Double, even triple your empress Experience with no waiting

Hello everyone,
I am writing this even though most of you already know it, but just in case some of you don't. If you are like me, work can keep you away from the game for up to an entire day or more at times. Here is a way to get more Experience during your precious time, especially if you solo. If you know you are not going to be playing for 15 hours or so, activate your empress ring and log out. When you log back on 15 hours later, you will still have the full 180 minutes to get your 1000 exp bonus. Here's the good part. Your ring will have reset, so that after you get that 3000 exp including the 1000 bonus, you can activate the ring again IMMEDIATELY, and do another 3000 at the bonus rate. And here's where it gets really good. If the second activation was the final charge on the ring, you can warp to jeuno, get it recharged, and IMMEDIATELY go for a third bonus 3000 exp round. In other words, if you plan when you are going to EXP accordingly, you can get 3 empress ring bonuses in a row with no waiting or 9000 exp at the bonus rate! Hope this helps some of you out.Mynx

A word of caution with exp rings

Golagres once made an argument that once i looked at it i had no choice but to agree with his logic. To make this easy to understand i'll use the following figures...
In a party where members are 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, and a 51 (1k tnl)
It is therefore rude for the 51 to pop his exp ring... this will tank the exp for the rest of the party sooner. which can overal be worse for the party than if he was to wait till after he lvled to pop his exp ring... I have known of this trick since its release... actual gol stummbled on it shortly after that patch within a few days. However I personal would boot someone who decided they wanted to warp back to wherever to charge their ring so they could use it again... being a player who knows that trick.. i'd kick them shortly after they left. So you have to determine if possibly being booted and recieving no exp is worth this extra 1k bonus and honestly i'd consider that a blistable offense... just my two cents.

I would kick them also

That's why you activate and fill it before you take off to party. That's what I do anyway.

The third option was specific

The third option was specifically illustrated for solo purposes. I was a little unclear in my explanation. just not used to posting things. this was my first. I would never leave a party to recharge the ring. Mynx

solo yes

pt no! lol

Yep yep



That is a good way to solo with your xp ring. Hopefully you can use it, and find a party when you login, and gain the 1000xp bonus before 180 mins is up.


Another trick with the ring. When you use your last charge, you can take it back and have it "refilled". When you do, it also resets the timer on it. Meaning, you can use it twice that party! (Once before you leave, fill it, again when it wears) NOTE: This only works after your LAST charge. He will still "refill" it if it's not empty, but it won't reset the timer.

wow!

Great find! this is awesome how did you figure this out ?! I certainly would never have thoguht of it >:O thank you^^
