Rationer issue only on some alt chars?

Anyone else find that Rationer works just fine with xp drinks like 100% aetherial ambrosia on -some- chars on same account, but consistently -some- other alt chars have it not work at all?

e.g. have 18 chars, and on many Rationer works just fine - for 100% aetherial ambrosia it extends to full 1h 20min (30min base + 30min rationer + 20min prov passive)

But on other alt chars, 100% consistently, it doesn't work at all - giving only 30min base + 20min prov passive for 50min total.

Have tried all the logical things - complete reset of all CP and re-add Rationer. Don't use an addon to slot Rationer and disable, slot manually, etc. Nothing. I have 12 chars that Ration works 100% fine, all the time. But on rest of chars, fails 100%.

    If it’s working, that’s a bug. Rationer was changed so it doesn’t extend the timer on XP drinks or AP foods.

    Could it be that you already had those timers running on those toons?

    Can you source where that change occurred officially? Hadn’t read that in path notes. What they said was correcting a miscalculation of rationer, because some ppl got bit more time on drink than intended (e,g 1hr 40min instead of the max 1hr 20min with both prof and rationer

    Definitely not old drinks still running. To test this I used 18 aetherial ambrosia on all 18 of my chars. So new drink buffs. On 12 they worked fine, on 8 they don’t. And as noted it is 100% consistent as in on chars it works on, always works, and on those that don’t, 100% never works,

    On chars it doesn’t work, tried resetting all cp, unslotting rationer and manually slotting. Etc. seems the bug fix to correct the extra time is itself bugged and instead reduces the time on some chars

    It's in the update patch notes, particularly the spoiler section.

    I made already a thread here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/7219761/#Comment_7219761

    And got a official reply that it wasnt indented to extend the duration of XP Buffs.

    I see the links have already been posted above. The patch notes did not mention this specific change originally but were updated to reflect it after players starting asking about it and Gina posted the official response.

    The bug is that some of your characters are getting the extended duration still. If resetting CP and reapplying the Rationer star reduces the timer so that Rationer does not apply, that is actually the fix.

    Ok thanks, I missed that thread. Read the official response from Gina so that settles that.
