PSA: Jubilee Cake DOES NOT stack with other XP bonuses.

vyndral13preub18_ESO · April 2016

Honestly if i wasted real money item on it, i would fill out a ticket with customer support. I am assuming there is a way to do this? I never have.

They told you it would work it didnt. You wasted real money on an item that didnt work they way they said it would.

Looks like another feature implemented in a hurry without being tested for if it works as intended.

Serenityx · April 2016

*** HELL! How?! Just how do these things get released. I know every game community loves to complain about said games devs but I've never played an MMO as profitable as ESO with this many *** ups! Rip all my roes that I specifically used to create ambrosias this week. Now instead of hoping they'll sell a little faster they won't sell AT ALL.

Kierra_1 · April 2016

Well nice to know I wasted an xp scroll on nothing last night.

Killa4hire89 · April 2016

Have they released any plans to fix this? Or to allow you to use in cyro? This *** sucks having to leave gyro bc a zone boss one shots you then run back etc. This is bs

The_Lex · April 2016

I just filed a support complaint about the xp scrolls I used. I got an auto reply that had NOTHING to do with my complaint.

Enodoc · April 2016

PSA? Is that some new type of PlayStation? But your screenshots and video are of PC, so it's not a typo of PS4 either.

Wonder what the real response will be.

Thanks for all the info, guys. To confirm, we are actively investigating and will let you know what is intended, what isn't functioning properly, and what we plan to do as soon as we can today.

PSA = Public Service Announcement.

@Enodoc PSA is an acronym for public service announcement.

@ZOS_GinaBruno, will we be refunded our Scrolls/XP Potions that we wasted yesterday on this?

Anyone else having their Jubilee Cake buff removed upon death? I have eaten the cake, died 5 minutes later, and my buff was gone. Every time I die this happens. Reapplying the buff from the momentos after every death is mildly annoying, but the worst part is not realizing it was removed and wasting an hour or so last night with no double XP. If this isn't unique to me, it's probably another thing worth informing others about.

Will you be providing those of us who used our crown scrolls with a replacement? I can't just undo that...

Yes, it goes away every time you die. Enjoy summoning your cake

From what I gather, that's happening to everyone. Which stink since you can't reapply the buff in Cyrodil since the cake is coded as a momento.

@TheForseti You are not alone. I was doing a trial last night and everyone there was also experiencing that.Apparently buff gets removed when you die.

I'm not holding my breath, but I submitted a support ticket about my wasted scolls.

ZOS_GinaBruno · April 2016

One thing that would really help us expedite our checks is if you could pass along your character name and platform/megaserver (feel free to PM if you don't want to post it publicly) if you feel like the cake is not stacking properly. Thanks in advance for your help.

EDIT: I took two XP scrolls
EDIT 2: The frustrating thing is that I just recently subbed, too. I should have had a 160% gain in XP

nathan_bri · April 2016

I /bugged it from within the game after testing cake, then cake + crafted potion, then just potion and then cake + potion again. Cake gives 100%, potion gives 50%, cake + potion gives 100%.

Character name Bri, Mac/Windows NA server.

Rotaugen is character I tested it on. Play on NA PC. Tested on Giants in Wrothgar. Normally get 910 XP with no inspiration. I have a 10% bonus for ESO +. With cake I get something like 1654 XP, which is taking the base experience for my VR16 times two, but not counting the 10% ESO+ bonus.

So to be fair for Us - Celebrating the anniversary of The Elder Scrolls Online will be extended by the additional time that was needed to fix this bug, right?

This one only had chance for a couple of quests before work.

With only this ones ESO Plus boost the quest usually gets this one about 8,000 xp
With the pink fizzy ambrosia that Santie normally takes for breakfast she would usually get about 11,000 xp
With the cake and then the fizzy for breakfast today she got about 14,000 xp

(sorry this one cannot recall exact figures)

Khajiit has no idea if this is correct or not but someone in another thread said it was not. The quests were done at about 6.15am this morning UK time if it helps.

This one will hopefully be resuming questing business in about an hour and a half time when she is free from other pressures. This one hopes she may finally reach the lofty heights of VR16 tonight - right before it all changes again ...

Yours with paws
