Is this cake exp working Properly?

leepalmer95

Before without the cake i could get around 75%- 1 level with grinding in the IC sewers, (this is with an exp pot)

Now even with the cake i still get the same amount.

Anyone else?

The cake bonus doesn't work in and pvp area. It says so when you try to use it in such a zone. And also, if you die you loose the bonus until you eat more.

... Is there a reason for this bias? Or just more proof zos doesn't like Pvp?

I have no idea, it seems a bit ridicukous if you ask me. But that just seems to e how it is. It just means that anyone who hasn't bought Orsinium is earning significantly less XP that is that have it. I bet rkindakeft has never been so busy.

No the XP Bonus works. Both the Cake and any Psijic/Scroll.

The issue is that if you die, the buff is removed. Since you're in Cyrodiil you can't reapply the buff because it's a Memento. You'd have to leave Cyrodiil, activate the Memento and get the buff, then return to Cyrodiil.

You sure? Maybe it's a ps4 issue then because it wasn't gaining any exp faster.

I never died once in the sewers for the hour i was actually in there. There was no interruptions either.

Does anyone know if the buff applies to crafting inspiration gains?

AP and XP are different things. This is an XP boost, not an AP boost.

Cake + Scroll isn't stacking properly. I popped just cake and killed a mob and got the 100% bonus. I popped a scroll right after and killed the same mob and got just the 100% bonus. Someone on reddit saw the same and someone commented that ambrosia works properly with cake but not the crown store scroll.

I can confirm that the XP scrolls do not work with the XP cake... practically theft, advertising they'd work together, XP scrolls being consumed yet they do not work...
