Experience worths nothing
JdlF
Hello dears,
While I was speaking with MaryamQ about stuffs and things, we kind of agreed on the fact experience (level) means nothing. Or at least worths nothing or similar.
Indeed after level 21 when you can retrieve 500 energy/day, it is not really worthy to level up. In fact it could even be penalizing.
Here is the table of levels from the eRepublik wiki: Here, click!
After the level 21, the only gain will be 1 gold per level. Quite nice of course but is it worthy?
Of course not. Fast experience will get you in higher division fastly and you won't be able to get BH.
One BH is 5 golds in div4; 4 in div3; 3 in div2 and 2 in div1. It means that even if you reach Jofroi's level you will get only 78 golds; so 16 BH. Now look at pen zi one r who is focusing on his strength.
Let's compare the earning through medals for both of them.
Jofroi got 45 hard workers, 45 congress members, 4 media moguls, 95 battle heros, 11 campaign hero, 6 resistance hero, 252 super soldiers, 2 society builder, 24 mercenary and 38 true patriots. He registered the 24/10/2009. Level 78.
pen zi one r got 14 hard worker, 1 congress, 179 battle heroes, 1 resistance hero, 141 super soldier, 1 mercenary, 14 true patriot. He registered the 15/08/2012. Level 28.
Therefore, through medals,
Jofroi earnt: around 2500 golds in 4 years.
pen zi one r earnt: around 1300 golds in 1 year.
We could narrow the analyze to more specified criteria like only super soldier, battle hero and levels. The conclusion would be even more suplificated but still.
Regarding those stats we can say that, regarding medals, pen zi one r earns golds at least 3 times faster than Jofroi thanks to his focus on strength; allowing him a really high level of super soldiers and easy battle heroe medals.
Experience, is it worthy? It seems not.

Very interesting, tnx!
You should also say that in the past there were a different battle system and everyone was in the same division.
Yeah I could 😛
But as it doesn't change conclusions it's dman too long/boring. This article was just here to put something factual. Even with the same division and so on, we can see that the guy going for full BH earns a lot more than the guy going for experience 😉.
Next one will be about influence. I think it's in favor of influence ; up to a point. But the "Stronger, less eperimented" will definitely undermine everything and show the tremendous advantage of strenghtenning at once (level 1).
That is true, before we had those 4 divisions you could not get a BH under level 21.
But my question is: are you playing for fun and glory or just for gold?
For me it is more fun to give all I have and still lose a medal against some high player than stealing medals from weaker players in my own level.
or with other words, I am maybe not the strongest but my muscles are real, not blown up by training alone
Like I said JdlF you ignored the fact that before it was very VERY hard to get a BH because there was no division at all.
So someone like jofroi who played on these hardcore condition couldn't have as much BH as someone who is fightning in div1 with bazookas.
Myself I noticed that new player could easily get BH in div1.
Once more this article isn't honest because you didn't even talk about this fact.
I remember fightning a lot when I started eRepublik and I was on the old system, having a BH against the best eRep hitter was a challenge (and most of my BH are done that way) but when the new system happened I saw new players in div1 making like 20 bh a day.
Once more I'll repeat myself but you didn't explain this fact to people. Someone like penzione was born during the new battle system and had a very big advantage over BH gain.
You can say the the result is the same but this isn't true.
You compared the gold gained through medals but once more you compared two person who had to fight over the old system.
What I want to say is that this article isn't objective.
While my comparaison is indeed not honest (and it was not intented to be), it gives a clear idea on the topic. You instead are implicitly saying that experience means something right now. It does not. I'm sorry but all accounts with lot of experience and few strength are not the well managed standard of today. It may have been in the past but right now it's over.
Moreover, i'm not speaking about the past. And yes, Jofroi with all his experience does less golds than pen zi one r this year. So yes, even with actual settings, citizens who are strengthenning will earn a lot more than others. You can also make the comapraison between two div 2 citizens and see that above average players earn a lot more.
Deal with that; you don't have to justify your strength/level ratio. We all know it was different before. As we know that nowadays we need strength over experience. Not acknowledging this fact is silly/stupid.
And a final note: I never said I was going to be exhaustive or that I'd explain everything. I just put facts with small examples. And love the way some oldies are like "but, but, you can do elsewhere" ... Yes you can. And you can be poor and needy.
Those days when BHs was for 1M. Now 1m is nothing.
You could also add the fact that SS was much harder than it currently is and that TP/Merc medals were not existing back then 😉.
And there we only Q1 training 😛
Oh yeah, and it took me like months before I could get my first BH 😛. (+ I didn't trained/played much during six months or so😁). But yeah, for a new player, you are totally right😁
Man, look at my stats 😛.
Society builder can give golds too, if persons are on the game and enjoy it : )
Indeed, I should ask beaver he really gets lot from it 🙂.
I didn't say it, but I'm not telling you can't enjoy the game if you are not a BH hunter. But my newspaper goal is to find ways of doing golds. Therefore I give tips and facts to get golds.
Look at me, I'm not even a BH hunter. But I acknowledge the fact that right now, BH-hunting is the main thing to get golds. And that experience is useless as you get nothing from it.
But anyway, for oldies who already are in d4 ... They should just play as they're used to, because they are already in the worst division for BH-ing and strengthenning would mean nothing of course.
But if you are a newcomer, then yes, go for strength if you want to have easy golds.
Beaver spent a lot of time to get those medals. (and I do mean it😁)
it's more easy for new comers, in division 4 it's more difficult. : )
It's more the debate : do new comers up their str before their lvl ?
But to stay in the game and make work and train, to have golds to up their training place... so long, and no fights before a long time. What it's interesting. Jofroi took a lot of time before to have his str, and all BH, he is patient.
It was another time 🙂
Back in those days it meant nothing "not fighting" as there was only one division and stuffs were differents (hospitals and so on).
But right now I'd say: go only for BH. Look, even with leveling up you can't upgrade your training centers. You need other things... And as it was stated by Kiyo, nowadays we can see d1 players making tons of BH easily. So I'd say: strength.
Of course it's quite puzzling to start a game ... Without really playing it.
But, it's only for gold consideration, i don't blame people going for the full experience 😁.
just that they don't hide to themselves the fact: they would earn a lot more golds if they didn't fight and get more strength.
pen zi one r earnt: 1783 golds
actually it's not correct
rewards for BH div1 2gold , BH div2 3gold
🙂
I admit that it's easier to take bh in D1 and D2
Shit 😛
I love making mistakes 😁.
Now i've to calculate again \o/
Weren't you MoF in the past? 😛
Interesting Gold Digger role play, but it's not valid... 😛 I agree with boer jan, Kiyo Dragnier & pen zi one r remarks 😛
Edited, doesn't really change things tbh 😁.
It's always nice to remind that.
Too late for this now, at least for me... 😛
But if you reach level 100, you get 10% damage bonus, you didn't took that into account, did you? 😁
Also for those who lived in the past they were forced to rush levels and military RANKS in order to get as much damage as possible since there were no division.
Never said it was not worthy before. Right now it's not worthy.
Yeah, i'm planning for level 200 😉
