I am (was) getting too much Enlightenment - solved

So yesterday I decided to break from Cyrodil and grind out the enlightenment (lets call it EM) on my main character. I thought you could have up to 1 CP worth of EM at a time, but upon receiving my 71st point I found I still had EMt. So I ground out that point too.

Upon receiving my second CP I still had more EM. I figured maybe this was "retroactive" or "built up" EM from the system launching a few days ago so I thought nothing of it.

After getting 4 CP my EM finally ran out.

Now today I logged on and as expected had EM again. So I went and ground out the point (only takes about 30-40 minutes to get a CP with EM) and discovered that I had more EM for the next point. I got that CP also. And yet again I have more EM to get my third point. I assume there will be enough to get my 4th point today also.

ZoS, I assume this is not WAI? Does this have anything to do with the fact that I have 4 VR characters?

    I got the enlightement four times in tree hours today (20 minute each).
    Weird fact is that evrybody get a different version of this "enlightement" in my guild.

    Have you spent these points already? I have seen reports of the UI SHOWING you have enlightment and are gaining CP, but when they go to spend them they are not there (since technically they had no enlightment and therefore didn't actually earn the CP). Just wondering.

    I think the official line is 3 or 4 points a day. If you don't play you can bank up to 3 days.

    They are spent.
    I think the official line is 3 or 4 points a day. If you don't play you can bank up to 3 days.

    So I can bank 9-12 points worth of EM? Because I seem to be getting 3-4 points worth of EM per day. That is not how I understood the system to work.

    I too am getting 3-4 CP of enlightenment per day, is that intended, or is it supposed to be more like 1 CP?

    You are getting the right amount, every day you should get enough enlightenment to get you ~3-4 CP points.

    You get 4CP worth of EM per day, or something like that. So basically you can make 400,000 regular XP, but EM will increase that by x4(4 times), so it will be 1,600,000XP

    I hope its 3/4. That would just be perfect amount. It means 2/4 hours of play a day. Not casual, not hardcore, the perfect balance.

    There should be enough enlightenment to earn 4 points per day. Yours is working as intended. I wish mine was.

    All right, good to know. The help topic makes it sound like you get "up to one full CP', so I wasn't sure.

    Does anyone know if this will "bank" 12 days worth after taking a break for 3 days?

    So why did I only have enough Enlightenment for one point?
    You earned the 500 LOLs badge.
    You received 500 LOLs. It ain't no fluke, you post great stuff and we're lucky to have you here. +50 points

    It will bank 12 Cp worth of enlightenment exp, not 12 days :P.

    On a side note I suggest editing the OP with a note saying you are actually getting the right amount. Don't want to spread misinformation!

    So this was not intentional after all.

    From todays patch notes:

    "We fixed an issue where more Enlightenment was being given per day than intended. You will now gain one Champion Point worth of Enlightenment per day"

    I have re-edited the titile.
