Can't figure out the math about the alert XP gain (boosts)

    25% territory at the end of the alert. That should be 2500 XP. I got membership and heroic boost (2x +50%), so that would be 5000 XP. I got ~6000 XP ( yay :) ), so that's an additional +40% based on the original sum, and I can't figure out what other boosts resulted in this. Can you shed light on it?

    you see the boost percentage indicator in the down right corner of the minimap. hover with the mouse over it to see a detailed explanation.

    So you mean that everything there, except the +30% from the alarm itself, will apply to the end reward? I think that might fit. This would also explain why I had trouble explaining the XP I got at alert ends where I wasn't online the full two hours.

    When you aren't online the full 2 hours, you only get a reward based on the % of the alert that you were online. So if you are only online for 1 hour out of 2, you only get 50% of the max reward.
