	Does the saga xp reward bypass the 2 level XP cap? If it does, would you be able to repeatedly take a broken build through the Pirates saga and not use your levels until you have enough to take your 20 and TR? Of course, none of my characters are broken. This is merely for science.

	I thought pirates saga is one time only on heroic.

	Hence why I wrote heroic and not epic, and he wants to use it to get to 20, not to 28. Heroic used to be one time only per life, epic you could repeat as much as you want. Note: As of Update 23, this saga is now repeatable, and on a three-day raid timer.

	i know today i somehow broke the 2 level "cap". was level 6, holding 7, 1 rank from 8 (rank 35) when i decided to finish off my explore stuff in searing. Ended up with ~40k from there, however i only needed 20k to cap out. upon taking level 7, i magically had an extra 20k granted to me.

Quest xp will cap you, but slayers, MM xp, probably some other sources will let you overflow. If you level up you get to keep it. If you logout it resets back to cap.

Can you continue questing to build up the overflow? or will it still only be affected by slayers and the like.

	92k is for epic, I doubt heroic gives even half. http://ddowiki.com/page/The_Pirates_of_the_Thunder_Sea_(heroic) Heroic gives 26k xp.

	Yeah, not worth it. Easier to just follow along/pike someone else's XP farming run.

	I've experienced saga xp, daily dice xp and MM xp taking me over 2 level cap with no resetting and can be built upon as long as you want with any of the three I mentioned

Probably some other sources = Daily Dice, Otto's, lifeshaper LR, Epic, Iconic xp grant, veteran ship grant, etc. But these persist indefinitely. EDIT: Ninja'd

	any XP from stones seems to be stored in a separate counter. I consistently broke the 2 level cap, but would not progress further then the amount consumed from XP stones. That though was pre u23, and pre last night's fix.
