Endeavours

Do Endeavours that give XP rewards (like today's dailies give 3k each) benefit from:

a) XP boosts from events such as Jubilee Cake?

b) Experience Scrolls?

Or are they fixed at 3k and not able to be boosted at all?

Thanks.
I'm 40+ and have been gaming since the 1980s and have owned machines like the ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, NES & PS1 - which involved loading 8/16-bit games off unreliable cassette tapes, floppy disks, CDs and giant cartridges with no "save game" ability - I don't like meta, I don't like memes, I don't like being rushed, I don't like the modern gaming industry - and you definitely won't change my mind just because it doesn't align with yours - it's a generational hazard!

    Yes, they benefit. I always do these on whichever is my highest level non-50, just for the extra XP.

    Excellent! Thanks for the quick answer. Yes, I have a new character at level 24 I will use cake and scroll boost - 9k to 27k or whatever I can get will be helpful.

    I did the weekly (listed as 15k xp) on a character who had both the cake buff and a 50% scroll running, and he was awarded 42k xp for completing it. So yes, I would say it DEFINITELY stacks!

    .....come to think of it, I'm not even sure where that extra 4.5k came from, as I would've thought the 50% applied to the base 15 and thus the total gain would be 37.5k. But all I know is I was watching his xp like a hawk (since he was my VERY LAST sub-50 character!), I definitely saw that 42k, and I'm not complaining! :D

    Did you include the 10% increased Experience having ESO+ grants, assuming you have it?

    15000 + 10% = 16500 (base XP + ESO+)
    16500 + 150% = 41250 (new base + boosts)
    ESO rounds it to 42k on the UI notification?

    Herp derp, you are smarter than me.

    Yes, I have ESO+, and I COMPLETELY forgot that it grants an XP bonus (I just use it for the craft bag lol).

    And, while 41250 by itself would be more likely to be rounded DOWN, it was most likely rounded UP when you add the XP I got from killing the mob that actually finished the endeavor.

    Thanks for clearing that up; that kinda confusion ain't gonna ruin my day, but it IS the sort of thing that'll just lowkey bug/nibble at me for a while, heh.

    Haha, it bugged me... I was tapping away on a calculator trying to figure it out. Had just given up, coming to the same 37.5k conclusion as yourself, when the ESO+ bonus sprang to mind. :p

    I did this endeavor on a low level char but she did not get the three k exp. Is there a level requirement to get seals and experience?

    Not as far as I'm aware.

    Don't think so, but you don't get the same rewards each day. Sometimes it's just Endeavours, some days they throw in gold or XP as a bonus.
