    i'd like to make people aware who think about finishing the quest for the 10x xp and/or use their quest reset token for it:

    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...ale-does-not-give-xp-in-single-player.162798/

    so there is a good chance it won't work online either. have fun testing it on the single highest xp gain in the game though.
    this is likely GG for me though. i thought about questing online too now with the 10x xp, but tbh the frustration about this absolutely horrible **** up is a bit too big right now.

    How much xp did you get for completing it? Your screenshot doesn't show what you had for experience before you competed, so it doesn't show the issue.

    It was 100,000 for completion before, and looks like you got 1,000,000.

    The screenshot shows 2 mil, but he obviously doesn't have that much. Also, without knowing what he had before, it is difficult to see what he actually received.

    well, as i said, i got zero.
    i knew both my adv. and crafting xp before this happened, at least down to around ~10.000. so yeah, in theory it's possible i got like 4269 xp and didnt notice. i'll stick with zero though.

    not the same quest. very likely the same issue but unless someone opens a bug with something like: "all quest with more than x xp actually give zero xp" or "all main quest line quests give zero xp" its worth a report. plus it's also worth to be in the general forum because that is very important information for anyone doing quests right now.

    i just stumbled upon the catnip twitter which says that people have received xp items instead. checked my inventory and there is in fact a 2mil xp item.

    it's not actually usable though. so the joy is still a bit limited on my side. :rolleyes:

    in the past i've seen the xp apply if people try to move them around, like into a container.

    /facepalm

    What is it with this game and putting stuff in bundles/containers and notifications of cool things in a river of text in the chat log so you never get the dopamine rush that is 90% of the reason players play games?

    I'ts like they are purposely trying to prevent people from getting addicted to the game.

    rofl, that actually worked.
    had to put in a container in 30k pieces and then i could double click them and got the xp.
    Thanks :)

    this making the xp an item is a fallback. it happens ONLY when something goes wrong server side, so that the player doesn't lose the xp COMPLETELY.

    fallbacks are good. we like fallbacks.
