Mission Reward Xp needs to be quadrupled.

[Martin]

In fact I don't even know the word for x10 but it needs to be x10 what it is now..

I just got an escort mission, from a guy in a cave to his ship, it took us all the way around a mountain, directly it was 3km away, that's 3000 m away.. the trip itself was closer to 4km.

The Reward.. was 75 xp and 2500 credits.

There are critters wandering about, that if killed give 45xp in the time it took me to escort the survivor..

We should be getting like 350-450 xp for such missions. Basic missions and bounties give 100 xp plus all the kills you get worth around 20-25 each.. but an escort that takes longer to do get's 75 xp..the avg gun i get from a bounty mission sells for 6500 credits.. and i get 20 or so guns per mission.

Agreed, mission XP is far outclassed by just going to a random planet and committing genocide of the local fauna.

the xp is low as can be theres no loot or gear or anything worthwhile in the game . i keep trying to play but theres nothing to play for theres no reason to hack a lock

I don't agree with that, but i'm a natural explorer.. i always want to know what's around the next corner.. I am as happy grinding rocks as i am sleeping to let my lv 3 extractors fill my resource bins. But equally I don't like my time being wasted by insultingly low xp rewards.

Well maybe instead the xp rewards should scale. Because x10 when you first start and are level 1 would be massive.

You actually need about 1.7 times more XP than you're currently receiving. I know I've been playing with the numbers. You actually have a rewarding grind but still a grind.

The word you're looking for is "dectuple"

Also idk, I feel like I'm leveling up pretty fast just doddering around raiding random planets and doing the occasional main quest

There are also mods like https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/2399 if you feel like you need a boost

Getting 100 exp for completing a quest when I could kill a single lvl 50 animal for the exact same amount is poorly thought out.

Most quest encounters are leveled to your level which means it only gets harder as you level up. You've been warned.

What makes things easier is finding a "Superior" weapon or suit. At that point, the game becomes a LOT easier and enemies a lot less spongy.
