Cake Bonus Does Not Stack with Psijic Pots

Aletheion

It appears that these are not stacking. Are they supposed to?

Yes, they're supposed to. Yes, they don't work as they said. Yes, I'm not surprised.

When this one does a Covertess Countess quest without any boosts this one gets about 8,000 xp. With shiny pink fizzy she gets about 11,000. With cake and fizzy she got, this morning, about 14,000.

So it is doing something for this one.

If the maths is right this one cannot tell. A head for numbers is not a blessing Jone and Jode granted upon the furry head of this one.

Hi Santie,

Did you drink the drink then eat the cake, or eat the cake then drink the drink?

Perhaps there is a bug and the order you apply them makes a difference.

Yours with... cake-in-hands and no claws.

Khajiit first ate the cake, then took the pink fizzy to wash it down.

This one did notice a visual bug in that after eating the cake Santies level changed to zero but this returned to normal once I handed in a quest and got some more xp.

Can't wait to resume business tonight - this one thinks the icing on that cake may contain very delicious addictive narcotics!

I would not be surprised. I am just giving my own opinion on this but I do not think the game's exp bonus can exceed 100%

Because most people never exceed 70% exp boost...

10% from ESO Plus
50% from Scroll or Psyjiic Ambrosia (scroll lasts for 2 hours so imo it's better ( sad that it costs actual money but meh )
10% from ring of Mara (optional)

I find the 60% to be sufficient ( no need for a ring of mara )

Once again this is just my opinion OP

You're not seeing the right numbers. With cake and pink fizzy you should have 150% bonus. That's means you get base 8000 exp. your cake alone should make that 16000 add the pink fizzy and you should get 20000 total.

YES, she SHOULD, key word should. It is clearly not working as ZoS said it would.

In verrant moss I get (close but not EXACT) 440 XP per zombie I kill BASE XP, with a scroll active I get 660 (this is the correct 50% of base) with the cake now also on top I only get 840, which seems like ANOTHER 50% of the base on top of my scroll.

I SHOULD be getting 100% more of my 660 which would be some 1320, or at the least +100% of the BASE XP which would be my 660 + 440 being 1100XP per kill (but lets not do that, ZOS is should be 1320 as you said it would STACK!

What I think is happening, it is somehow being negated/neutralized with the scroll 50% and both together are just giving you 100%

the question of whether or not they should stack in succession. I.E Scroll + 50% then cake 100% of that NEW value, or they should just add from base XP is debatable. either way, its not working right as is now
