| Jun 14, 2011 at 20:58 | comment | added | BlueRaja - Danny Pflughoeft | @Stephen: @Random832 is correct, both "exponential" and "geometric" growth refer to having a constant ratio between successive/equidistant terms (which means the rate of growth is proportional to the current value - in calculus this is stated by saying an exponential function has f'(x) = c*f(x)). The term "geometric" is used when the domain (input) is discrete (eg. integer). The formula for @George's example, above level 1, is Experience = 100 * 2^(Level-2), which is exponential. The formula for your progression, above level 1, is Experience = 100^(Level-1), also exponential. | |

| Jun 14, 2011 at 17:31 | comment | added | Random832 | No, it's just a slower exponential (multiplying by 10 every ~3.3 levels, or 100 every ~6.6 levels, instead of every level). Geometric would be like 1[00], 4, 9, 25, 36, etc. Even 1100 1210 1331 1464 is an exponential series, multiplying by 1.1. | |
