January 29, 201214 yr The xp difference between 96 and 97 is 1,008,052. I still have 903,267 xp remaining to level 97. I'm still ~400k off of half way..so what the hell is this thing showing me? I have also been watching my range one jump around, and take huge jumps, then back off... WHAT IT DO?[spoiler=Hmmm...]I suppose this could go in Help and Advice board instead? It could be a discussion... I dunno...
January 29, 201214 yr I'm gonna move this to H&A since it seems more appropriate there :) I noticed the same thing with mine, too. Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!
January 29, 201214 yr Author They glitch sometimes. I'm not a java, coding, or math expert, but doesn't that seem like kind of a simple thing to accomplish? :wall:
January 29, 201214 yr I dunno, sometimes it looks like they display the progress to your goal, and sometimes the progess to level.
January 29, 201214 yr Their algorithm is messed up, it seems to find a different starting point of "xp" when you take too long of a break. It also seems to update rather slowly and in jumps, meaning it isn't very useful for gauging xp-over-time either. It might just round up by quarters, although I highly doubt it. The fact that you can't tell what it is just shows how useless it is. Just ignore it.
January 29, 201214 yr This has always happened with every skill I leveled up in. It's a bug/error on Jagex's behalf.
January 29, 201214 yr Author I think logging out and logging back in helps it sometimes.Mine has been like this for a few days now...Slayer has at least. ranged seemed pretty accurate until it started taking huge jumps all over. *edit* It just went back to the depressing sliver of xp in the corner it should be, lol. This has always happened with every skill I leveled up in. It's a bug/error on Jagex's behalf.What? I'm so shocked *Etrades shocked baby face*
January 29, 201214 yr It is a very glitchy feature. Just do like me and turn it off (Can be done by right clicking the XP-button interface). Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak
January 29, 201214 yr Lol. I have noticed sometimes my XP meter starts at 0 and moves its way up to whatever point I am at. Other times it just adds to where it already is. I personally find it really cool and I won't be turning it off - but I wish it worked properly. One thing I do dislike about them though is the ingame skill guides are now a 'fullscreen event' meaning you can't see what's happening to your character while you're looking at it like the world map.

They leave you this tiny little box in the top right to frantically click out of.

January 29, 201214 yr Nearly all the time, I gain a level and it says I'm halfway to the next one. But once I actually get to halfway it updates normally. 99 cooking: 10/24/10
January 29, 201214 yr I noticed this, I also noticed if you get a tonne of xp then little to nothing after a while it goes down. So my guess is it's a TTL bar kinda thing. Because I used 3 effigys on mining and it went to half way. 180th to 99 Divination + 1st W36er Rambo, cannot pk call your friends bro :). Wait nevermind none of SAPK/PKS can. Kappa.
January 29, 201214 yr The xp meter has told me I was THAT CLOSE to a level and I was 200k xp off or more -.-.
