So I noticed the SP accumulation is a lot lower than it used to be. I have had people tell me there is a cap. I have also had people tell me that there is a feature in the game that changes how much you can get based on time played that day, so that people who play 8 hours that day don't get the same as the guy who only played for 2 hours.
Anyone have a good explanation of how all this works? link?
EDIT: I get that it has to do with WP accumulation during the match so please don't just post "It depends on your WP earned" |

Well, my man, I don't think It's daily anymore...It was before the CODEX build. I suppose It's just weekly now: I mean you got a certain SP amount you can get in a week and you can't go further with that; Moreover, you gain less SP as you get closer to the SP cap. I wonder if the SP booster modify your SP cap.... |

SP has a weekly cap and is increased when you have a SP Booster (Yup, pay to win on that part) and it has a diminishing return that grows lower and lower each game you play so it becomes harder to hit the weekly cap. Thing is, if you have free time and can spend 3 - 4 days you can reach the cap in 3 - 4 days if you play nonstop.
Next is the Passive SP cap. Every 3 or so seconds you gain 1 SP passively. Again there is a booster for this but I think it is bugged.
Each of these has a limit that you can reach each week before the reset (Wednesday morning during the downtime) but I'm not for sure what the weekly cap is though. Some say it is 500,000 with active SP Booster on and 210,000 Passive SP. Don't know if that is true though. |

It doesn't shorten the grind, Dev's have even said that it increases the SP cap weekly. So you can gain more SP than other players that week.

That's shortening the grind.
It's not giving you anything a non-paying player can't get hold of. It just means you get those skills and access to higher-tier gear a little earlier than someone who doesn't put money in. |

From what I told, Boosters give you a higher cap limit, best to ask SILENTSAM 69 since I think he has the post where the Dev said that. Also, the 2 weeks that I spent without a booster, I'd say I got about 350,000 - 400,000 SP before I started getting 0 SP. I just go another 30 booster this week and I seem to have gotten about 100,000 more SP this week than what I did last week and the week before. Best thing would be if a Dev could confirm this though but I did try to keeping up with the SP I got those 2 weeks. I might be off by a few 1,000 worth of SP or so but I tried to keep up as much as I could regardless. |
