive less experience from the mobs it kills.
