Everquest: Experience Bonuses

There are several ways to get Experience Bonuses in Everquest. The simplest and fastest ones are pay to win potions from the in-game store. There are some in-game options as well.

Potions usually won’t work on reward claims from tasks/missions, but may in some scenarios. Regular XP and AA XP sometimes can work differently on rewards when using potions as well. Generally, don’t expect to get extra experience from a potion or in-game experience mod item when claiming a reward that grants experience.

Server XP bonuses on the other hand work more often when claiming task/mission rewards, but may not always. Server XP bonuses also stack with other XP modifiers such as potions and Lesson of the Devoted when killing mobs.

DBC = Daybreak Cash. Prices can go on sale at Daybreak’s discretion.

In-Game Experience Bonuses
Expansion/Source	Name	% Increase	Details
All	Server Bonuses	Varies	Daybreak will do Server XP bonuses throughout the year. These generally stack with all other bonuses. This is the best time to use all other +Experience consumables. Check the EQ Official Website, Discord, and in-game calendar for updates.
All	Grouping Experience Bonus	Varies	Your group gets a passive XP bonus based on how many people are in the group. See the hover link for the most updated numbers posted by a Developer. This number is divided by the number of players in the group. The 6th player is a “bonus” spot, so you’ll only divide by 5 even with 6 players in the group. Leveling as a group is almost always most efficient if leveling in-era.
All	/claim Window Rewards	Varies	Check your /claim window for any claims you might have. Sometimes Daybreak will give out free Anniversary and/or other types of bundles that have XP potions in them. These are typically 1 time use.
DoN AA	Lesson of the Devoted	100%	AA. 20 Hour cooldown. Lasts 30 minutes
6th Anniversary Event Reward (DoN+?)	Dusty Ceremonial Elixir of Scholarship	100%	30 min duration. 10 charges. It is a lengthy “scavenger hunt” type quest. Can only get the reward 1 time per character.
TBS	Fellowship Vitality XP Sharing	3x-5x XP	This is a way to transfer experience from online characters to offline characters via “vitality” for future use. Both characters must be in the same Fellowship with XP sharing turned on. 3x XP Rate for AA Exp. 5x XP Rate for regular XP. There is a limit to how much can be saved at once.
SoF	Learner’s Aura: Ranks I, II, III>	5/7/9%	While not commonly used due to better alternatives, Enchanters do get an XP aura. It can be useful in the right situation. It does not stack with potions or other mods.
SoD	Potion of Adventure	50%	Part of the “Gift of Legacies Lost” package in the /claim window. Becomes active in Seeds of Destruction. 10 Potions. 30 minute duration each. Claimable on every character. Granted to all subscribed accounts (unverified)?
CoTF	Glyph of Stored Experience	Varies	Not an XP Bonus, but XP storage. Upon completing Progression Quests and Missions you can choose to save your experience in an item and use it later. If you out level the item before using it then you’ll receive less comparative XP.
