Maybe I am over analyzing this, but if I have 2980 of the 4000 XPs needed before advancing to the next level of composing, I should be nearly 75% completed,not 37%... What am I missing with this "new math"?

 

Thanks.

 

Well, interesting no comments to this post.  Currently I am at 3150 of 4000 XPs for level 4 of Composing, yet the advancement bar indicates I am only 51.4% completed.... Anyone else experiencing this problem?

tbh, I have no idea, not even what game this is, but given the 14% jump based upon the 170 xp gained (roughly .5% of the given total of 4000), the numbers looks to be cumulative.  What I'm saying is that given the percentage increase it doesn't look as though it started at one, but instead started at whatever number level 3 ends at, so you're 51.4% of the way between 3 and 4, with 3150 xp in the skill total.   I could work it out what 3 ended at but I'm terribly lazy.

The % complete is not on your total composing points - only on your points since the last level...

For example (using simple #s for easy math):

say level 1 is 0 - 999 points and level 2 is 1000 - 1999 points...

at 1000 points you will be @ level 2 and have 1/2 the points needed to reach 3 but will be at 0% progress to that level instead of 50%

 

Hopefully that clarifies it a bit
