Falsely Advertised Elixir Perhaps?

[Zeus]

Hello,

I recently hit 71 on my bird, Apollo, using a combination of the thrasher punch and 7 day elixir. To my calculations, this would make it out to 6x xp, correct?

I found out, the entire time while running Mega Maze, I was only getting 4XP per kill, which was definitely not what was advertised. I grinded about 30k XP before I realized this.

So I figured, no big deal, support can probably refund me the elixir, HOWEVER, they didn't!

I just wanted to let others know that in Mega Maze at least, with the enable XP elixir, the 7 day elixir + thrasher combo does NOT work as advertised.

[DexGOD]

It does work as advertised. The mob multiplier with enable XP elixirs at lower level campaigns is well below 1 XP per kill.

[FluffNStuff]

DexGOD is correct, and it looks like you are getting 2/3 XP for low level kills which would be why the 6X is 4X on them.

[wvhills]

maybe u can level in appropriate areas.

[Gaunab]

maybe u can level in appropriate areas.

Agreed. Parth really needs to learn to play his class properly which he will never achieve if he just keeps jamming buttons in low level dungeons.

[TANKKAAR]

I ran 2 full hours in the lagoon and still only came up with your typical 4x xp or approx 8k per hr ... This was with full thrashed team and the double experience elixir. That coupled with the fact that it was purchased on the wrong toon (refused to switch the elixir to the correct character) and I decided all level later ...

O.O
wow, all i gotta say.

[LwMark]

Is this why when say u have 234/235 and u wanna get 235/235 and u kill a mob u sometimes get 2kills? Because i did this on lwmarkjr at l10 but i got a roll back but now im scared to do it again just in case it does it again. And i dont have plat like that to buy new inspec pages each time. Anyone can help?

Gotta be REALLY careful with that because it is not showing you the decimal points. So you might be at 234.2 or 234.8 and you don't know, and you are not exactly sure how much the mob is going to give you, is .5,1.0, 1.5? That is why people see their exp sometimes go up by two, sometimes by one and sometimes not at all when killing the same mobs.

Hey guys,

As Fluff outlines above, the rates for exp gain depend on a number of factors, including (but not limited to) your groupsize, your level and the levels of the critters. Exp is fractional, in that a kill may ultimately only give you a portion of a point (.2 for example) and then have your multipliers go into effect. Now, I will say that the new 2x 7 day elixir is a new thing for us and I wouldn't ever say anything is foolproof. However, the testing team (that does have access to the full numerical view of a character's level progression) did observe correct behavior by stacking elixirs with the new 7 day one.

If you do feel that the elixir is not working for you, we want to hear the details. Please write our Support Team at support@spacetimestudios.com and include as much detail as possible. Now I know that Apollo already reported his findings to our team and we didn't have reason to believe that it wasn't working as advertised - but there are a lot of variables involved and it is entirely possible that a different set of variables could be problematic. Regardless, we always try to do right by our customers and I think Apollo can attest to that from our previous correspondence.

Thanks, as always, for your support!

Can there be an option for players to see decimals?

I <3 decimals!

Ah, thanks Sam! Yes, you guys are amazing with your support.

Lol, Gau

I was leveling there for around 30k of my exp because I have stitches on my hand & it was easier to one hit mobs by myself than lingering behind on a Humania map.

I feel as though we're taking stack in the wrong way. Instead of it being multiplied, it's added. We're gaining the extra XP from the 4x + the extra xp from the 2x making it a total of 5x(Our normal 1x + 3x extra + 1x extra). When you do the math, 5x seems to work out when I compare 5 minutes of hidden passage on 4x to 5 minutes of hidden passage on 4x + the 2x.

Main reason why I wasn't on PL for a few days when you were asking, Chris.

If it is 5x then they are advertising it wrong...

Yes, once you purchase the 7 day 2X exp elixir, you will have that effect on that character for 7 consecutive days (it is always counting down). You can stack any other exp elixir on top of it. If you get a 4x exp elixir, you would then have a total of 6x exp.

I guess it depends on your definition of stacking.

Hmm, it would be appreciated if STS could be extremeley detailed with these things to avoid confusion.

I'm not doubting the injury, I just don't think it's the reason you chose fathom over humania.

I never counted enemies, so it could be my non-consistent run times. It would be best for someone who would be counting kills to have more accurate figures to go off of.
