I Used Hyper Exp 2x Today then when the 2 hours were up i tried using it again and now i get a message saying

"When there is remaining Hyper EXP left in session, you can not start another Hyper EXP Session. You may only start 1 Hyper Exp Session a day."

can someone explain how it works to me cause im confused and yes i have 0 minutes of Hyper EXP left right now and just 3:24 Buffer time and 39:59 Exhausted.

Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    Isn't there some sort of 20 hour cooldown where you can't use another one of those?

    Yeah it looks like after your 2 hours of hyper exp, you'll have 3 hours of normal experience, then 19 hours of 90% normal experience before you can use another - not sure why it says 39 hours tho.

    How do you pause the Hyper Exp? Is there a button to pause and resume it, or its done only if you log off? And, if you pause it, you can resume it but it will consume one minute right?

    i believe there is a certain time where you can use more stones to continue hyper xp and you missed it.

    There is a debuff period after the completion of your Hyper EXP time. Just as the error message states, you cannot activate two Hyper EXP sessions one right after another.

    The debuff thing is dumb IMO. The exhaustion timer continues while youre not playing. The exp boost however; doesnt.
    So its basically just 20 hours of not playing PWI. Or if you do, you can do quests and get exp from the quests.

    That would indeed be the point - it's t encourage casual players to not get discouraged.

    The whole "You have to spend stones in one go" thing is also a pretty clever way to get people to overspend.

    Did you perchance read the bit where it says "You may only activate one session per day" or something like that?

    did you perchance read the bit where i said "i already used 2 in a row" i used more then 1 already today and i still have hours left on exhaustion but i would like some Definition on the stones cause i bought quite a few of them.

    How long? If it's one Hyper EXP per day - why all times can be stacked (as wrote in help).

    Also, second question.
    I'm not sure so can someone check it may be.
    Yesterday i did FC. Well, all know that boss exp not subject of Hyper EXP (why QQ). But with Activated Hyper EXP i got less exp than ppl without Hyper. With paused Hyper - all ok. So, if u doing boss in FC with activated Hyper - check pls exp with same level party members.

    I ran into a similar issue as Esco. I used the x12 xp for 1 hour twice in a row yesterday, in other words I did two (2) one hour (1 hr) sessions at 12x Xp. Now between the two sessions I had about a 4 min down time (just moving from one grind area to another) and there was no issue. After my second session, I again too about 4-5 min downtime to move to yet, another grind spot and was greeted with the same message as Esco.

    I had up to about 5 hours buffer time, 40ish hours exhaustion. Now I may be wrong, but after reading the 'help' page it says we can have up to 1020 hours of exhaustion stacked up and some 2kish buffer time, which I thought was what allowed one to keep pumping out Hyper Xp sessions as long as he/she had the stones and the time. So is there now also a limit to the sessions you can do per 24 hour cycle regardless of your buffer/ exhaustion levels?

    thats what i thought, but it turns out "BUFFER" starts the second you install the cube and so does exhaustion. If you keep hyper paused most of the time say, the buffer and exhaustion still keep going down :( So you REALLY don't get the full use... course your exhaustion runs out faster though.

    Actually, according to someone else in another thread, it is affected, but the display in the chat window is wrong. The actual XP gained is more than what is shown. I can't confirm though, didn't pay attention on the couple runs I did yesterday.

    As for the multiple sessions... hmm. Not sure. Maybe you started the first before the "new day" tick?

    I do know that it works in FC. Why? Because my friend were roughly the same exp% and he activated it in FC while I didn't. The result? I came close to leveling but not quite while he leveled and was also about 20% further in.

    I do have a question though. Is it possible to activate hyper EXP again after the buffer period has ended and you are in exhaustion period? Or do you have to wait for the exhaustion period to end?

    I have a theory that perhaps the max amount of buffer/exhaust time listed in the 'help' area is wrong, *or* you need an exhaust time of less than 24 hours to do another session. I haven't been able to try it myself, as I'm out currently =X but seeing as you were able to fire up another session at 23 hours remaining Esco, I think the latter of my theories may be the more correct of the two =O

    Yes, you can activate it while you're in exhaustion. For a good bit of the second run I did I was out of buffer time, and basically switching between Exhaustion and Hyper.
