It’s great in theory but how do envisage it working in practice?
Do xp points earned still count towards levels despite being exchanged, as they do with temple poses. If yes, that’s fine, especially for non prems who only have one 750 xp pose. If not would people want to give up progress? And I’m not sure Devs would do it this way.
Assuming that they allowed full credit for points earned as with temple poses, what would the exchange rate be? A lvl 7 has at least 13,500 points, 12,750 assuming the 1 non prem pose. At 1xp/$ that would be worth $12,750, surely too much: at 10xp/$ $1275, useful but less than an hour in rodeo: and at 100xp/$ it’s only worth $127.50, so neither here nor there. If you earned a further 300xp that would be worth $300, $30 and $3 respectively.
I think that the only way it could work is if you could only exchange xp in excess of your lvl, eg above 13,500(12,750 shown) for lvl 7, and at good rate, maybe in range 1-3xp/$. Not sure if xp exchanged for$ should count towards lvls or not.
But there are still some problems. The top lvl, (currently 10) gets no points and all high levels relatively few. This does not encourage people to meet up and progress and may even favour some not wanting exchanged xp to count towards lvls. And it can be scammed by a high lvl creating a new AV and giving it a lot of xp.
