    Well I remember someone told me that hyper doesn't stack with 2x event.


    Someone correct me if I'm wrong! :)

    Um, if you get 100 spirit during 2x, that means they normally give 50 spirit. This means that with x12, you'd get 650, or x13 the base.

    Because that's how x12 stacks with x2.

    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    Chapter 4: Hyper EXP Rate "Stacking"

    Now, this has been a hotly-debated topic for quite some time...probably ever since these little gems came into the game. How DOES the Hyper EXP Rate "stack" with other bonuses, like Training Esotericas or special "2x EXP" events? Well, our crack team of scientists (in other words, ME), have come up with a fairly accurate solution as to the mystery behind the Stacking Stones.

    You see, here on PWI, "rate stacking" is done on an additive basis, not a multiplicative one, which was what many of the players were complaining about early-on, when Hyper EXP was first introduced. They expected a rate similar to the following:


    12x (Hyper EXP) * 2x (Bonus Server Event) = 24x EXP!!!

    While that kind of stacking would've been a dream-come-true for this Wizard...alas, that is not the case, instead, the EXP stacks more like this...


    12x (Hyper EXP) + 2x (Bonus Server Event) = 14x EXP...!

    ...HOWEVER! This number is STILL inaccurate! There WAS an overly-complicated, hard-worked-on mathematical formula here before...but I guess a GM confirms, the true rate is 13x EXP for 12x Hyper EXP stacked with a 2x EXP event.

    In conclusion, if you want to get the proper "multiplied" rate for your EXP (if you REALLY take this game all number-crunching-serious...), subtract one from the Hyper EXP rate, then add in a "bonus" rate, if applicable.

    I got that from a sticky in the beginner section. So according to that thread you should have around 700 spirit for each mob. I know its huge deception for you. But no you wont get 24x.

    It does stack with 2x exp.
    Instead of 12x, you'd get 13x if I'm right.

    btw the reason it stacks like this...

    2x exp event: you get 1xEXP more from a mob you kill

    12x hypers: you get 11xEXP more from a mob you kill

    so if you kill a mob during 2x with 12x hypers you get:

    the regular EXP from the mob kill
    1xEXP more due to 2x event
    11xEXP more due to the 12x hypers

    so 1+1+11 = 13xEXP

    btw i have done the same mistake. q.q want 24xEXPb:cute
