How did he do 30 to 20 then back to 30? It only got me to level 24. Or can you do two LRs and go back to 30?


As I've said at least once already in this thread, if you are 30, do an ETR. Level back to 20 but don't talk to the lady to leave the bridge area (but level to 20). Log out. Log back in. Talk to her. She will give you all 8+ million XP to get back to 30. It just doesn't refill you karma.

If you are a fresh level 20 or and Iconic who's recently taken 20, she'll only give you the total amount of heroic XP for your life.

He was already thirty. You were leveling a TR that is second life. So, you only get to go to 24. I recently leveled a TR that was third life and he went to 25. I also did two ER's on different characters and they're back to 30 immediately.

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

I had this type of thing happen around mid way last year and am curious if the GM's will restore ED xp right now with this feature active. If they do, this method gains even more uses so you can keep replenishing your karma instead of having to grind it out after 4 ER's.

Did they get a reply from a GM/xp restored?

Dear players,

The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

Love,

People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

Cool. Next ER I might try to reset my ED's and get my karma restored. If my speculation as to what causes the ED reset is correct it should be easy to reset them. Don't want to risk it too many times though as that might become suspicious.

You won't be able to use this any second longer if that threat was closed. I am totaly in favor of "hide good things noone else knows" but once it is out in the open everyone should have some fun. For real exploits more exploiters equals a lesser chance to get caught/permabanned yourself. For this one it is more FUN the more players do it .. imho...

you do the epic TR, level your guy to 20 then log out.  logb back in and then talk to the leveling ball (or whatever it is) and you get enough xp to go to 30.

I had discovered this "feature" right before New Year by accident as well: due to festivities, I logged out while allocating action points after an ETR. Surprise the next day, when the lady gave me enough XP to level back to 30.

I wanted to keep quiet about it, but now that it is in the open anyway ...

So the trick works even if you ask to allocate action points, as long if you don't spend them all. I.o.w. the "attribute action points" option has to remain open when you log back in.

Unfortunately, last weekend the system bugged out and I also lost all epic destinies progress. A GM understood the problem immediately and was able to help me in less than a minute - which shows it was definitely something he encountered before. I've been keeping an eye on the fatespinners since then and recognised other peeps being helped in a similar way as I was.

On the plus side, he gave me back full xp for each destiny and full karma in every sphere. Yet he also added a fairly dubious remark about him being cautious in case I met the problem again, which betrays he was very well aware what exactly happened.

I'm a bit paranoid now to ETR again, so if anyone knows what causes the ED reset, feel free the let me know. I'll then just ETR 4 more times now and call it quits.

I encountered a similar bug (not the ED xp but not receiving enough regular xp on my ETR) and I wasn't using this feature at the time. The game is too bugged for them to start banning on the assumption that something isn't right lest they repeat Mayban.

EDs can reset with or without trickery going on. I don't think anybody knows why definitively so it's difficult to avoid.

Its weird being at 28... I played for hours, I'm halfway to 29. I've never been at 28 for any longer than it takes to clear out the TR cache and walk to the fate spinner.

That dialog stays open for me after spending all my action points.

One supposed fix for the problem of losing past lives & tomes, etc., is to close the client and restart between ETRs. It's hard to confirm a negative, so this might not be a workaround after all. Caveat DDO player.

1. Get flagged for reincarnation.
2. Quit the game.
3. Take a good, hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why you should take step #4.
4. Restart the game.
5. Console your misery and regret with step #6.
6. ????
7. Profit.

I have been logging out between getting the TR-Flag and the actual TR-ing for yerars now and never lost anything.
