Crafting with enlightenment bonus question......

Gracous

Set up:
Doing master writs (all 7 types (alchemy, enchanting, blacksmithing and so on))
Enlightened
150% xp scroll
Event xp bonus

How is the XP calculated when you turn in the writs?
Is the enlightenment and the bonus xp calculated on the first writ you turn in or is calculated on all the writs or is it calculated on percentages (ie enlightenment only covers the first 10% of the xp gained)?

I'm trying to find the best way to max Xp when i do writs.

freespirit

Each writ you hand in will use a portion of your available enlightenment, until it has all been used.

Max enlightenment you can have available is 12 days worth which gives 4,800,000 xp(400,000 per day) that is earned at an increased rate.

I have a secondary account that is below 1,000 cp and I try save up my enlightement to do a load of writs when I know a double xp event is coming..... I love seeing those cp rack up!!

On my main account which is at nearly 2,500 cp, even with full enlightenment and other xp bonuses the cp gain is depressingly low and slow! The higher your cp level the more each cp costs. 😕

Event and scroll bonus add together (along with ESO+ and/or Ring of Mara, if applicable).

Enlightenment is a 4x multiplier on the result, although as freespirit pointed out, it can run out. It can even do so midway through a writ.

You say you’re doing those 7 writs with event and scroll bonuses (100% event + 150% scroll for a total of +250% to the base value).

Are you level 50 on that character?

If so, the base xp value for each master writ is 7485 (standard quest reward) multiplied by 2.25 (all master writs now get the “very hard” multiplier), or 16841.25, rounded down to 16,841.

Your two bonuses should bring that to 58,943 or 58,944 (depending on rounding) per master writ without accounting for enlightenment.

Let’s say you had 400k worth of enlightenment.

The first master writ turned in would give you 58,943 x4 = 235,772 (likely a hair off due to rounding). All of it would benefit from enlightenment, leaving you with 164,228 enlightenment until your next reset.

The second master writ would finish using up your enlightenment but would still give you the rest of the master writ’s xp without the 4x multiplier:

With 164,228 enlightenment left, 41,057 of the 58,943 from the second master writ would be enlightened. (41,057 x4 = 164,228) The remaining 17,886 xp from the master writ would be unenlightened but would still benefit from the event and scroll bonuses as long as those have not run out.

The third through seventh writs would not be enlightened, unless you held them until you got enlightenment again.

"Fun" fact: you never run out of enlightenment as CP3600.

I'm currently 3493 CP.
I want to make a serious push for 3600 CP in the new life festival.
I normally get about 542K xp for the 7 writs and 100% XP boost + enlightenment
This event I'm getting 744K XP with 7 writs + enlightenment + 150% XP pot + witch's festival writ (blue) + event bonus
Hopefully i will get to 3600 shortly after Christmas!

Thank you for all your responses and explanations. It really helped!
