My character doesn't earn experience anymore. I discover things and the game show me gaining experience above the character's head but it doesn't actually go into the character and I can't study any curios.

More information please. Devs need to know which character and account (if more than one character or on another account).

Experience points (XP) are different than learning points (LP). Experience is generated by events, such as experiencing the rising of the sun, and quests. LP are generated initially by discovery and later by studying curiosities. Some can be gained from questing.

Frequently characters that are only engaged in a single activity get stuck because they're not out doing a variety of activities in the world. Try doing something different or triggering lore events.

I am now seeing this as well on one character. Strangely enough the hunter/gatherer, although I have not been able to spend so much time outside walls lately. It must have been an issue for longer than I have known, since she had a lot last I looked. I just have not been paying attention, until she had 1 pts left..

It is not moving now.

are you sure you're not using XP heavy curios? I select my curios on my main based on XP cost, so I can upgrade wells, I could have way more LP gains but prefer the XP buffer

For the first time this has happened to me now too, I noticed it first on Monday, since then I have been doing everything possible to gain experience but I'm just not getting any, she is down to 2 points now and so I'm unable to study anything ... :(

Edit;

Ok, scrap that ... I just finally got some, lol, logged back in after posting and climbed up a cliff and got the exp, hopefully more will now follow. :)

There may be a random rare issue with this, but there hasn't been much in the way of posts about it on the forums, either in Bugs or "How Do I?" so pulling this one down from the top. We'll put a link to here for those that need ideas on what to do if they are running shy on experience points and can't seem to farm any up.
