What is the point of “prof hunting” if you’re just using shittier gear to gain 1% EE every so often? The math isn’t mathing bro.
1-10 max prof point gain per wave.
1 hit killing = either 0 prof or 1 prof gain
Melee weapons have a 20% chance to gain a Prof point (single attack/action) = 1 out of 5 actions per wave. Note: this is Bigheadeads results from testing.
... conclusion when Solo'ing, 1 hit killing a 3 spawn wave = either 0 or up to maximum of 3 prof points.
1000 prof points from Rank 0 to gain 1% Enhanced Effect, so how many monsters do you need to kill to gain this? 5,000? You do the calculations.
2000 prof points from Rank 1 to Rank 2 to gain 1% Enhanced Effect, so is that 10,000 monster kills?
Etc, however, you can use a Well and ensure you gain maximum of 10 prof points for that 1 monster spawn Wave.
At higher levels and using certain Multiple attacks in a full group will produce better results, but again... higher levels where you can use those abilities more often.
There are many other things I have not mentioned, like the level (Tier) of your weapon and the level of your character (if too high level will reduce the amount of prof gain per wave).
Like I said, I prof hunt, that is my enjoyment of this game, I have done the Group climbs for MQ's, items etc, but that is what everyone is doing for themselves, and that is great they play that way and I don't give them shit about it, but people love to give me shit about how I want to play the game aye? As you pointed out with your response.
