Is excess Incarnate Exp wasted?

Or will it carry over into the other, as of yet unlocked, incarnate slots when they open?

On BAF and Lambda, it will automatically carry over to the second slot, once you've unlocked the first. Once you've unlocked both, it vanishes; Physical does not carry over to the Psychic slots, nor vice-versa.

On Keyes, it gets split between the two types. As above, if one slot unlocks, it carries over to the second. I haven't been able to test it, but I believe that on Keyes, if you unlock both on one side, all the iXP goes to the other. Again, when you've unlocked all the slots, anything earned afterwards is lost; it is not saved for later.

i doubt it would carry over, to me unlocking the slot is like unlocking a new level, once its done its done (ie to me unlocking all the current slots is like reaching level 50 again)

I'm pretty sure it's "wasted".

Working example from past, vaguely similar situations. Early after both CoH and CoV were first released, the level caps were 40, not 50. If you hit level 40 and did anything, you earned inf only, not XP. Nothing you did "banked" XP towards level 50.

More generically, the devs want us to actually run whatever content they create to go along with getting the remaining slots. If we could bank iXP towards them, we would potentially be able to "level up" to unlock the slots without touching the new content. The devs aren't likely to favor that possibility. (The same logic applied to the level 40 - 50 cap changes.)

Thanks, that makes sense and I didn't see it stated from a "Red name" anywhere.

It irks me a little, but I understand.
