Would You Pay an Extra $10/Month to be Able to Keep the Witches Festival Increased XP Rate?

Mercutio

As a casual player AND an 'Altaholic' I am loving the increased XP during the Witch Festival. I am dreading it ending because progress will seem so... darn... slow afterward!

I would love to have the option to keep the increased XP rate. I got to thinking, and I would even rent a cauldron (or some other mechanic) on a monthly basis for $10 if I could.

Would this interest anyone else? Of course it should be optional since many players are at level cap, but for people like me it would really enhance the game and make it more fun.

What do you think?

Just buy xp scrolls instead. If you only play now and then, there's an alternative which costs money too.

WTF?

I do, have over 40 in the bank. I love that they stack with the WF's boost.

or buy/make psijiic ambrosia

This would be a tough one, because they are currently selling 10 hours of 50% xp for approximately $10 via crown xp scrolls.

Imma go with no

Solid_Metal

how about no?

I might get my two lowbies to 50 over the next week, but I don't need to be constantly leveling characters. I find playing on my level 50 toons more rewarding, anyway. And it's not like I need CP for another like, 2.5 patches assuming I drop the game entirely now.

If I really want XP I'll use the XP scrolls I've gotten from bundles or make myself some of that magical Psyjic Ambrosia.

Big is NO (insert 65 font)

Milvan

You can actually keep the xp increases...if you buy the experience scrolls

Tandor

No, in fact I've avoided playing ESO outside of doing a few skulls in order to miss the experience boost.

I voted "No! Bad idea!" but I don't necessarily think it's a bad idea, I just meant "No". I wouldn't do it.

Before the Witches Festival started I had 10 level 50s and 2 level 20s on my main account, and during the festival I've mostly been playing on level 50s. Despite the fact that most of my time hasn't been playing on my lowbies, one of those level 20s has already become a level 50, and the other one is most of the way there, and I expect to get to level 50 in about 1-2 more hours of playing on that character.

I'm already above CP cap by about 100 - I really don't need the extra XP. And I'm probably going to end up with 1 XP scroll left over that will basically be useless to me (I can't remember what bundle it was, but I got a handful of XP scrolls in a bundle almost a year ago).

I guess I could use an increased XP rate on my other accounts, but I usually only play the characters on those accounts for solo questing anyway, so I really don't care about whether they're max-level or not.

Is Psyjic Ambrosia expensive?

Kodrac

Not just no, but HELL NO!

lolo_01b16_ESO

I'm way above the cp cap and as long as the cp cap increase equals about 20-30min playtime per day I don't see any reason to increase my xp gain with money.
On my alts I'd even prefer to lower the xp gain, so I can spend more time with them before they reach lvl 50.

Cazzy

No for three reasons:
Lore breaking
Pay to...further your advancement (not fair for those who want to level fairly without paying)
Giving ZoS another way to milk money

Reverb

Your only "No" option is for saying its a bad idea. I don't think it's a bad idea for players new to the game, but being well above the CP cap, it's certainly not something I would pay for. So my answer is "No", but not for the reason listed in your poll.

kevlarto_ESO

No because next event will be out in a little over a month I believe.

Nestor

1. We have the ability to make or acquire Training Gear which gives almost the same boost to Exp alone that the festival offers.
2. We have the ability to make or buy experience boosters
3. We have Enlightenment
3. Once you reach the Cap, you don't really need to boost exp and it does not take all that long to reach the cap using methods 1 and 2 and 3
5. Even at the insane amounts of Exp I need to gain a champ point now (more than 780,000 exp for each champ point last time I check) still get at least a champ point a day not during the festival, and not using Training gear or exp boosters.

Mercutio

I appreciate the feedback, guys and gals. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Personally I see double XP as something they give us for special occasions like holiday events and the anniversary event. If we always had a chance to get double XP, it'd make that a bit of a stale thing to me and they'd have to find something to replace it with for those events.

If you are a casual player, then you are here for the story and should not rush through the game but enjoy it at your own pace or else you will get to the endgame and rquit because it's not meant for casuals ... this is if you are a casual player.

ArchMikem

Once you've leveled two or three characters, the only thing that remains of interest is playing the end game with your Level 50s. And I've leveled six...

driosketch

There's another holiday event in a couple months.

JamieAubrey

This is pay 2 win so NO

EleonoraCrendraven

Just no. After Lvl 50 everything you do with every character you have above 50 adds to your CP. That's more than enough.
ESO - for me- is not about getting as fast as possible to max CP but it is about having fun. And you can have fun regardless of your Lvl/CP. So NO, don't add such a thing.

KingYogi415

Nothing is ever good enough for some people

vyndral13preub18_ESO

I wouldnt. But i dont see why someone else shouldnt if they want to.

Nickernator

Don't you already get +10% increased experience for being an ESO+ member? And I don't think it would be an useful feature to pay for it every month, you only level once. And especially with the scaling now, levels don't matter once you get +160CP
