Okay I got enlightenment after switching zone it did go away. Here a video as words seem to be not clear enough LoL.
Some people already have close to 85 CP with nonston Enl. on, just saying.
@ZOS_GinaBruno
Tested this the last two days. Logged into 8 characters to prime the system right after I finished the update. Only my main is VR. Been off and on all my chacters since then. Got enlightenment last night. Immediately logged off, loaded a non vet, then logged back into my main. I still had enlightenment.

@ZOS_GinaBruno
There are players near 90 CS already, I know two however they got there grinding not with nonstop Enl, unless you show me a case I'm calling BS/exaggeration on you. The reason I know you are full of it is because if someone had nonstop Enl, by now they'd be at least around 150+ to 200 CS points.
You said your enlightenment eventually ended, but the other three people now in this thread reporting extra enlightenment did not say whether or not theirs ever ended.Well if anyone actually does have it they sure aren't going to come in here and tell everyone about it. They're going to rake in points til their fingers bleed for as long as it lasts (or until they fall over).It would seem that in at least some cases:
If you lose enlightenment you lose all XP gained from it as well as CPs earned.
In other cases:
Some people are getting perpetual enlightenment.
Glad you are looking into it but I agree with others that @ZoS should also think about how to reset or balance it if this goes on for a week +
Enlightenment is 400% bonus right? A gap like this over time for those that have versus not (due to bugs) is just plain nasty.
I havent seen or heard any real proof that anyone has 'perpetual enlightenment' yet. I had ~3.5 CP worth of enlightenment this morning. I'd need hard proof of it before I believed anyone has unlimited enlightenment, otherwise it sounds like people are trolling or fear mongering.
Indeed, that is possible. The "rollback" phenomenon is definitely happening though.
Oh for sure, there are definitely some bugs negatively affecting some people's enlightenment, I just dont believe that anyone has perma-enlightmentment based solely on forum rumor
I guess we just have to wait for ZOS to take a look and sort it out. However long that takes.
Edit: I was wrong. Just saw the post right above mine. Yay for honesty.

Whatever the number extra you guys are getting - 2, 3.5, 4, 8, more - it is a huge exploit even though it's accidental on your part, and it's very disappointing to those of us who are getting none at all. I don't even want to play my veterans until this is resolved honestly.

I'd honestly take claims of never ending enlightenment with a grain of salt at the moment. Its probably far more likely that players either don't understand the system yet/misinterpreting it or aren't paying attention to when they are or are not enlightened. I do think given my experiences and others in this thread that some players might not be getting their enlightenment as they should as well as a display bug showing you "fake" enlightenment (which may also contribute to why players think they are getting more than expected).
Its not like some clown with unlimited enlightenment could really hide it, ZOS likely has estimates on what reasonable grinding should result in (even exaggerated) someone who has unlimited ultimate if you think about it when grinding should have extra hundred points by now if not more, that would stick out like a sore thumb.

Sadly, it is happening. A member of one of the guilds I am in has just breached 92 CP, Thats right we will never catch up and the game is ATM never going to be balanced. Im at 71.5 CP BTW never got enlightenment.
@ZOS_GinaBruno I did an hour of AoE grinding with a partner last night.
During this time I received ~1.5 million experience and was fully enlightened for the first 1.4 Million. My partner didn't receive any and got only 325K or so.
I got 4 champion points (74 now) and she only got 1 (71).
How is the disparity between two players even possible this early into the system?
Update:
Got the enlightend buff back while standing around in stormhaven...than i have ported to upper craiglorn und lost it again (while porting)
Update2:
Got the enlightened buff back again while standing around in rawl'kha, logt on my alt (vr5 nb) and lost it again (while logging)

Thats through legitimate grind, there are 2 in my guild in the 90s at the moment through just grinding a couple champion counts an hour. Do the math. If they had unlimited enlightenment they would be in high 100's-200's at least by now. You're overreacting to something that doesn't exist.
That isn't proof, I've provided adequate evidence already. Think about it logically. With enlightenment you'd be gaining through reasonable grind somewhere close to 5-10 CS an hour. 90s isn't through broken enlightenment its through grind, if someone has a SS of someone in the 100s+ post that and then we might have reason to be concerned.

Not exactly, you really need to take a look at what we know about CP gains it's something like:
1. ZOS stated that it should take ~ four (4) hrs to gain one (1) CP normally.
2. Enlightened that it should take ~ one (1) hr to gain one (1) CP.
3. After using up your enlightenment (capped at ~4CPs worth of XP) you go back to the regular rate of gain.
4. The CS has been available for ~fourty eight (48) hrs.
Therefore, if your played for 24 hours straight in a day at the regular rate of CP gain you could make:
24hrs*(.25 CPs/hr) = 6 CPs/day
But your first 4 CPs are gained during enlightenment at 1 CP/hour, therefore your first 4 hours of playing would net you 4 CPs so in the first 48 hours available to play you'd have:
1st 4 hours = 4 CPs
next 20 hours = 5 CPs
next day = 6 CPs
Total = 15 CPs
Starting with 70 CPs means no player should have more than ~ 85 CPs and if they do it follows that enlightenment is lasting longer than it should. Weather that enlightenment is indefinite or not is a moot point. Either way it's lasting longer than it should. With that said no one plays for 24 hours straight for 2 days straight, they have to sleep and eat or whatever so theoretically this should be upper limit of one could of achieved in the last 2 days. I did the math see

Nope not over reacting, its perma 'E' the drug that keeps on kicking. They have verified it and submitted bug tickets about it. Thus, grinding has been nurfed to the ground. I know, I tried it. Used to solo spellscar like cake on a NB Vamp. If players can pull that far away from the pack, getting CP then why do we even have the system? It creates a massive rift in this game to the point where, "If you don't have x amount of CP GTFO." Killing the ESO ideals of everyone playing what they want in this game. Not to mention the PVP being terribly unbalanced to the point where a new player can't even kill someone and dies repeatedly, regardless of skill. Hell just make it where you get one CP per day, but no. I enjoy the fact that I can progress my character via the CP System. Sadly, at the moment it is not working for me and many others, while some are enjoying an endless stream of 'E'. Grinding sucks, period; no if's, and's, or but's. I used to get 400+ exp from a mob at VR14 in spellscar, I now get 137xp. basically they have been gaining experience at an 'E' state since they are experiencing a "normal" 1.5.8 grind. Thus, they have perma 'E' even though it might not say it. The little blue pill known as 'E' is fritzing out in this game and need to be put down.

You are making assumptions on numbers they gave for the "average" player. The average player could get to 85 and no more, but in reality the grinders who maximize are making several CP every hour without enlightenment which is why I know being in the 90s is very doable. Your math is spot on with the average player though. Zos specifically stated they want 100k xp an hour for your average player thus equating to the numbers you extracted, which means players will be much faster and much slower depending on a number of different things.
You said your enlightenment eventually ended, but the other three people now in this thread reporting extra enlightenment did not say whether or not theirs ever ended.Well if anyone actually does have it they sure aren't going to come in here and tell everyone about it. They're going to rake in points til their fingers bleed for as long as it lasts (or until they fall over).It would seem that in at least some cases:
If you lose enlightenment you lose all XP gained from it as well as CPs earned.
In other cases:
Some people are getting perpetual enlightenment.
Glad you are looking into it but I agree with others that @ZoS should also think about how to reset or balance it if this goes on for a week +
Enlightenment is 400% bonus right? A gap like this over time for those that have versus not (due to bugs) is just plain nasty.
I havent seen or heard any real proof that anyone has 'perpetual enlightenment' yet. I had ~3.5 CP worth of enlightenment this morning. I'd need hard proof of it before I believed anyone has unlimited enlightenment, otherwise it sounds like people are trolling or fear mongering.
Indeed, that is possible. The "rollback" phenomenon is definitely happening though.
Oh for sure, there are definitely some bugs negatively affecting some people's enlightenment, I just dont believe that anyone has perma-enlightmentment based solely on forum rumor
I guess we just have to wait for ZOS to take a look and sort it out. However long that takes.
Edit: I was wrong. Just saw the post right above mine. Yay for honesty.
Like i said earlier, I had about 3.5 CP worth of enlightenment when i logged on this morning, but it definitely wasn't indefinite.
Whatever the number extra you guys are getting - 2, 3.5, 4, 8, more - it is a huge exploit even though it's accidental on your part, and it's very disappointing to those of us who are getting none at all. I don't even want to play my veterans until this is resolved honestly.
I'd honestly take claims of never ending enlightenment with a grain of salt at the moment. Its probably far more likely that players either don't understand the system yet/misinterpreting it or aren't paying attention to when they are or are not enlightened. I do think given my experiences and others in this thread that some players might not be getting their enlightenment as they should as well as a display bug showing you "fake" enlightenment (which may also contribute to why players think they are getting more than expected).
Its not like some clown with unlimited enlightenment could really hide it, ZOS likely has estimates on what reasonable grinding should result in (even exaggerated) someone who has unlimited ultimate if you think about it when grinding should have extra hundred points by now if not more, that would stick out like a sore thumb.
Sadly, it is happening. A member of one of the guilds I am in has just breached 92 CP, Thats right we will never catch up and the game is ATM never going to be balanced. Im at 71.5 CP BTW never got enlightenment.
Thats through legitimate grind, there are 2 in my guild in the 90s at the moment through just grinding a couple champion counts an hour. Do the math. If they had unlimited enlightenment they would be in high 100's-200's at least by now. You're overreacting to something that doesn't exist.
That isn't proof, I've provided adequate evidence already. Think about it logically. With enlightenment you'd be gaining through reasonable grind somewhere close to 5-10 CS an hour. 90s isn't through broken enlightenment its through grind, if someone has a SS of someone in the 100s+ post that and then we might have reason to be concerned.
Nope not over reacting, its perma 'E' the drug that keeps on kicking. They have verified it and submitted bug tickets about it. Thus, grinding has been nurfed to the ground. I know, I tried it. Used to solo spellscar like cake on a NB Vamp. If players can pull that far away from the pack, getting CP then why do we even have the system? It creates a massive rift in this game to the point where, "If you don't have x amount of CP GTFO." Killing the ESO ideals of everyone playing what they want in this game. Not to mention the PVP being terribly unbalanced to the point where a new player can't even kill someone and dies repeatedly, regardless of skill. Hell just make it where you get one CP per day, but no. I enjoy the fact that I can progress my character via the CP System. Sadly, at the moment it is not working for me and many others, while some are enjoying an endless stream of 'E'. Grinding sucks, period; no if's, and's, or but's. I used to get 400+ exp from a mob at VR14 in spellscar, I now get 137xp. basically they have been gaining experience at an 'E' state since they are experiencing a "normal" 1.5.8 grind. Thus, they have perma 'E' even though it might not say it. The little blue pill known as 'E' is fritzing out in this game and need to be put down.
They nerfed that grind spot, it is well known/documented. I still see no real proof here. Screw my optimism as another called it, but I prefer to call it if you're going to claim something then back it up. I am afraid you're going to have ZOS thinking there is one bug when there is another and wasting time. The only proof I've seen is players not getting their deserved enlightenment. THAT needs to be fixed immediately because that is unfair to those players. As I said before it should be a cakewalk for ZOS to identify if there are players gaming unlimited Enlightenment somehow. 90s of CP is completely within the realm of possibility.

It's not an 'exploit' that enlightenment is working as intended for some people and not for you.
Some trolls in this thread need to stop trying to terrorize people by talking about their 'friends' who have unlimited enlightenment and are 'grinding like madmen' in a 'secret location' and already have 'hundreds' of CP. I'm calling *** on all that right now. Show us proof. You don't because you don't have any.
Besides, you don't need enlightenment to easily be over 100 CP by now, 1.6 has been up and running for 48 hours. We were into vet ranks 48 hours after release, and it was a LOT harder to level back then.
I don't know that any users can provide the proof you are asking for because only ZOS will have reliable information.You said your enlightenment eventually ended, but the other three people now in this thread reporting extra enlightenment did not say whether or not theirs ever ended.Well if anyone actually does have it they sure aren't going to come in here and tell everyone about it.
