Possible big/glitch/exploit involving double AP on PS5/PS4 NA

Auberon1983

Let me preface by saying I'd taken about 2 months away from the game due to life issues, so if this is just a new system I missed in old patch notes, I apologize.

I created a couple Arcanists to try the class out, and at level 10, went to Cyrodiil (Icereach) to do my "basic training", as usual. Instead of being rewarded with ~3k AP, I was instead given about 6,600 AP, per step in training (talking to Bugbesh, repairing the siege, talking to the two Warlords), leaving me with almost 20k AP. I also received 4 rewards for the worthy, rather than two.

Wondering if this was an Arcanist only glitch, I created a Sorc, power leveled to 10, and tried again. Same result: ~20k AP and four rewards for the worthy.

Now, I'm fully aware during Whitestrake/Midyear AP is doubled, but I missed that event, and it ended on the 11th of this month.

I didn't test this further to see if AP is doubled across the board, or just during training.

Also, DC had no scrolls, fact of business EP dominated the map and had emp. So, no bonuses to speak of.

Again, sorry if this is just a new system and I'm, once again, a day late and a dollar short, or if this is an unintended bug.

I think it might be a you only glitch. When running through the basic cyrodiil training with my Arcanist I had a war torte on but the AP I gained from the basic training seemed much less than I expected, usually it's enough to get to level 3 in my recollection but this time I needed the basic training plus almost all of the Cropsford dailies.

Low population bonus, maybe?

Likely just low-pop bonus when you went in there to do the tutorial.

There would be a limit to how many times you can do this per account because you can only delete so many characters before having to buy additional character slots, which I’m sure ZOS would be happy for you to do.
