I am trying to figure out how long the Stones of Experience will be usable for.

This link, http://www.ddo.com/stoneofexperience, says the stones will be around at least until August 20th.

I have seen posts on the forum that say August 15th.

I have seen posts on the forum that say when Update 15 comes out in August.

Has anything official been posted anywhere? It would be nice to know how long they will be usable for.

I took a look at the description on the stone and it says:

"This stone will expire and disappear when DDO's Update 15 is launched in August, 2012"

This is not overly helpful as I just made 19 and want to hit 20 with this toon, TR him (will be his third life) and get him to 8 to use the stone before it expires. So I am trying to figure out how hard I have to push.

I don't suppose that there have been any announcements concerning the Update 15 date in August?

I'd say TR and hit 8 again by August 10th just to be safe. I'm just guessing here but with all the major repairs they need to do with U14...I have a feeling U15 might come out a few days later than planned.

i had asked this in a different post before and a dev answered that on the date(probably 20th of august) they will get deleted from inventory.

Thanks everyone for the input. I think I can make it by the end of July but it sounds like I have a little wiggle room if I can't. I have heard that U14 Patch 2 is scheduled for Wednesday 7/25 (though who knows if that is really true) so the 10th of August does seem pretty safe.

Im hoping that in order to avoid another OMG W>T>F> moment that they decide to hold 15 til they get it right.

Aim for early august, expect middle and hope for late if you must. :-)
At least you'll have a few days advance warning before they vanish to do a final rush if really needed. But doesn't sound like you'll get close to the deadline.
