I'm in the midst of regrinding MBE, and decided I'd try out the new buffs. I'm currently grinding MNS's for about 105 exp per practice. However, neither an artisan buff nor a bio-eng buff have affected the experience I'm earning per practice.

Did I get the wrong buff, or is the +15% bio-eng experience just for DNA Sampling exp? The stickied FAQ mentions to be sure to get a buff when grinding out the med crafting portion, but perhaps that is out of date.

Any info on this would be appreciated!

Cindal has already suggested that the generic inspiration buff grants bonus crafting exp, but the BE inspiration does list Increase bio-engineer experience by 15%. Perhaps the devs got confused and Bio-Engineer Crafting exp IS getting a boost... but that's experience is no longer in the game.

Ketu, posting to the proper forum this time...

It did not work to grant the extra xp for me when i tested it. I tried to craft a pet, a chef tissue and a tailor tissue and i did not get extra xp for the things i could test properly. Crafting templates gives different xp depending on what you use so i couldn't really test that - at least not with the materials i had on hand.

I think I must have tested it on DNA sampling but I cannot recall the results so I won't speculate with no data.

I only used to see (when we still were able to see our xp gains in spatial) the bonus to DNA Sampling. I never saw any increase to Med Crafting and I would agree that since the buff says an increase to BE crafting and we no longer receive that type of xp that we are not getting any benefit from the buff.

This isn't the first time the devs have made a change where they did not understand or realize all that said changes effect/entail. They really need to get a process map and a Project Manager who understands how to manage a project, expecting them to get a Black Belt is probably akin todoing something into the wind. Most of these "errors" should have been caught before the code was even changed. I am truely ashamed to admit I share a profession with these people.

Update: this has been added to the bug list for the current buff system.
