    Same has happened to me...just not that bad. I have to wait till my 5th day to receive the 3X blessing. Sucks but worth the wait.

    Another day of XP blessings on 2 of my 3 capped toons. Guess I'll be playing Halo 4 for the rest of the weekend.

That's your "base xp." Now let's say you get a 3x blessing, and you're now getting 3 xp per kill. The effects of the elixir are giving you 2 bonus xp for every kill (1 base xp + 2 bonus xp from the elixir). Here's where it gets tricky. When you stack elixirs, only the effects of the elixirs stack, not the base, which remains at 1. So now let's say you buy a plat 3x elixir to stack on the 3x blessing you already have. Your xp gain will now be 1 base xp + 2 bonus xp from the first elixir + 2 bonus xp from the second elixir, which would end up giving you a total of 5 xp per kill, or the equivalent of a 5x if that existed.

    With a 1.5x elixir, for every xp point you only get .5 bonus xp. So if you stack them, you're getting 1 base + .5 bonus + .5 bonus, which equals a total of 2, or the equivalent of a 2x.

    1. Make multiple toons like Sue and *cough cough* some others
    2. Purchase a 2x combo elixir, this is 7 plat for 30 mins.
    3. Farm at lower levels. E.g. in Sewers I don't believe luck elixirs make much of a difference. You can also farm crafting materials at Nuri's (glyphic steels are good but very rare but you do have a realistic chance of getting glyphic wood which is not too bad).
    4. Farm elite dragon, chances of getting a pink are decent even without luck elixir.
    5. If you need to complete a quest (e.g. elite dragon), you can purchase 2k gold elixirs depending on your needs. E.g. now that 2x damage weekend is on you can get 1.5 armor and you will do fine. Even a 1.25 armor blessing helps because it stacks so your armor will go to 1.25+1.5 = 2.75x.
    Yeah makes sense thanks bro

    I decided to go for cap 2 weeks ago and didn't get any combos the entire time. The day after I capped, and 2 hours after I killed my 76th dragon and Onyx, I got a 3x blessing. For that 24 hours, I got less pinks from the Dragon than I got when I had no elixir at all. It's just bad luck.

    Yesterday all my capped mains got xp elixirs ...today they all have 1.5 combos. Out of the 12 to 15 toons I do dailies on, today they mainly had 1.25 or 1.5 combos. I got one with x3 and some were on their 5th day and got antennas. So today ...lots of choice but probably tomorrow will be a quiet pl day as they will mostly be on day 5 rewards. Liquidation ftw!

    we need definite elixirs that we can be sure we get, like day 5 we should DEFINITELY get any combo elixir (and 2x combo needs to be added to daily!)

    That only works once. After that, you have to forget to pretend to forget about it, and get it on time. It gets much more complicated after that, as you have to keep forgetting to forget different things at different times. One work around I have found is to put together a spread sheet of what I need to forget and then forget to update it.

    I'm sorry to say this, but my previous comment about me never getting x3 combos can be revoked. I get three in a row this weekend

    When you get a good one (or two) make one of your toons miss a day and reset. A lil tricky to get done sometimes. Every day I have one or two at five days the rest are staggered so I never have all toons at day five.
