@Juji I play on Core EU server too and IT quest by default gives 20 bil exp there without any 2x boost, Streamer 4r4m did that quest too and in Korean server gives the same 20 bil exp without boost

so very strange why ncwest got 2x less cut exp there ? and now you made as it double exp. if it double should give 40 bil exp

This was what Dev told me two hours ago regarding the current 20 billion XP for the quest and that we already had the boost. I will check with Dev team and the design documents again.

The Talisman of Baium (Imprint) will be permanent once you claim it and will NOT be deleted at the end of the event.

@Juji imperial tomb and storm isle boost isn't working. Instead of destroying ios focus on post corect information...

They were deployed by mistake last week with the Dawn of Heroes update. What you are seeing now is the boost active for the Imperial Tomb quest reward (originally 10 billion without boost), Double XP/SP rewards in Storm, and the Double drops in Primeval.

Prior to the update, we had 100% XP/SP Boost, 300% Vitality Boost, and the Party Hunting Bonus for 6 weeks, so it is hard to see XP change in Storm Isle (check Fury Tier Nero XP reward on L2 Wiki for reference).

Double Drops you can easily see in Primeval as the original quantity (x1) and drop chance has doubled.

The Imperial Tomb quest did not exist before the update, so there is no "before" number to compare it with. Other regions received the same quest reward file for their update.

Angel Cat is having some trouble spawning. I will spawn for another day after server maintenance tomorrow.

Here is an update on the situation:

You may find using the Dev Tracker tab useful for these kind of updates.

We requested for this change after the Winter of War update. The dev team is working now on addressing other areas of the game, but I will bring this back up with them again.

Lv. 105+ zones only (not all of them, but specific ones). More details will be posted later today about it and yes you can get Greater Jewels Lv. 1 with a rare chance.

The rate may get changed back in the future with another content update. We will monitor the situation for now with the Dev team.

Primeval Isle drops are already doubled since last week. It will go back to normal on 5/27. Same with XP rates for Storm and the quest rewards for Imperial Tomb.

After last update In Primeval isle all Blessed enchant scrolls are now dropping by 3 pieces each time a mob drops.

This is not a bug, but an issue where our 16th Anniversary event was partially deployed last week along with some other things. The drop rate is increased by double in that area until 5/27. There are other timed hunting zones that have been boosted. We will mention them in our event details page later today along with the early deployment issue.
