Silly Vanity travels stealing my xp

Never was a fan of them before, but after starting to play on Beta, I thought I'd give them a go. And I scored the Void Skiff in a few super packs.

Tangent..the void skiff..looks like an upsidedown energy shield. It does not say 'void' or 'skiff' to me..in any way at all. Considering all the voidy co powers are purpley and dark..A name like Energy Glider would have been more fitting..

Tangent 2. Doing the contacts in AP, the one where you 'play' as her, while watching on a video recorder. I had the skiff active as I went into teh mission..and the NPC spawned..riding the skiff too! So I tried it with the magic carpet..looked awesomely silly, the lady flynig around the mission on a carpet.

Oh, my point. What was it..
Ah yes. If you have any of these powers on (I assume things like rocket board, panther run etc do it to)...because it detoggles ALL your powers bar inherent/the power itself...any xp buffs you have going, will not work.
I want my 500 xp back!

Does it return once toggled off? If not, that is quite a huge deal, or would have been.

No it didnt.
I mean..its not a huge deal, cause on Live we can only auto complete a mission what..once every 3 days?
But..I think its pretty likely people would have been completing talky mission while 'In' vanity travels, calling in arc completions etc etc. Which..would be a big deal, if instead of getting double xp arc bonuses, you get less, even more so if you actually PAID for the 2XP Booster.

As far as I know, the double xp boosters never made it to live, and I thought they were still bugged on beta - they weren't actually giving extra xp or something.

The other ones I think work though.

Pretty sure they are working on Beta. I lvl'd from 1-32, 32-47, 47-50 in 3 days, no farming. They are totally awesome and broken. lol

It should be noted that "Personal Story Arcs" where you play through as the character (i.e. without attacks) do not actually award any xp upon completion (in my experience with the DA arcs, at least). However, the fact that it did not return upon mission completion is strange.


@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

On Beta, the Deadlock mission actually has xp during it..its only 3 longbow, but its something. I cant remember if teh Antimatter personal arc gave any.

I know it used to be bugged, and the main reason it never went to the live store.

From what I've heard/read, they were only available on live for a limited time.
