Re: Ship and fleet experience
I think he probably just didn't explain it very clearly. I think what this means is:
+1 ship experience per kill the ship makes.
+0.1 fleet experience per kill the fleet makes.
The stuff he wrote about 5 experience points to go up an experience level is probably referring to the word used to describe the experience level (e.g. Novice, Veteran, Elite, etc.)
The stuff he wrote about ships getting experience for kills their fleet makes is a (confusing) way of explaining the effect of fleet experience. I think it just means the fleet gains experience, and the effect of fleet experience is added to the effect of ship experience. Not that the ship experience actually goes up when some other ship in the fleet makes a kill.
Of course, it's also possible Aaron is mistaken about how it actually works in the current patch.
Now, to test the assertion that fleet experience goes up by +0.1 per ship the fleet kills...

Re: Ship and fleet experience
Looks like nobody is able to understand how the experience system works. I'll make more tests and then I'll bug Aaron again.

Re: Ship and fleet experience
I think PvK's interpretation of what Aaron said is the most accurate one...

Re: Ship and fleet experience
Not 'nobody' then.
I'm sure it's not +0.1 fleet experience per kill, because it requires a way more ships than 10 to get 1% of fleet experience.
However I think a ship gets ships experiece also if the fleet its in makes a kill. If you fight a big battle with unexperienced ships, you'll notice the sum of every ship's experience is more than number of enemy ships.
