Raise a pending XP claim

Note XP as pending instead of paying it immediately, then release or cancel it later.

In the menus: ESC → About → XP → PENDING

Raising a claim instead of paying

Raise a claim from the AWARD tab.

Amount opens on the server default. Clear it or set it to 0 for a pending-only claim, or leave an amount there to split one act into a payment and a claim.

Enter the XP to claim in Pending.

The first Reason is required. Give the pending half its own reason in the second box, or leave that box blank to reuse the first. Press AWARD to raise the claim.

sf_xppendingdays ships at 14. Set it to 0 and first-rung claims never expire either.

For a character with no mentor there is only the first rung, and approving pays it.

For a character who has a mentor, approving a first-rung claim vouches for it and passes it to the mentor for final approval.

Approving a claim

Select the row and press APPROVE.

The panel and ordinary list show claims you raised and claims awaiting you as a mentor. WAITING ON reads mine for your first-rung claims and mentor for second-rung claims.

Cancelling a claim

CANCEL CLAIM destroys the claim outright. It moves no XP, writes nothing to the ledger and says nothing to the recipient.

You can cancel a claim you raised even after passing it up to a mentor for final approval.

Leadership admins can list every second-rung claim, including one left with an absent mentor:

For a character without a mentor, a split award looks like this:
