PA experience values screwed up

[DesuJet]

I'm taking advantage of the wave of polties to level my laser cannons. I've noticed from LV21-30 that I gain around 45%. Last run my cannon art was 30 and I got it to 31 in the middle of the spawn. At the last 3 polties it hit 32, which I thought was unbelievable since I've never leveled it twice in one run after it hit 21.

I don't think Sega knows what the hell they did when they supposedly "rebalanced" the experience values. What do you think?

It's normally easier to get from 31->32 than it is from 30-31. That's how it's been in my experience.

Getting from Lv. 1 to Lv. 2 takes the fewest amount of hits to level up than any other level within the gap of Lv. 1 to Lv. 11.

Getting from Lv. 10 to Lv. 11 requires the most amount of hits to level up than any other level within the same range between Lv. 1 and Lv. 11.

The amount of EXP required for every level increases exponentially until you get to Lv. 11, Lv. 21, Lv. 31 or Lv. 41. Then the process starts again.

This is true for every single PA.

Personally, I'm glad that it's like this. Can you imagine how bad things would be if the EXP required to level up a PA increases exponentially with each level? Rifles and Twin Handguns are bad enough as they are around Lv. 47.

Oh, so wut yer sayin iz 31-32 would be fast than 39-40?

yes getting from X1 to X2 is always the fastest level in those 10 levels. getting from X0 to X1 is always the slowest.

they do this because X1 is always the next level up in any PA, so it should be the hardest/longest level.

when i say next level up i mean the boost in the status/damage/graphics of that PA.

opposite, from 31-32 easier 39-40 longer, each tier resets somewhat and the higher you are in a tier the longer it will take you to level. I've had lasers take forever to get to 40, but once they hit 41 they go so much faster till about 46

The same thing happened to me, I was leveling my plasma laser and it went from level 30 (86%) to level 32 (38%) in one run. Before that I was only getting 25-30% EXP per run. PAs always level faster when they hit the next tier but lasers seem especially fast. I'm not complaining though!

No, the opposite to what I said would be 31-32 longer, 39-40 faster.

20-21 takes long than 31-32 in most cases to me.
