    I'm guessing it will be something that requires a small stack (5-10) of shards for double or triple experience for one hour.

    Example:
    Reflection- 1 shard, 2k exp per minute, one hour

    Deep reflection- 10 shards, 4-6k exp per minute, one hour

    Yeah it will be 1 of those 2. Either use several (or a new item from weekly events like morai pk were you can only get a few of them a week) to get more xp or it will be a cash shop item to increase the xp.

    I won't be surprised if it will be a multiplier to the current exp rates the RoR gives.

    The main reason is because current Hyper exhaustion time affects the exp rate in the Realm, whereas Hyper experience itself won't. Friend found out the hard way overnight after throwing his character into the realm and not checking the rate first due to not expecting exhaustion to affect it.

    No, exhaustion has no effect. I've been in with and without exhaustion going and received the same amount of experience. I'm level 87 and get 2088 per minute.

    My concern at this point is that if it turns out to be 10 shards for triple exp for one hour, it's not going to be worth it in the long run. Yes it will save time, but you'd get a lot more experience just going in overnight.

    Deeper reflection, of course.

    When activated, one will enter the most serene state of mind. They will not only reflect on the outcome of their decisions and adventures, but also on how their actions have influenced those who are connected to them. Surely, such an elevated state will be of great benefit to both mind and body, earning years of experience withing minutes. However, it does have its risks.

    Those who undergo such deep reflection may happen upon regrets - decisions or actions who's results still haunt them. In encountering one, they are made to re-live the event, unable to change what has already occurred. Under normal circumstances, the meditator can overcome them, granting them a significant improvement in both their psychological and (via the magic of the Deep Reflective state), physical and spiritual power. There have been some, however, who have failed to do so. This experience likely creates a strain on the mind, as the meditator tries to reason with themselves that what they witness or experience has already occurred. Despite this, they can only observe, and not change the course of their actions or decisions - many describe it as lucid dreaming without having any control of themselves.

    In some cases, meditators are assaulted by multiple, weighted regrets. If they cannot overcome them before the strain becomes too great or they are forcibly removed from the Deep Reflective state, there is a possibility of psychological deteoriation. Some have been unable to motivate themselves to continue on with their adventure, others have been observed to display various psychological disorders (and in very few, their mental condition deteriorates into pure insanity).

    If someone knew and cared to share; they'd post it as their own thread. Threads asking if people know about just fill up with responses from people that don't.

    My guess? Some form of hyper meditation only accessible through a cash shop item.

    Are you sure? My friend stated to me that he went in with exhaustion, and when he checked in the morning his exp log was giving him 40 exp/min. And he's level 101.

    I'm 103 and I get about 2.8k per min.

    I agree with the popular opion of Deep Reflection being availbable through cash shop items in the future.

    Why?
    It's a PWE game.

    Only problem might be the price of that item in cash shop. But let's hope it will come cheap.

    It's F2P game. Same as any other F2P game with cash shop. There will be many, many more items in cash shop. Try any other F2P game and you'll find that cash shop is pretty much the same.

    I recall, though I don't have a link to it, that when Reflection was mentioned pre-patch, or in some post-discussion way that there would be a token-shop "better/more xp gained" shard to be introduced at a later time.

    It may have come up from someone mentioning that the current reflection shards give bad xp... which I actually disagree with, and am waiting with mild horror to find out just how much more awesome the new token shard will be <.<

    I bet it will come out with the Anniversary, or not too long afterwards... maybe after the anni event 2x ends. At least that's when I'd launch it... while we all suffer post 2x burn out and kinda relish long periods of blissful afk time b:surrender

    Doubt it...

    I finally put a new seeker i made in there (too cash in his shards) and get them outta his 'bag & safe slots') after he made level~48 in 4 days (No 'Glitching, Eso's or Hypers' BTW.' while only using questing as the way to level him') and he had built up a full (24~reflection shards) by then, and I still couldn't access the 'deep reflection' option even then; so after refreshing his hours to the full 24 he had accrued, I just decided to leave and see how many (shard hours) I can accrue for him, too get it too its maximum allowed time limit.....b:pleased


    I had wondered the same thing you did, but waited until I had accrued a full days worth of shards to see about it, and it still didn't allow it to be accessable, so the {deep option} has gotta be for something else...b:thanks

    It's F2P game. Same as any other F2P game with cash shop. There will be many, many more items in cash shop. Try any other F2P game and you'll find that cash shop is pretty much the same.

    One of the big things about PWI is that you can trade the cash shop items. A lot of f2p games don't allow that, containing some items that have stats completely unattainable without spending cash on them. Heck, one f2p game I played before PWE pretty much had me resorting to grinding for funds, then spending that on gambling and hoping for a lucky win. I would then spend the win on the same gamble and hopefully repeat the cycle. Ironically, I found some rookie who had a rare item, which I bought for pocket change and then sold for a hilariously high sum, which pretty much allowed me to just log in and gamble all day. "All day" here meaning until the forced cap of 30 attempts per day.

    But yes, PWE has a weird thing with pricing their items. The Ocean Orbs dropped from 75 Gold to 20 Gold, then rose up back up to 50 Gold, then 30 Gold and now 25 Gold. Packs started out at 1 Gold each, the lowest they've been is 22 Silver I believe. But yes, I would predict that the first sale price is going to be high. After all, it makes sense: you start by testing it with a deliberate overprice to see if it'd sell well enough. If not, you either decide that the item itself is unpopular or you lower the price on the next trial.

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

    Hello everyone, maybe I'm naive but my first thought when I saw "deep reflection" was a way to reflect while logged off.
