    I'm not complaining but curious. What is the use for the Swag pudding. The researchers and the D.I.R.T.Y daily only take a few minutes to complete. The harvesting for these is more time consuming than the crafting side. Since it says it cannot be stored up, I don't see the point in it. I did notice I am getting double drops from the crates on the daily and research reward so that is nice.

    If you have ever done Moonlight Enchantments, or crafting writs to level your guild, You will appreciate the progress potions.

    or some crafting can take 5 minutes or more for one item if you don't get a little speed boost.

    Question about The Bonus Prestige Point item. Does this mean we can get this 20 times? Or we can only use from Prestige point 1-20. If I have 60 Prestige, can I still use this 20 times to get to 80 Prestige?

    Question, I might be misunderstanding this, but it says the Prestige points are unlocked on account. Does this mean alts can run the solo's to get your main prestige points? Because when I logged into my alt it did not show new points to spend.

    These *should* be equivalent to the twenty 'Bonus Prestige Points' introduced in RoS, used in the right side of the prestige AA tab. They are account wide, and these appear to unlock any one rather than being specific points ala the previous achievement reward system, so it shouldn't even matter how many alts you buy them on, but twenty will still be the limit account wide. [ Edit - including any already earned through achievements, I'm sure.]

    That is how I read it to be, but like I said, when I logged into my alt I didn't see any extra points to spend....

    Question: For those of us who don't have 125 ADV chars, but DO have 125 TS chars, are there any things that will be of use to us? It SOUNDS like it, but I wanted to make sure. Thanks :)

    What? No.

    This is the 'Gear Up, Level Up' event under a new name.

    You can only have up to 20 bonus prestige points. Whether from this, or from the bonus prestige points you have obtained from previous years. If you were already at cap, this will do nothing, because you are at cap.
    If you have 15 from the previous years, you can get 5 from this.

    I occasionally use the potions I get from rewards. I don't see how a temporary potion that will leave my bag within 10 days, only able to get on my 125 characters will help with the low level stuff that have the long combines though. Overall I am happy with getting double loot from the crates. I just don't see a temporary potion I have to adventure with to get the items to buy it being a good tradeskill reward.

    Thank you. I forgot there is a difference between "Prestige Points" and "Bonus Prestige Points"
