Like Rowley said, it's just an easier way to compare it to other methods. Training methods are calculated based on xp/h rather than xp/day lol. D&Ds are training methods too, therefore have xp/h calculations too.

But...but...but why have a calculation at all when they already said "this will take you 20 mins and you'll make 20k in those 20 mins"

I...what...who...where...when...pie...will...eh...?!?!?????

Because to deem whether it's "worth it" you have to compare it to other methods, which are based on xp/hr (like 95% of methods ever are defined in xp/hr), it's easier to convert the xp/15 minutes method to xp/hr than it is to convert the xp/hr method to xp/15 minutes. Unslain Bosses - Clan

If you can work out the xp/h based on the xp gained in X time, then great; however, others may not be bothered to make that calculation so having the xp/h calculation helps those people KNOW if it's worth doing or not.

You might not need to see that calculation yourself, but others may do. It's simply easier to use xp/h to compare to other methods. There's no better way to explain it.

But, end of the day, is free shit - free 20k exp per day, takes 20 mins to do.

Just do eet, get 20k free exp. I see no reason to spend even a min or two to do math to see if better than another method or 4% slower than the best = not gonna bother - because can still do it for free shit daily! D:

Fair enough for peeps that like their calcs etc, I like em too, tho this just....seeems pointless lol.
