There seems to be a problem with the way XP is calculated now. I just ran Heyton's Rest on Elite for the first time this life. Here is my XP
Base 356
First time completing quest on Elite 80%
First time completing quest 20%
Bravery Streak 50%
Daily Playthrough 20%
Conquest 25%
Tamper 8%
Vandal 10%
Persistence 10%
Flawless 10%
Ship 3%
Gift of Master 5%
356*1.8*1.2*1.5*1.2*1.25*1.08*1.1*1.1*1.1*1.05*1.0 3=2689
I received 1468 including 108 bonus (this is the ship and master' gift )
It seems that the 80% First time completing Elite bonus doesn't apply. If you remove this and round down after each multiplier the total is about right.

Nice and easy one to answer.
XP bonusses don't work the way you've described.
They're not multiplicative.
Look at more example and you'll be able to work it out. Some are calculated as a % of the "Base" XP, others like VOM get added at the end to your gross amount.
Once you get the numbers working, look out for an XP event running and you'll see how that factors into things.

Add all the bonuses together (not ship or voice) and then multiply it with ship + voice. So in this case 356*1.8+.2+.5+.2+.25+.08+.1+.1+.1)*(1.05+.03)

The equation you wrote is incomplete. I assume that you mean 356*(1.8+.2+.5+.2+.25+.08+.1+.1+.1)*(1.05+.03) but that equals 1280 which still isn't correct.
Maybe as Deadlock says somewhere the breakdown of what is added before multiplying is still not correct.

Well, in any case, it would seem you benefited from the error, instead of losing xp. Be happy

You forgot to include your Greater Tome of Learning.

There have been no changes to how the existing XP bonusses gets calculated, just the addition of the Playthrough bonus.
