Our events might get a bit more popular with this :). You gain exp again after 50 :D. This system reminds me a lot of Guild Wars 1, where you kept earning skill points after your turned 20 which you could use to buy skills. Should be interesting :)
Copy of the post for those that don't go to the link: ---------------- Planar Attunement Beyond level 50 Your Ascended can already commune with the mightiest souls ever to walk Telara. Now, Planar Attunement puts the primal energy of the planes at your fingertips! Beyond ultimate power Upon achieving level 50 and completing the Chronicle of Attunement, all XP earned (from kills, dungeons, raids, quests, Chronicles, zone invasions, anything!) counts toward your next Planar Attunement level. Each level grants you 100 Attunement Points to spend in one of the six planes. Each plane offers a grid of bonuses (listed below) that you can access after purchasing its core power (central hex). Every bonus you unlock opens its adjacent hexes for purchase. Buy multiple ranks of the same bonus, or branch off into other powers and benefits, customizing your character as you attune to the planes. Specialize in one element, generalize across a few, or earn them all—the choice is yours! Endless possibilities Attunement Planar Attunement lets you: Improve your most important stats. Master your weapons and cast more potent spells. Maximize your effectiveness against the planes and their denizens, making their strength your own. Open rifts to planes of your choosing, influencing how the dynamic war for Telara will unfold! Ride faster, reduce falling damage, and much more! The Ascended alone can harness the power of the planes. Level 50 is only the beginning... ---------------- There was also a pretty picture of a grid of hexagons with icons to choose. (Although no indication what the icons mean.) This is an interesting idea for progressing beyond level 50. I like that you can choose where you put your progression points to focus on what is more important to you.
One thing I am wondering is if the post-50 XP is cumulative from when you hit 50 (like AC-1 when they raised the cap) or if it begins with Patch 1.5?
As I understand it from reading info from the PTS, this is only available after 1.5 is live.
