My understanding of hell levels (and this is just I believe what was posted when they were taken out) is as follows: The developers intended to have the amount of xp to level increase at 30->35 by X amount, spread out among the levels. Then from 35-40 it would increase by Y amount, spread out among the levels. And so on, for 40-45 and 45-50. Except a bug in the code had that full xp amount applied to just the 1st level in each of the ranges, so level 30 would take the regular xp amount + X, and the rest of the levels would proceed normally. And so forth.
At the very least that is approximately what Verant posted about it when they ended up removing hell levels.
My question along these lines is why is it on this server that hell levels are 29/34/etc rather than 30/35/etc?
