Enlightenment usage question
fgoron2000
✭✭✭✭
Has there ever been a discussion about the fact that once you've earned enlightenment, that CP characters are obligated to use it? I think that you should be able to temporarily suspend usage (not the earning or the cap, but just the usage), so that you can utilize it on the character desired, when desired. The way it is now, if I want to use it on a particular character, for things such as leveling skills or actives/morphs, I have to do that first, before running activities on any other CP characters, whether that fits into my activity plans or not. I also have to be mindful of when enlightenment tops off each day, so that I stop what I'm doing on one character, and switch to another character that I want to "enlighten".
Thoughts?

fgoron2000✭✭✭✭Unless things have changed, enlightment is account wide. Once you finish it on a character, it is finished on all characters for that day.
Also, enlightment doesn't give bonus to skills and morphs. It's for champion points only.
To your first point, yes, I know that the Enlightenment is an available resource for the entire account, but each character is entitled to individually pull from that same pool. To go, one step further, the character is not only entitled, but is obligated to pull it from the pool. That means that, for instance, character one performs activities and earns 100k of XP while enlightened, and therefore gets 400k of XP applied to whatever skill lines and actives (and CP) they are leveling. The next character does the same activities for the same 100k of XP, and since the account-pooled enlightenment was already depleted, only gets 100k applied to skills and actives. In this example, I wanted the 2nd character to have actually gotten the quadrupled XP, so that certain skills get leveled, but to do that I'd have had to rearrange the order that I used the characters, and that didn't fit into my plans for the day. This is my exact point.
To your second point, it's for quadrupling the amount of XP that you earn. That affects not just CP, but it also increases how quickly your skills and actives level. It's not a separate bonus, it just increases how fast you get your next 400k of XP. Think of it not as a double XP buff but as a quadruple XP buff, and that instead of being capped by a half or 1 or 2 hour timer, it's capped by amount of XP, 400k's worth.
My point is, that instead of my having to modify my activities in the game, to give the enlightenment to the character I want to receive it, I'd like to be able to stop/start the enlightenment usage so that I don't have to juggle my characters around for that purpose. That simple, nothing more, nothing less...

It doesn't apply to the leveling of skills. And even if it did... how you use it is YOUR choice.

If you do a random, you get 100k XP.
If you're entlightened when you get that 100k XP, it's multiplied by 4 and 400k is applied towards CP's.
You're still only earning 100k.
It's why, during double XP events, you burn through enlightenment twice as fast, but the base XP itself is not affected by enlightenment. (If you have certain addons, it will actually show up as earned/quest XP, and bonus XP (being the +enlightened CP portion)
Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...
Earn it.

yeah, i do some of that now with the hotbar, in fact, if there's something i want to level but it doesn't fit in with the current quest, i'll do the activity with certain skills/actives, and then swap them out with other skills/actives and then turn in the quest...

Forgive me, but most games the player has to play according to how the GAME is designed, the game design does not revolve around the player. Thus, regardless of what YOUR plans are OP, you need to design your plans to work with the game's design.CP: 2078 ** ESO+ 2025 Content Pass ** ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****

To your first point, yes, I know that the Enlightenment is an available resource for the entire account, but each character is entitled to individually pull from that same pool. To go, one step further, the character is not only entitled, but is obligated to pull it from the pool. That means that, for instance, character one performs activities and earns 100k of XP while enlightened, and therefore gets 400k of XP applied to whatever skill lines and actives (and CP) they are leveling. The next character does the same activities for the same 100k of XP, and since the account-pooled enlightenment was already depleted, only gets 100k applied to skills and actives. In this example, I wanted the 2nd character to have actually gotten the quadrupled XP, so that certain skills get leveled, but to do that I'd have had to rearrange the order that I used the characters, and that didn't fit into my plans for the day. This is my exact point.
To your second point, it's for quadrupling the amount of XP that you earn. That affects not just CP, but it also increases how quickly your skills and actives level. It's not a separate bonus, it just increases how fast you get your next 400k of XP. Think of it not as a double XP buff but as a quadruple XP buff, and that instead of being capped by a half or 1 or 2 hour timer, it's capped by amount of XP, 400k's worth.

If you're entlightened when you get that 100k XP, it's multiplied by 4 and 400k is applied towards CP's.
You're still only earning 100k.
It's why, during double XP events, you burn through enlightenment twice as fast, but the base XP itself is not affected by enlightenment. (If you have certain addons, it will actually show up as earned/quest XP, and bonus XP (being the +enlightened CP portion)
well, my guildmates gave me similar info...I stand corrected on that...and I guess it makes my original question moot.
Well, looks like that clears it up. You can, however, put all the skills you want to level on one bar and do dolmen runs or get a guildie to do skyreach and power level them that way.
yeah, i do some of that now with the hotbar, in fact, if there's something i want to level but it doesn't fit in with the current quest, i'll do the activity with certain skills/actives, and then swap them out with other skills/actives and then turn in the quest...
thanks to all, I understand how CP is applied now...
No problem. If you happen to be on Xbox NA, hit me up. I'd be happy to run you through Skyreach.
thanks anyway but i'm on NA/PC

fgoron2000✭✭✭✭Strange... did OP actually say, "...but to do that I'd have had to rearrange the order that I used the characters, and that didn't fit into my plans for the day." As if the game should be designed around how THEY want it to work?!?
Forgive me, but most games the player has to play according to how the GAME is designed, the game design does not revolve around the player. Thus, regardless of what YOUR plans are OP, you need to design your plans to work with the game's design.
yeah i said that...I wasn't demanding a change to the game, I was asking about something that I thought would improve it, albeit on a misunderstanding of the CP mechanics...besides, how many recent games have been released full blown, and perfect, and not subject to user's input on how to modify it, or improve it. Further, there would be no use for these games, if there were no players to play them. The customer is certainly NOT always right, but he is entitled to use the product (play the game) as he wants, especially sandbox-type games which offer players the freedom to play a game how they want to play.Edited by fgoron2000 on June 8, 2018 11:14PM0
