This is bull ****.

I have been doing FCC during the entire 2X event. I have been doing it on multiple toons as well. I even got one to lvl 100.

I have just noticed something however.

On my lvl 93 barb I get the same amount of exp per mob on pulls and in the EXP room during normal exp time than I did when it was 2X.

I am running 12X hypers with a silk worm.

What is going on here.

By my calculator, if a mob gives 500 exp, with 12X hypers and a silk worm running, I should be getting 9k EXP.

At maximum I am pulling down 5k. And that is with lvl 99s in squad and my barb is only lvl 93, so they should be taking a chunk out too, but I know it isn't that much.

See, I was getting the same amount I am getting now during 2X, but at the time I didn't realize there was something wrong because I had not done FCC prior to 2X. Now that I have a sample to compare to of both conditions, I am more confused than ever before, maybe even a little angry too, as the math does not make any sense.

By all calculations a boss that gives 5k EXP should cough up 60k exp with 12X hypers running, and as we all know this is most definitely NOT the case.

Is the EXP gained for each mob capped at "X" amount? No matter what conditions are being applied?

So can any one clue me in here, before I send in a ticket.

    during 2x when running hypers your exp is actually x13. using a silk worm your exp is x12.5. also an easier way to figure out how much exp you actually are getting is to multiply your spirit by 5. this will tell you how much exp per mob/boss you are actually getting since the exp amounts in text are glitched.

    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.

    Esco beat me to it.

    If you're getting 600 XP during 2x, for example, when running 12x on hypers you'd be getting 3900 XP (original XP would be 300 so x13 would be 3900).

    hypers dont work right for example fragrence 24k exp no hyper if you hyper u get 32k thats not 12x

    also they dont stack with silks you get the same exp yes i tested this many many many times

    finally 2x event exp also doesnt stack with silk or hypers

    test me if you doubt

    stick to hypering bigroom pull + heads and dragons + ladys ONLY min wastage anything else in FF is wasted activation

    btw anyone able to grind on nightscreen island (lower levels) dont waste going to FF hyper here is better and constant exp + repair bill + stock spend + coins gained i leveled this seeker up there as quick as people where in FF (not power level fails obviously)

    So the spirit is at least accurate then? And EXP is always a static 5 times the amount of spiritgained?(never noticed this apparently)

    So apparently I am getting what I am supposed to be getting, it just doesn't appear that way.....

    LOL, serves me right for assuming PWE actually had these little things ironed out.

    Thank you for clearing that up Escorian.
