If no experience is gained, a tome will have no effect, since you are at a level cap.Īs an addendum, in multiplayer games, I believe that a "Tome of Experience" will always have an effect, so long as your character is below level 10. If you gained experience, a purchased tome will have an effect. This is also an easy way to test whether or not you should spend money on an experience tome. Killing creeps will still reward gold, but you will get no further experience.Īs you've already realized, you can tell when you've hit a level cap by the fact that your experience bar will be empty and will not fill when killing a creep. In multiplayer games, your heroes can not advance beyond level 5 without fighting an opponent's units. In Warcraft 3's (and its expansion's) campaigns, your heroes will often have a level cap that grows as you progress through the campaign. how would I know when that is the case, so as to save myself the gold wasted on a Tome Of Experience?Īs your commenters have pointed out, there are a couple of different level caps that you're running into. If it is indeed a level cap, then what is the indication - the blank experience meter? I.e.
What can be done to force the meter to refresh - or whatever else is necessary? Youll still be commanding armies as either the humans.

Blizzard surprised everyone at Blizzcon 2018 by announcing a complete, built-from-scratch remaster of Warcraft 3. If there is something which prevents gains at certain points along the quest progression, then one would expect that using Tome Of Experience would similarly be prevented.
My heroes have slain a few enemies at level 8 and 9, among other things. Also, their numbers are almost the same: at 4400 points required for level 9, Rexxar has 3506 and Rokhan has 3504.įurthermore, I've since done enough that I would expect my heroes would've gained a level by now. I tried restarting War3.exe, but that didn't change anything.īoth my heroes are at level 8. I don't know when this incident began, but it could've been when I was exiting Thunder Ridge and returning to Durotar. Stuff like this has happened during normal campaign or multiplayer games for both warcraft-3 and warcraft-3-frozen-throne the incident which prompted this question occurred with the so–called Bonus Campaign (‘OrcX’) in The Frozen Throne - the one with Rexxar the Beastmaster which plays like a quest–based RPG. The numbers shown when the mouse cursor is over the bar show no increase the blue bar filling from the left is not displayed at all. I notice at times that my experience meters aren't showing gains when either
