    Thanks for sharing these commands!

    I noticed my add-on was saying I had 3x multiplier yesterday - isn't it supposed to be 4x?
    Bonus multiplier: x + yx, where y could be 3 or zero. Reminds me of shell programming and taxes. Must have been pretty lazy with initializing the y to wind up with that.

    While the 1CP worth of Enlightenment per day seems to work, any news on reactivaing lost Enlightenment from the start for those of us that didn't get any at all? I'm missing at least 11CP worth of Enlightenment when we go by the old rule and while those wouldn't be even close to what others got, it's at least a chance at catching up.

    With not having gained any Enlightenment till Sunday and the new 1CP Enlightenment per day rule I feel extra punished for suffering through this bug. Since this generally decreased my play-time to just earn 1CP, level Legerdemain (at 6 already, so that won't last long) and managing sales and goods, I'd like to see that changed back to 4CP again. Thanks to never being able to catch up, the few minutes of rewarding gameplay and the de-motivating drop to 25% progression rate, this has had a big negative impact on my overall enjoyment of the game.

    Just wanted to let everyone know that we are currently testing fixes for all issues called out last week, which included the following:
    • Your enlightened state appears to vanish after using a wayshrine.
    • You will receive a notification that you’ve earned a Champion Point, but are never actually able to use it.
    • The timer for enlightenment will sometimes reset when loading in with a Veteran Ranked character.
    • The enlightened bonus value doesn’t appear in the tooltip. This is actually working as designed, but are working on making this clearer to avoid confusion.

    I have been logged off for 15 hours +, Sleep and work, come back to the game and still do not have enlightened. When I do play I get it, maybe, and then I spend a few hours of getting enlightened XP and gain a point; but NOPE when I zone or do anything my point is gone, no enlightened and my bar is maybe 1/5th full.

    Don't do that if you don't have to.
    Ride into the nearest city instead. Park in the vet zone you need to get XP from. Once you have this zoning erases E attribute on your character, it is hard to shake off.

    I just got the disappearing Enlightenment on re-zone myself, so the bug is definitely still there. Ticketed it.

    Really, really hate the idea of the enlightenment bugs persisting through another weekend of play. By the time this gets fixed, my guildmates will have long left me behind in the dust. I have no hope of ever being able to catch up. On the bright side, I have all of my game time for picking pockets and slaughtering innocents.

    Okay... apparently the enlightenment I got was "false" and the real enlightenment is awarded later in the day; that later enlightenment stuck with me through rezoning. Either way, there's some buggy stuff happening.

    The "false" enlightenment was earned at 11:30EDT.

    so my enlightenment finally showed up and worked... or so I thought

    gained xp just fine, got a champ point.....

    then it went to mage, got enough xp... no point
    then it went to warrior, got enough xp.... no point
    now im on thief...
    and im assuming since the system keeps each type of cp even <mage/warrior/thief> ill have to get enough xp to finish off thief, then mage and HOPE It actually works right this time?

    so gain enough xp for 4 CP to gain just the first point.... if it works the second time around.....


    edit: yup, gained thief, no CP gained... so back to mage and hope it works

    all the same. today earned 3 CP levels but gain no point. after relog was rolled back 3 lvls back :( no points, no fun, just wasted time...

    What I learned about enlighenment is that you get some amount of it per veteran character once a day. I made a slash command (/xp) in this addon to see how much enlightenment I have. I get rough 90k enlightenment a day, if I don't spend it it accumulates, highest pool I had was 1.1 mil.

    we have account wide pool of enligthenment but problem is every day pool gets activated at the same time when specific character 1st time logged on into game with update 6, so there are lot of confusion when 1 character is enlightened but you switch to another and enlightnment 'vanishes' and appears only on time of day that char was logged on 1st time.

    short story even shorter - make enlightenment account wide for all characters at the same time ! this will save lot of confusion for other things xD

    According to ZOS, you should receive 400k of enlightenment a day that accumulates to a maximum of 1,200,000, or three days worth. Mine doesn't accumulate, it disappears if not used. So does the extra xp I earned while enlightened.

    The more vets you have the more enlightenment you get?

    Nope, 400k per day per account. All of your toons get a Champion Point when you earn one on any character, but they share the 400k enlightnement.

    Getting annoying, just lost 200k xp and my enlightenment for logging out for dinner break.
    Wish they would fix this bugged system.

    Its not true in my case, I can switch to any of my vet characters and take benefit of enlighenment pool as long as I still have any available, I regularily check how much pool I still have and make sure I still have some before going to get some xp. any progress I've made with either of my characters stays as I left them, any closed champion ranks are persistent across all vet characters, IE if I gained one rank with one charater and one rank with another I will get 2 ranks on third character and when I swithch to first and second I still have 1 more rank available to spend. So far my conren is just how fast we can progress in this system not how it works and not what it grants.

    So, after Enlightenment finally got fixed for me and worked for a few day.....now it's bugged again.

    My enlightenment just ended prematurely and my last 5 hours of CP gains were rolled back. I had am back to half the CP I had been awarded 2 hours ago.

    It went from "you will gain xp at an advanced rate into the next level" to....no enlightenment and the loss of a CP.


    Ugh, head/wall

    As a returning player just at V2 the Enlightenment functionality is killing off the desire to play for me. For most games with similar enlightenment systems most of the xp comes from killing mobs. This means that when the enlightenment bonus runs out xp may be slower but nothing is 'lost'. When levelling in ESO most of the xp comes from quests and discovery, which are one-time rewards. As soon as enlightenment runs out continuing to play and do those quests results in a net loss of CPs. I only really get the chance to play at the weekends, so post enlightenment I feel like I am crippling myself if I quest or explore for more than 2 hours a week - about the point when my Enlightenment ceases and I need 3 days to recharge.

    The concept of Enlightenment is fine and works OK in a number of other games, but (grind groups aside) it does not sit well with ESO's quest/ exploration based xp model. Seeking to return to the game I find that I get bonuses for not playing...

    I'm not actually sure what solution would work, only that the mechanics of Enlightenment don't seem to sit well with the game's core xp model.

    this whole system is utterly messed up. its a farce ive got a vet 12 toon who was my main but since he did every single quest long before i stopped playing its now completely useless to log him in to play cos i can't do any quests (there are none)
    dungeons ,delves, craglorn, pvp all give next to nothing.

    so hes parked , stuck at v12
    i had another vet 12. but he had lots of quests left cos i just stuck to cadwells silver/gold, i went back and done all the quests i missed with him, and got him to vet 14. got some cp cos i was handing quests in.
    but since hes now done all the quests he,s now parked

    so now ive got to play a third toon and do all the same quests a third time if i wasnt to actually get some decent xp. how the hell is that a system????
    the best way to get cp is stop playing a toon and roll another soon as you run out of quests...

    thats if the game decides to actually give you enlightenment and not just take it away if you dare to zone or chanfge toons....

    this is a joke. i waited 2 hours for enlightened to arrive today, then when it does i log the only toon who actually has quests so i can get a couple of cp and it just dissapears....i'm so glad i came back to ESO... THIS WHOLE SYSTEM IS A MESS,

    I only get enlightment after logging in. As soon as I use a wayshrine, port to a buddy or travel directly to a dungeon the enlightment is gone. So pretty much any location where I can get some xp is made pretty useless by this. It's not always happening, but close to it. To add insult to damage, after porting back to, say, Rawl'Kha or Grathwood to do some trading or crafting the einlightment returns.

    This is really annoying and I sincerely hope Zeni will fix this asap.

    The confusion about enlightenment is probably caused by the lack of the enlightenment pool display anywhere in the default UI. For that reason I made additional command in this add-on to see the available enlightenment. I never ran into any issues since update 6 kicked in with CP system.
