# Idle Experience Rewards
The Idle Experience Rewards system allows players to earn passive experience points simply by staying online. This feature is designed to reward player loyalty and time spent in-game while maintaining the importance of active gameplay.
### How It Works
Every hour, online players automatically receive Base and Job experience based on their current level. The system runs silently in the background and displays a message in your chat window whenever you receive your hourly reward.
**Example Message:**
```
[Idle EXP]: Base +15000 (0.52%) | Job +7500 (1.23%)
```
### Requirements
| Requirement | Details |
| ------------- | ------------------- |
| Minimum Level | 40 |
| Maximum Level | 90 |
| Vending | Must not be vending |
Players below level 40 or above level 90 will not receive idle rewards. Additionally, characters that are vending or using autotrading will not receive rewards.
### Experience Rates
The idle experience system provides approximately **5% of what active grinding would yield**. This means staying online for 20 hours would give you roughly the same experience as 1 hour of active monster hunting.
| Level Range | Base EXP/Hour | Job EXP/Hour |
| ----------- | --------------- | --------------- |
| 40 - 49 | 8,800 - 9,500 | 4,400 - 4,750 |
| 50 - 59 | 15,000 - 15,900 | 7,500 - 7,950 |
| 60 - 69 | 22,800 - 24,100 | 11,400 - 12,050 |
| 70 - 79 | 29,100 - 30,800 | 14,550 - 15,400 |
| 80 - 90 | 33,600 - 45,800 | 16,800 - 22,900 |
### Frequently Asked Questions
#### Do I need to be actively playing to receive rewards?
No. You can be completely AFK and still receive rewards as long as you meet the requirements.
#### Can I receive rewards while vending?
No. Characters that are vending or using autotrade will not receive idle experience.
#### Why is there a level cap at 90?
The level cap encourages players to actively grind for the final levels (91-99), preserving the challenge and accomplishment of reaching max level.
#### Does this work for Rebirth/Transcendent classes?
Yes, the system works for all classes as long as your Base Level is between 40 and 90.
#### Will I see a notification when I receive EXP?
Yes. A message will appear in your chat window showing the exact amount of Base and Job EXP received along with the percentage toward your next level.
### Tips
* Leave your character online in a safe location like a town to maximize idle rewards
* Combine idle rewards with active gameplay for the best leveling experience
* Remember that active grinding is still way more efficient than idle rewards.
