    I also don't care about this Hyper stacking problem. =3 I tend to just wait until a whole session, Hyper, Buffer and Exhaustion is expired before I start another.

    My problem is that ALL of my timers are at 0:0 (and have been at zero for over a week now) and I still can't activate any Hyper Stones.

    Hm...I guess all I can suggest is two things.

    1) Do you have the necessary amount of Hyper EXP stones in your inventory?

    2) If you answered yes to 1...well, sheesh, I dunno, really. All I can suggest is sending a ticket in with a good screenshot identifying the problem.

    Either way, you kids these days and your Hyper EXP...back in MY day, we Zhen'd for our chunks of EXP...and gold was 100k a pop...ahh...those were the days...

    b:pleased

    Yeah, it's me. Don't read to much into it, though; I'm only here for myself now, killin' time and chillin' when need-be. So sue me. Tch...

    I played back during those days.

    When there was no BH, when miji'ing was the way to go during FC runs and daily grinding, when Just Questing was one of the best ways to get quick EXP.

    I miss those days....but anyway....the main problem at hand:

    I have a ton of stones I can't use now because of this "glitch". I could send em all to an ALT, but that would defeat my purpose of wanting to hit 99 and wear the gear I've wanted to since I started playing 1 year ago.

    That's "Justice Questing" for those of you who just saw the typo

    It's ok hehe. I've tried many things like reinstalling the game, running patches, buying more stones (which are now on my ALTs) and random other things.

    I just want a DEV or GM to come on here and tell us that the problem is going to be fixed and we'll all be happy again b:thanksb:victory

    Hey guys, bad news; Basically the China Devs need to check this on their version, and for technical reasons they won't able to do it until the end of this month.


    For now, the best we can do is ask you to submit tickets with detailed explanations of the Hyper EXP issues you're facing. Please submit those tickets here if you have not done so already:

    At the end of the month I'll have another update for y'all.


    Thanks!

    The aim of the stones being that people who don't get to play 24/7 can use stones to keep up with those who do.

    How it actually works... no idea. No particular drive to find out either.

    How it actually works: level 90 cash shoppers last week are level 102 cash shoppers this week. b:lipcurl

    Well at least they will take notice of it b:thanks

    Its hard to explain the problem, Nyvia has been having this problem for 2weeks straight and cant start a new one?

    Whereas I can start a new one but need to wait till 12 am :| lol
    No idea why it started affecting me, but it never used to.

    I thought the system was actually explained clear enough

    each session si a multiple of 24hrs

    you can start multiple session at once (up to 4 if memory serves)

    before you can start a new one , you need to wait for all the timers of the session to be off.

    one session start as soon as you click activate. never click activate, untill you start bashing, or the buffer time or the Hyper time will be depleted.


    Once your Hyper is depleted, if you still have time in the buffer, you can xp at normal rate, otherwise, you just get 10% exp ...

    - Exhaustion time is decounted when you are offline.
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    - Exhaustion time is decounted when you are offline.

    Even with everything at 0:00 some people cant start a new one.
    Example

    17/03/10 - Start hyper and stop at 0:03 Hyper EXP.
    19/03/10 - Have 3minutes left everything else is at 0:00, I use the remaining hyper exp time and cant start a new one.

    ^ Sooooo annoying.

    20/03/10 - Start hyoer exp, I use all of it on this day.
    20/03/10 - Try to start another hyper exp session on the day, I cant because I get the same messege < never used to happen.

    I have had this "bug" occur to me more than once. After multiple trials and recording times, I have come to the conclusion that the hyper exp "clock" does not coincide with the server's "clock".

    Server resets everyday at 12:00 AM, so naturally you would assume that the hyper exp would as well. However, this does not seem to be the case.

    Today, I had my hyper time and buffer time depleted from the day prior. So, I tried to restart a hyper session at 3:59 PM server time. It gave me that annoying error message about how I couldn't start another hyper session yadayada. Right when my desktop clock hit 4:00 PM server time, SHAZAM, it worked.


    Conclusion: Hyper "days" are reseted at 4:00 PM servertime, NOT 24 hr times NOR server resets (explaining how we can accumalte buffer and exhaustion time)


    p.s. : nothing is concrete but this seemed to hold true everytime I did hyper sessions on back to back days.


    Uh, after testing it out myself...this person's theory here seems to hold true. Basically, I activated once before 4 pm server time (it was close to 3 pm) and after an hour of grinding, when it was past 4pm, I was able to activate another one, back to back. Tried for #3, and it didnt work. The next day tried right before 4 pm and got that error message, but right when it hit 4 pm, it worked again for me >.>

    Yep, so a pretty good-sized patch/content update will be applied in the very near future which should hopefully resolve the issue. If the issue remains, we'll keep on it til it's fixed.

    Thanks again for your patience :)

    Yea I still get it,

    does it work so you can only do once per day?


    if I use full 1 hr within say.. 5hrs then try to start a new one I cant.
    Also if I use hyper exp for 30mins, 24hrs later I use remainder 30mins I get the msg and cant start a new one.
    Is it meant to work like that?
