Quote from link: "Who can I apply a Stone to
You can use a Stone on any character that is between level 8 and level 15. Share the Stones with a friend or use on a True Reincarnated Character or alt. Only one character per account, per game world, may gain the benefits of the Stone."
I must have missed the change allowing TRs to use a stone, thank you!

So if I have 2 characters on different servers, does this:
"Only one character per account, per game world, may gain the benefits of the Stone."
That each of those characters can get the stones?
Oh BTW, how time limited, is time limited? ( you knew someone was going to ask that sooner or later)
Where is my GREATBOW???
Is the number of stones received a per-game-world thing? What are the specifics on that?

The behavior is basically the same on each server, so long as you have a level 16 on that server. You couldn't for example get a stone on Orien if your level 16 character is on Sarlona.
You have until U15 in August to use them up. Use them or lose them, they vaporize from the game world once U15 is here.
Sorry for being dense, and for not checking it on Lamannia, but what does the Stone of Experience actually do? What does it confer? An additional XP bonus? Straight, raw XP that can be used for leveling up?
Nothing in the collateral shares what the stones actually do.
If you equip them on a hotbar to activate them how do you activate them on an alt? By definition you and your alt can't be online at the same time. Unless you and a guildie do a "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours?"

I have ultra rare wolf pup and now you are just giving them to everyone. Well, almost time to put the puppy down. You had a good run puppy but I cant have you if everyone else has you, looks like you are going to the farm upstate.
If I get to level 8, eat a stone, and then hit level 20 and TR that character, will I be able to eat another stone when I hit level 8 on that same character again?Only one character per account, per game world, may gain the benefits of the Stone.

You drag it to your hotbar (or to use on yourself double-click it in inventory) and then target an amenable 8th-15th level character, it will then give that character enough experience to level to 16. I assume the target character gets a dialogue asking if they want it and warning that they may only be the benefiary of one such stone per account per game world.
You then go to the mailbox and grab another, rinse and repeat.
Be sure to read the info page - those of you who may have tried the item in Beta may find slightly different behavior than you experienced before (e.g. target friend instead of trading it, only 1 "extra" stone sent via mail, use it on yourself via inventory)

Tolero, you might need to edit the page again, because it doesn't actually explain what the Stone of Experience *does*. It also doesn't fully explain the differences (if any) between using it on yourself versus using it on a friend. This is the kind of thing where you can head off a lot of future angst from wasted Stones if things are explained well upfront.
hi nice to have this is live too. tested both versions of it in the beta.
one question tho:
says this promotion last till 20th of August. does this mean u can only have the stones up to that date. or that also the stones you have won't work past that time. like, can i keep one for later use and use it past the 20th of August?
^^^^^^^^
This Side UP
Let me see if I got the jist of this. I got with any of my lvl20's alts to the said NPC. He will give me the stones. I can then place in account bank, my lvl 8-15 character can then grab, place in hotbar and target self. This will bring a dialog asking me if I'm sure I want to use it. Right? Now, if I wanted to level up, say, only to 15, but not 16 (due to XP tactics for a TRx3 toon) is that possible? Also, once that same character reaches lvl 16, will it open up the stone again for a different toon in the account? This rocks, btw, from someone who, due to work and family, has had time-to-play reduced to a few hours/week from a few hours/day back in '07
