Shifting my tattoo among minions is causing a 1% loss (in General)


xDanELx March 20 2005 1:14 PM EST

I was experimenting with my mage shield so I move my ToJ onto another minion. I started out with a 102k+ ToJ. After moving a few times, I am now left with a 100k+ ToJ, and I have to move it one more time. :( I thought no experience loss was supposed to happen? I noticed it only when I hit 101k+ so I moved it one more time just to make sure. And yes, it is losing. Currently on a wrong minion, its exact level is 100,420. After moving it to its current position, it is at 99,520.

Jon, can you please check this out? Because this means that I can't even move the ToJ around, and already, I've lost 2k+ from my ToJ. :(

Just for reference, if it matters, I was doing it a few minutes around this time,

Same result here. I moved the tattoo from one minion to another without unequiping.
102k tattoo became 101k.
I'm sure Jon will fix this. I just don't hold out much hope of getting that 1% back.
:-(
So take heed! Untill Jon fixes this don't move your tatoo between minions.

Moving the tattoo was the only operation?

There was a post earlier about it by BattleRoyalHacker about the same thing 2 days ago that went unnoticed/unanswered. I saw the Str/Dex on him minion with a TOA and it dropped after he moved the TOA from one minion to another and back again. It dropped a total of 2%, 1% for each move.

And he did not unequip it, just switched minions.

Fixed. Sorry about that.

QBRanger March 20 2005 4:35 PM EST

Hey any chance of getting those levels back for those who posted it. That is for xdanelx or Battleroyalhacker?

vendo March 20 2005 4:39 PM EST

Or me? :-P

Not likely though.

Sorry; I have no way of verifying such claims. No doubt Dan's and Vendo's claims are legit but there are people who wouldn't scruple to falsify a report to get some extra lvls.

Fair enough, Just had to ask.

Thanks anyway at least for fixing the problem.

Not a problem as well for me. As long as it gets fixed. :)

... and not being wrong this time. YAY!!! :D
