Update Observations

I just died with allied tags twice and no exp lost. I think its a glitch.
 
I level sync'd on my WHM wearing the following:

Healer's Cap
Healers Briault
Healers Mitts
Healers Pantaloons (lol)
Healers Duckbills
Qiqirn Sash
Blue Cape
Beak Necklace
Deaths Earring
Antivenom Earring

I was sync'd to level 27 and all I got from my equipment was:

Healers Mitts +10MP
Qiqirn Sash +10MP
Healers Cap +13MP
Antivenom Earring +2 MP
Deaths Earring +2 MP

I got no other benefits that I could see. Woot.
 
Absolute Virtue was nerfed in HP anywhere from 35k-70k from the benediction that went off earlier.

Better than 110k either way ;D
 
Well, the hopeful news is that the description for the Allied Tags still reads "One of the benefits is that in the case you are knocked out on the battlefield, you will not lose any experience points." So, expect emergency maintenance within the next few days... and hopefully not to just change the allied tags description! :nono:
 
I died 3 times in a CB and lost XP every time AND after about 30 mins of fighting I turned in tags and only got 290 XP. I'm sure as hell not doing CB again until that emergency maintenance.

edit: Has anyone called a GM about it? they should know wether its a glitch or not

then statistically if 2 people call we get one lazy-I-don't-give-a-shit answer and one real answer?

Current Known Issue (Sep. 8)

Since the implementation of the latest version update on Sep. 8, 2008, we have confirmed the following issue. Investigation and recovery work is currently underway.

- Participants of Campaign Battle with Allied Tags would lose experience points if they become KO'd after recovering from KO'd status.

*The experience loss can be prevented by receiving another Allied Tag after the initial KO.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

So it is a glitch. I'm hoping you stop gaining XP after your 1st KO too cause I only got 290XP in 30 mins :(

Edit: also when im using windower my game crashes once /shutdown timer ends

They need to make it so you lose some exp but not the normal amount.
 
Died with allied tags on and lost EXP...then I go read Playonline.com, jeezus f-cking christ.
 
Got 2 of the small alexandiarite(sp) pouches in salvage tonight. First one gave 19 second gave 17.
 
What's the deal with the ZNM rage timers? We get 2 hours per NM like with PW / AV before they go ballistic or despawn?
 
The SE information says that AV and PW will depsawn after two hours.

That.. doesn't answer the question posed.. I even mentioned AV/PW despawn, I'm asking if OTHER znm's have rage timers now.
 
I thought I was posting an observation, not answering your question...

This implies you actually observed something.. which you didn't. My question is regarding

"The strength of Zeni NMs will now gradually be adjusted after a predetermined amount of time has elapsed following their being claimed." If anyone can elaborate based on their experience share your thoughts.

For all we know that could mean they build a resistence to shit. I doubt they'd have rage timers.
 
I heard on BG AV despawns 2hrs after JOL was popped, instead of 2hrs after AV pop.
