As I understand it the timer starts from when you ding, it's not a set day/time.

So it starts when you get your level, in seven days time you get your free ding. But it won't reset until you get your next level, after which you need to wait another seven days.


Hope that makes sense in any case. :D

Im pretty sure the timer starts from the 1st time you log in with 1.71. Then every 7 days after that, if youve dinged in the 7 days , you get a pop up telling you youve got a free level.

Ok, first free level will be first time you ding after 1.71, or 7 days after 1.71, whichever is later. Second free level will be first time you ding after gaining your last free level, or 7 days after gaining your last free level, whichever is later.

I dinged 46 at approximately 22:00 GMT last night and got my free level pop up at approximately 22:01. This was the first time I had levelled since the last free level which came approximately 24 hours after the previous ding to that !! (3 days ago).

I like this new free level random-as-you-like-might-be-too-soon-to-have-time-to-scratch-your-arse-but-hey-who-cares-its-free-! :)

the timer starts when you first login after 1.71, it ticks down to 0.

At 0 it checks if you've levelled naturally since 1.71 or the last free level.

If so - popup message.

if not, it waits till you ding naturally then immediately give popup.

Timer is then reset to 7 days.

My BD was the first toon I logged in on 1.71, at about 1800 GMT on patch day, nothing as of 0000 last night, even spoke to my trainer in case, he was 42.2 on patch day, dinged 43 on Saturday and as of yesterday morning was 43.4, so more than 10 bubs made naturally. The times that people are getting these popups seems extreemly random.

My theory is that timer didn't start at patch but also counts dings had 6,99 days before patch if you know what I mean. So if you dinged 4 days prior to patch you'll get a free level 3 days after patch.

Anyway just type /freelevel to see the status on given char. It has allways shown correct for me (been playing with freelevel awhile now on u.s server) and remember only "natural" dings count. You won't get a freelevel if your last ding was a free one if you know what I mean :)

Last free level is at 47 so try to ding naturally from 46-47 for max bonus :)

The command /freelevel wasn't implemented before patch 1.72 afaik. So thats hard to use for us on EU with 1.71 :p

Don't forget we're in the General Discussion forum here. Albs, Hibs and Mids DO NOT get their free level at the same interval, it depends on your server. On Excal, Albs get it every 7 days, Mids 3 days (I think) and Hibs every 2 days, hence the possible confusion...

do you get a free semi-levels?

also to the person with many characters that have "dinged" I think you have to train a whole level and "ding"

ie. if when you first log into a character it is 1 bub in then you would have to train 1 lvl and 1bub perhaps? I'm not sure on this tho' as I'm on hib and my characters are having a levelling fest left right and centre!! :p

Wheres that written?

Patch notes 1.71 said:
The Enhanced Leveling System

Now that Camelot is nearly three years old, the bulk of our players are above level 35. Because of this it is becoming more challenging for casual gamers and low-level players to find groups, which can result in long leveling times and frustration. As such, we have implemented changes to the leveling system that will help all players level faster, no matter what server they play on. These changes are intended to be especially helpful to casual gamers and low-level players, allowing them to gain levels faster and more steadily.

- All characters will now be granted enough experience for a free level every seven days, if the character has attained a level by regular play in that time. In other words, if you play your character and gain at least one level in a seven day period, your character will be given enough experience for the next level free.

- Underpopulated realms characters will receive the free level experience more often, up to a minimum of every two days, if the character has attained a level by regular play in that time.

- Players gaining experience from the Enhanced Leveling System will now also be awarded an amount of gold dependent upon the level the player has progressed to.

- When your character has gained a level by regular play, and qualifies for the free experience, a pop-up will appear, informing you that you can now gain a free level's worth of experience at your trainer.

- Please note that using the free experience at the time it is granted will be the most beneficial to your character, if you save the free experience until a later level (for example : you receive a free level at level 10, but wait until level 15 to use it), it will not be enough experience to grant you an entire level at that point.

- Characters will not lose their skill respec if they use the free experience at their trainer when the character is at levels 5, 20, and 40. Instead, the respec will disappear when the character has leveled again (for example : If your character is level 40, and your free experience takes you to 41, your free respec remains on your character until used or until level 42).

- After a character reaches level 47, that character may no longer make use of The Enhanced Leveling System.
I thought only 1 realm per server gets the underpopulated bonus, so Hib could get it sooner, think this could use a little clarification...

You might want to read www.camelot-europe.com, its under the servers restart message of 12/1. Tried to copy paste it here but came out all gooey. Mids is 6 days btw, not 3...
