I just got back from taking over a year off, with this new exp system do 34/34 pulses still pulse out more exp than at 1/34?

It seems to.

But if you can get your mind state to 4/34 for instance and keep it there, it will pulse as well as 34/34, though the latter might pulse longer after you stop the experience-gaining activity.

No. You pulse slightly less than you used to at mindlock, but you pulse the same at all levels.

Pools are also about 3x bigger IIRC.

To clarify... all pulses are the same regardless of mind state (For a single skill set and rank) except when your mind state is too low to make up a full pulse and goes to clear after the pulse. This usually only happens if you're 1/34 or sometimes 2/34.

The wording seemed to indicate that pulsing from 34/34 was less than pulsing from 33/34 and on down to 4/34. I don't know if that is the case or not, I have been too lazy to check, and maybe don't even want to know if it does, really. Anyway, I will probably check after posting this now if someone does not refute it right away.

That's the way the old experience system worked. 34 to 33 is the same as 5 to 4. The only time you might not get full experience is if you are at 1 and pulse since you might not have enough "bits" to get a full pulse.

Yup it appears 34/34 to 33/34 is the same as 33/34 on down to 2/34. And I now know my pulse size difference btw primary and secondary woot. I am pretty sure 2/34-1/34 is less gain than 4/34-3/34, though. not sure about 3- but I think it is full pulse.

Uh, no. Once again... if you pulse to clear, you probably didn't pulse at the max rate. If you have any exp in your pool immediately after a pulse, you got a full pulse. Even if you only have 2/34 in the pool.

Probably. I haven't had the need nor desire to study it closely. Someone said learning when it was released, but maybe that just means that is the safe threshold to assume full pulse (not to 0). Now that I thnk about it I am pretty sure I understood that at one time. hmm

There is no "probably" about it. That is how it is.
