Shared EXP pot and Single EXP pot - they stack but does the effect stack ? DEV's Could we get a confirmation on this for Corny server please and thank you.
- Bottle of Shared Adventure effects can now land on you even if you have an existing single-target experience enhancing effect active. These effects do not stack with each other -- only the most powerful one will affect your experience. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-june-20-2018.249930/ This change was made in response to multiple complaints they players couldn't help their group if they already had a solo exp potion going.
so say I have a solo xp pot going with 30 mins left on it and then someone casts a group pot. will I get the bonus from the group pot when the solo one falls off?
Yes, you get the best effect of any experience gain buffs you currently have. In this case, the solo one fades and you still have the group one so you get the XP bonus from that effect. This is exactly the situation our change was meant to address, as previously the group buff would not land as it would be blocked by the solo version.
Can you create EXP potions that have unlimited durations but instead have counters? IE an exp potion that works for 200 EXP hits. This way if something comes up or if a friend needs help on something time sensitivities that isn’t extremely high number of mob kills / EXP, your potion isn’t getting burned by going to help them? It would also be good for the single vs group potions as you’d get the full benefit of both as it would eat through the remaining counters on the single and then start in on the group counters.
Maybe that patch note can be added into the potions loretab or something? I forsee this coming up alot.
