I assume it would. 3x plus booster would make it 4.5x the natural rate? |

Check title.
3x SP from tomorrow till thursday, this also increases the cap. I'm wondering if boosters have any effect on this.
Edit: From tomorrow till NEXT Thursday holy kitten. |

I'm going to say yes, if only because they made specific mention of active boosters in the same post

If active boosters don't affect the cap, then they're essentially useless for the one week they're on sale. Well not technically useless, but you'd just reach the same cap number as a non-booster player a few matches earlier. |

From the wording I am assuming that all active sp is 3x, including sp gained from active boosters. I keeps on saying active because I believe that passive SP remains unchanged.
A pity. Could you imagine the sp count if everything was 3x. :-) |

More than 500k. You are looking at 190400 x 3 = 571200 + active booster 95200 x 3 = 285600 giving a total of 856800. This does not include grinding after reaching the soft cap of upto 4500 sp per game. |

? The event starts on Wednesday after downtime which is when the SP cap is reset anyway. So there is no golden period as such. I assume CCP learned the lesson from the previous time. |

This makes me wonder why are they giving away free SP this has got me thinking what if the skill books in the new build are more expensive than this build there is always a catch and why would CCP want to do a event like this, they know most players will turn up with boosters why give people that extra power i mean it's cool that they are doing this i use boosters so it's a win win situation but why would you give the players that extra control if their isn't some way you can take it away from them |

I'd appreciate it if someone from CCP would essentially say "If you would normally get 1000 SP, instead you will get X SP, and if you have a booster running as well you will get Y SP". To be 100% clear. As it stands now with the booster it could get you 3500SP for that same 1000 or it could be 4500SP. |

If the event doesn't finish until next Thursday then there will be another cap reset next Wednesday! So you'll have 24 hrs in which to hit cap at x3 sp |

How is this too complex for people to understand? You get 3x the SP gained in battles. That means not passive. That means whatever you'd normally get in battle is x 3, regardless of boosters. So if you use boosters, you'll get 3 x the boosted amount. |

Duh! No. Soft cap isn't changing, but you'll get 3x as a bonus. |

Oh no I just thought of something terrible
Post hard-cap SP gains are based entirely on WP accumulation during a match, for instance:
If you make 500 WP in a game you get 500 SP. If you have an active booster, then you would gain 750 instead of 500.
Similarly:
1000 WP (max cap) = 1000 SP = 1500 SP with active booster.
So the soft cap is based on an aloted amount of WP to SP one can earn in a game. If the soft cap is being raised from 1000 to 3000 does that mean we will have to make 3000 WP every game in order to take full advantage of this cap increase?
The most WP I've ever generated in an ambush was about 2300, in a skirmish 3100
*immediately begins to zone out ,into a meditative state, to contemplate on how to consistently repeat the above reported successes consistently for the better part of half a week. |
