I didn't see this one coming, actually; I thought they would charge up their staffs a bit later. Everyone has their eyes on XP-based minor wishes, but is waiting until they have met some character goals first; I doubt I'll see that really happen until people have ~5000 XP total.
That is very useful information, thank you. Are you doling out XP at the rates suggested in the new ITL?
