Why 100% aa or 100% regular xp?

[Hunkan]

I have seen this stated before to go 100% in either direction. As I'm 1.1 aa away from getting my Canni V and about to start the level grind I see the forum also talking about SCM etc and I'm tempted to maybe go 10 or 20% aa and the rest regular xp so I can get SCM as I gain levels, but what is the rationale (or debate) for going 100% aa or regular xp?

I die a lot.

Currently at about 50% of level 70. Running all AA until I drop down to about 30%, then will beef it back up again. I wait for Rez VetAA to be active before trying stupid soloing trick of the week.

I die more than Samanna. I run 90/10 to keep up with myself, and still lose ground on some raids. I have to do exp groups to get ahead at all. I try to be 90%+ into 70, because I really do run the regular risk of dying that much.

Splitting exp at level 70 as a hard raider with 650aa already done is a whole different idea than splitting while not at the level cap.

I agree with Samanna and Brogh. If you raid and die in 70 you really need to stay at 10% regular exp to overcome the loss from deaths. Level 70 is not like level 65 was, it takes a lot more exp to fill up. I advise getting 20% reg exp in 70 before switching to 90/10 so you can eat an unrezzed death if necessary and get your AAs while still gaining reg exp. Since I got to 99% reg exp in 70 I switch to 100% AA until I drop back down to 90% then switch back to 90/10 until I fill back up again.

I am set at 10% reg and 90% AA. Currently about 35% into level. I am doing so I do not have to worry about dying and incase some point in the future they raise the level cap again I will be very close.

Back to the original question which did not include the level 70 split debate. I can see where the 100% one way or the other makes the most sense. I personally ran with it split most of the time. I realize now this was probably silly but it all came out in the wash so to speak.

well, if you ever raid, an EXP buffer is a must, I tend to go 100% AA on a normal basis, I have about 50% of lvl70 as my buffer (having a big buffer is nice) if my buffer goes down by more than 1/2 a gold bubble, I switch down to 50% AA, that way I build up AAs/exp quickly on a usual basis, and reduce when needed for rebuilding my buffer.

but thats all normal EXP is to a lvl 70, an experience buffer, a security zone for multiple/unrezzed deaths. when leveling, its different, a level 70 doesn't have to worry about exp gain to the next level, while a level 60 does. at level 70, you should be working AAs at all times, because honestly, where else does it need to go?
