NO EXP for confusion?

[Travis]

So playing through and messing with confusion it appears that if the confused enemy kills an enemy, no exp for you. Can anyone else confirm? Very upset that an entire tree, that is fun mind you, gives no reward, and since exp is hard enough to get in the game, I dont think any points should be put in this tree. Maybe I am missing something?

can confirm

[EricHVela]

Sometimes when nearby creatures kill each other by coded natural aggression between them without using confusion, Cal will gain XP for not doing anything... but when Cal directly "encourages" them to fight (even if they were already fighting), it seems that's not XP worthy.

Nearby NPCs and creatures dying because of coding errors leading them to their own deaths also sometimes contributes to XP even if they hadn't yet engaged in combat with Cal or anyone/thing else.

So, why not XP for Cal's direct involvement when he gets XP for just simply being nearby? I have no answer to that.

XP is plentiful in the game, it doesn't matter if you "lose out" on a bit through the use of Confusion.

Ty for the conformation EricHVela. Stanoje: you can grind all day if you like, but the confusion tree is expensive in points... so it does matter. Also I disagree about the xp being plentiful. However I am glad you are okay with not getting exp for the fight, others wont be so excepting. This topic is answered ^^ Ty

Weirdly antagonistic answer, but sure, you do you.

No reward? Isn't an easier fight a reward?
