0 YPP Tip of the Day - What "unrated" means

greeter chats, "unrated fight counts on experience?"

Did I really just read this question on Greeter chat?

Standing and Experience go hand in hand. One cannot change without the other.

Quick recap that I wrote in the Newbie Guide:

Standing (in red): Standing, or rank, is how well you do in relation to others. You have to do better than

others to improve in rank. Rank is dynamic.  It can go up or down. This is what people look at when they say “Stats”.

Experience (in green): how long you’ve played this puzzle. Exp is static. It can only go up.Pro tip: this word doesn’t really mean all that much when jobbing with others.

Standing can only have a chance to change when you do the puzzle (i.e. Experience goes up.) The two are linked, and one cannot change without the other. So, vice versa, when you do an unrated fight, there is no chance for standing to change. Which means that the Experience isn't counted.

In a similar fashion, because the Bnav standing only takes into account Pillage Bnav and not Flotillas, SMHs, etc.... even if you spend 1000 hours Bnaving Atlantis, your experience will still remain at Broad.
