Chariot, Empress, and Emperor Bands

To date, recharging these items required that adventurers call upon guard NPCs located within designated conquest areas and towns. Depending on their current job level, however, adventurers may find these areas to be a considerable time and distance away from their current base of operation. To address this inconvenience, West Aht Urhgan and Past Vana'diel are scheduled to be added to the list of rechargeable locations for the bands. The price of the service in these new locations will be consistent with that of existing areas.

To activate this ring you:
Put in on your finger (EQUIPMENT)
then, after the 15 second count down
Go to ITEMS, click on the ring,
and USE the ring on yourself!

This activates the ring!!!!
and an EXP symbol appears at the top of the screen ... you can check the ring timers by looking at the ring in ITEMS or EQUIPMENT.

After 7 uses you can turn have it recharged by your nations Conquest/signet NPC.

This is fine for newbies starting the game, who don't want to wait for the Empress Band, and need to gain xp fast and want an easier way to work up to Empress band. However for high lvls that go from lvl's 10+ you really need empress band. Parties will go by a lot faster if you can get more experience over time than in short 90 minute bursts.
how it works

The "maximum bonus" is referring to the extra EXP added to tur normal amount. lets u gain 200 normally and with a band u gain 300. the bonus u earned is the extra 100. once u total up to 500/1000 bonus exp, it wears.

This means you can get 500 exp per charge 3500 exp max per conquest tally - rechargeable by guard after each tally.

I'm confused by the 'Maximum Bonus' stat. Does this mean that I can only gain up to 500 extra exp, and then it disappears, or does it cap at 500 no matter what..for one hour and half? Or is it something completely different.?


It lasts for 500 extra xp given, or 90 minutes, whiever happens first. In my opinion, the Empress band is a much better buy, 1000xp/180minutes, while still a 50% bonus to gains.

It depends on the situation. I got a Chariot Band because I wasn't leveling in PTs at the time. I was only leveling my NPC/farming on mobs that were EP to me. Since I got so little exp per mob, and wasn't there all that long, the Chariot Band was a much better choice for me, as I got more overall exp. I was getting like 70-80 exp/mob, and they were only EPs; pretty nice, in my books.

cheap exp!?

i dont think anyone should go experience out there w/o one,who cares if it wears off after accumulating 1000 EXP for the Empress Ring,it kicks ***!plus to recharge it,is a measly 100 CP;SE shoulda came up with it a long time ago!At least i'm glad we have it now...sure helps catching up on some hard earned EXP for that important LVL up!XD
no

u can only have one ring at a time.
Use both.
# Nov 07 2005 at 4:47 PM Rating: Decent
Hey, I was just curious if I can use this after I use an Empress Band. I've been using the Empress Band since it came out, for the most part, and it owns. If you could use that, get your xp, then use this ring next, that would own all. Well, for an extra 1.5k, it would, anyhow. ^_^ Thanks, all. One.

Unfortunately you can only have one of these rings at a time. Once you buy one, you can't buy the other unless you drop the one you have.

Only time you can use two is if you do the double ring trick

Whats the Double ring trick?
RE: Use both.
# Sep 25 2006 at 9:57 PM Rating: Default
I believe your only allowed to carry one XP bonus ring. The trick which you may have heard of is, when your charges hit 0/7 you can use 2 in one day.
1/7 > 0/7, and recharge 7/7 > 6/7. Not sure how else to explain that. Dont get charriot tho as its a waste of CP and free xp you can get off Empress.
