    Just for clarity here, it is just triple XP and NOT triple loot as well, right?

    Ghost ship issue as well. Two prizes for three lanterns. I tried tearing them down and rebuilding. We'll see if that does anything.

    Humble explorer is solid for 6x presents, even if it has to be limited to medium searches. Fair compromise, and useful for events, during which I'd probably want them on medium anyway.

    Between triple XP, PFB, scouting post, and premium time, I expect to get over 50 million XP from the event. I still don't think I'll ever hit level 80, but I could see some people grinding through a level or two even in the 70s during Christmas. They're certainly not lacking for ways of presenting an opportunity. And now that I've got a second Nusala and Younger Gemini, that's sure helping me get through adventures faster.

    I thought I would work at getting some levels but then a lvl 70 said it would take him with both the friendship and premium buffs 70 WC to hit lvl 71, then I figured what the heck why even bother. This game is for people who play it hard core - 8 hours a day doing adventures and I will never be fast with adventures.

    It fixed it for me when that happened a while ago.

    Well, grinding Woodpeckers is one way to level, but there are other ways too.

    Take for example Beautiful Princess, full clear. Take for example Mary used against all the camps that have a Steersman as a leader in said adventure. A few need a sac wave first. All will have higher losses than using Vargus or Anselm or a Major but.... the xp from doing it this way is well over 1 million, I think last time we had bonus xp it was around 1.5 million with prem & scouting post. Friendship buff should take it higher still cause I don't think I was running one back then. I could be wrong about the PFB, but even still, 1.5 mil is pretty darn good xp either way.

    There's always more than one way of doing anything. Do Woodpeckers as a cooldown from the heavy lifting......

    Correction: As Trialgame points out later in the thread, XP from Princess with various boosts is 5.1 million, not 1.5. Relying on my memory, which is never a good thing to do these days, I transposed the numbers. I just know it was a crapton of XP from one adventure lol!!

    At any rate, the point still remains that there are excellent alternatives to endlessly grinding Woodpeckers for gaining XP.

    Found my notes: It's 1.5 million with a full clear, Mary taking out 8 leader camps with Steersman in them & XP bonuses of Premium & the Scouting Post. My memory apparently works just fine.

    Will run a BP during the event and see how it comes out with Event bonus, PFB, Scouting Post & premium. That will likely be closer to the 5 million Trialgame is talking about.

    And Finally..... this: Ran a BP full clear and got 7,083,815 XP. Steersman base xp is 8,300 so with all the bonuses active, using Mary on 8 of his 10 camps adds up nicely.

    I am doing BPs right now. Not full clear, but about two-thirds. With event, PFB, prem, and scout, I get 5.2mil exp. And I only use Mary on two camps.

    In respect to the issue with 3 lanterns but receiving 1-2 reward instead of 3.

    It seems that players reporting this, in fact received 3 rewards as should and that is just an graphic issue. You can reach out to the Support Team to make agents check and confirm that this is the case. If there will be a reward missing, they will make it right.
