Different XP readings for Stonegear's Search: 460 and 474
· updated · ForeverDB
ForeverDB recorded 460 and 474 XP for quest 467. The difference does not establish a change to its base reward; player level and modifiers were not controlled.
Correction, 14 November 2026. These readings do not establish a change to the quest's base experience reward. The original comparison did not control for character level or XP modifiers. We have withdrawn the hotfix claim.
ForeverDB uploads recorded 460 and 474 experience for Stonegear's Search. The original report counted five players across five uploads on 11 November 2026.
What the readings establish
The two amounts differ by roughly 3%. That is consistent with an XP modifier and rounding, but does not identify a modifier or prove that one was active. More players reporting one amount confirms that reading, not why another player saw a different amount.
Character level can affect quest XP. The captures also distinguish what the quest window displayed from what the player received, but the original article did not establish comparable conditions for the values it described.
The client's Well Fed XP Boost says it increases experience from kills by 5%. That particular food buff does not explain a quest-reward difference.
For quest details, see Stonegear's Search. The readings seen in game remain observations; a base-reward change needs separate evidence.
