Oh, you want to spend an hour farming it with bomb lance or an axe? No, dude, it won't happen.
Earlier it was an op way to get xp.

So maybe make it like 20 xp? I get that since water devils infinitely respawn they can be grinded, but you'd think using all your shotgun shots in one general area would be deterant enough to avoid getting sniped.

They changed them to a 10 second respawn and made them much less vicious so the xp is lower. They said this change made them more in line with what they were intended... an annoyance that gets you killed by someone else, I guess.

If you were able to kill 3 waterdevils a minute for an entire hour, (which is ridiculous) you would get 360 xp. In comparison, you get 400 xp for killing the boss, and an additional 350 xp for banishment.
You also get 350 xp for killing a hunter with a slightly better ELO ranking than you.

I think it would be fair to bump up the xp reward for waterdevils. Its not a big deal though, who kills waterdevils during a match anyways? Unless your just screwing around ,how often do you feel that its easier to kill them rather than go around?

I think they should have gone the other way.
Keep them hard to kill but with lower damage.

It's not the same waterdevil anymore. So 2xp is normal.

no it was being abused you could almost get infinite amount of xp only limited by 1 hour timer... so basically it was 20xp before and respawned each 5 second to block you from going to water... and all you had to do was use throwing knives. 2 throwing knife took it out and u just go in water grab and do it again and again.

I think its fitting. They did make them easier in a way, but they still do way more damage than any person should enjoy on a single hit. On top of bleeding, while being slowed in the water. They're still nasty but more manageable.

Having 2xp perkill is a good way to keep peoples interactions with the waterdevil consitent. You avoid them, in game and in xp grinding. You just simply, avoid them. Nasty things.

Fair enough, I’m not saying they need to go back to that.
Why should throwing knives do that much damage? That doesn’t make sense, if they changed it so throwing knives didn’t do so much, and water devils had a 20-30 second respwan timer, or no respawn at all then it would be fine.

Ye that might work
