Stacking training boosters?

Ziptop's Photo Ziptop 03 Nov 2019

Can it be done? Can you run 2 or 3 training boosters at the same time?

 

If one gives you 300% two would give 600% etc?

Be careful with even one. Some events with "if you make more than ~XXX, you'll receive x2 pilot xp" or something like that, nullify boosters - for no reason at all but a bug. Sometimes boosters work, sometime not, buggy as hell. Frankly, I'm sick of it and won't be buying them any more.

I'll be old and grey(er) before I ever see a 14 skill pilot like yours then eh?

That guy started to fly in January of 2012, and got his first experience points in March of 2012 at the official beginning of closed Alpha. Since then, went from Tier 1 through two full lines to tiers 10, and several derails. All his points were made the hard way, simply by doing daily doubles and being persistent on premium planes... until he made his 13th point. Only then I've started to use gifted/bought boosters for the bloody 10 mill needed from 13 to 14.

 

And they are not reliable, more often than not something screws the calculation and you end up with simple x2 or x3 for the first victory.

 

 

edit

and no, you can't stack them. just tried it wih x300% money. once you choose one of the four (plane xp, money, pilot xp or free xp), the selected one becomes unavailable

Why not using the free xp booster, the money booster and the pilot experience booster at the same time?

Yes, you can do this. I tested this earlier myself. 

As Zen Monk says

1. You can not have 2 of the same boosts active at the same time (so no 3x300% for 900% training for example) 

2. The whole system might be a bit buggy anyway and so it's best avoided.
