Dolmen XP changed?

babedenny

As of yesterday, I was averaging 30k-50k XP on Dolmens (with the Crown Store XP bonus). Today, it's down to about 10k. Did something change?

30k-50k XP must be from your first time beat this Dark anchor.

Do you have enlightenment (increased CP gain)?

This was after about the 30th time on that anchor, in one day.

Edit: 30th anchor in one day, but probably 10th time for that one. Cycling through the three anchors in Auridon.

Good question. Not sure. Don't recall seeing it when I logged in today.

From looking at how enlightenment works, it appears to change how many XP points are required to earn 1CP. Don't see anything about a change to the amount of XP earned though.

It would almost have to be enlightening.

It was based on 1 CP when 1 CP cost 400k exp, CP cost has drastically changed based on your current amount. The enlightenment is still based on 400k exp.

I'll make sure to remember the next time I have enlightenment to see if the XP from the Dolmens jumps back up.

babedenny

It is the enlightenment buff. Confirmed. Thanks.

babedenny

Ok, the buff lasted for about 3 Dolmens, around 31k XP (with Crown Store scroll buff). Same Auridon Dolmens. After about three, XP dropped back down to around 10k. Weird.

Whats your in game name? I do those same 3 dolmens daily. When I'm enlightened I hit around 20k. regularly I hit 8k and this is solo.

@babedenny remember that enlightenment boosts all xp can burn through it very quickly on dolmens - think was also getting 20-30k just from kills also. So suggestion is to check your enlightenment after one dolmen and you should have used around 100k if you use it up in 3 of them. Usually takes me a bit longer but then usually don't get all the kills.

How do I check to see if I have the enlightenment buff? I only notice the message when I log in. I've yet to see where it's listed with other buffs.

You may have seen my NB jumping around in the melee, lol. I'm not getting any usable gear for this character, but it has helped me buff up my alt a bit. I've been doing the Dolmens more for the XP, gold, and soul gems.

On your character sheet, look at the CP/XP bar. Your current CP progress is shown by the light fill. If the background is the same colour as the filling bar, but darker, you have Enlightenment. If the background is black, you don't. Enlightenment ends at the point where the darker colour transitions to black.

babedenny

OK, thanks. I saw it this time around, and now I know. And yes, the extra Dolmen XP was from enlightenment. Thanks.
