Just curious if anyone knows when/how they reset. I heard you got 10 activations per day, but it doesn't reset at server reset, and its not 24 hours after the first reset (resets before that), so I'm kinda at a loss of how it works. Not a huge deal, I can keep checking, but I'm still curious if anyone knows :P

    s far as I have noticed, it seems to be 24 hours after you pause it after the 10th use. However, you can reset that useage counter to give you ten more by using another Hyper.
    Of course, there is no reason to do such a thing; ten uses per day is more than enough.

    For what I understand it's 10 pauses per set of hypers. If you don't pause that 10th time and let it run out, can't you equip new hypers and do more? That's what I thought. I dunno, not big on hypers.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    Unlike what Lenore said, it actually depends when you did your first activation.
    24 hours after that is when it resets, and you must relog to reset.

    They reset for me exactly at 6am (living in Germany, so that's midnight for the PW-server) and I don't have to relogg or anything. Didn't know it could be different for others till now o.O

    Really? Well I'll take your word for it. I guess most of the people I know activate it at 5PM server time b:laugh

    So I know its not 24 hours after the first activation, I know that sometimes I"ll start frosting at like 10pm server time and then the next day have all my activations back in the afternoon sometime.. so I'm guessing it is either a set time (still curious what it would be server time) or less than 20 hours.. like 16 hours or something like that. Guess I'll have to test it :(

    The hyper activations do reset at midnight server time. Also if you finish a set of hypers and still have 2 activation left, the next set of hypers you use will reset to 10.

    Any confusion or questions feel free to ask.

    You get 10 activations a day per set.

    Should your exhaustion time end during the day and you begin a new set, the activations will start over at 10.

    Should you use all 10 in one day and not start a new set, your activations will get to 10 again within 24 hrs of the first activation of the previous day. (unless like above you can start a new set)

    Easiest way to curb this is to always have hypers on so that the exhaustion time is constantly running and you never have to worry about the 10 activations. It also helps to know the timing of what you are hypering. In Frost you should not need more then a few activations.

    I rarely use hypers unless in 3rd or the RARE frost that I go on but I always have them so that I can instantly start a new set just in case.

    Well, since I do daily FC runs, I try to use all 10 right before server reset. At exactly midnight my hypers reset...


    Well, What a coincidence.

    If you use all 10 activations for the day you must wait 24 hours after your last one. If you use 9 or less activations it will reset 24 hours after your 1st one.

    If you use 9 activates and use up all your time you can immediately use 3-5 more hypers to get a new session. If you use 10 activations and use up all your time, you cannot start another session until 24 hours pass.

    It doesn't reset 24 hours after the first use. I've used my first hyper on the mobs right before Dreadindra, and my last (just wasting a couple to use them all) on groups of mobs up in the Harshlands (about 1.5 hours after the first use) where my hypers have reset in a minimum of two hours after my last. BUT! Sometimes it takes way longer than that, like last night for example, it's been about 14 hours since my last activation and I still don't have any b:surrender

    Used all 10 around 8 pm, got them back by 10:30
