minion XP

Is it possible to calculate that a hero how many xp soaked from only minions? This information missing even from the exported .csv file.

While the replay file format does appear to mark when xp globes spawn it does not seem to indicate which unit specifically picks it up. Instead, it just marks which team picked it up. Because XP globe values also change over time, it would be difficult to compute this number without that data.

There does appear to be a minion kills stat that is not being exposed in stats of the storm at the moment, and I can look to see if I can enable that easily (unsure when it popped up, so older replays might be missing that field).

"it just marks which team picked it up" But the system should know who picked it up, because without this knowledge the XP contribution stat can't be calculated per hero. Minion kill stat shouldn't give valid info to XP because mage minions doesn't give xp. Or am I wrong?

It calculates that internally but does not expose the XP breakdown per hero (only per team). When an XP globe minion is marked as "killed" by the system, the killing unit ID is the team (11 or 12), and not the hero that picks it up, at least as far as I can tell in the replay. There's a chance this info is actually there but I have yet to find it in the replay data.

Thank you very much!
