    @AuriDUL this should have been fixed for Chapter 6 that is live now from what I have been told.

I've done some troubleshooting.

Test Round 1.

Mode: Grind.

I received 1'209 Chapter XP Points (baseline: 1'008 + 20% bonus: 201).

  • My ToW Rank progress increased by 1'209 XP points.
  • My ToW Dog Tag progress increased by 1'008 XP points.

Test Round 2.

Mode: Conquest.

Received 9'832 Chapter XP Points (baseline: 8'194 + 20% bonus: 1'638).

  • My ToW Rank progress has increased by 9'832 XP points.
  • My ToW Dog Tag progress has increased by 8'194 XP points.

Test Round 3.

Mode: Conquest.

Received 7'584 Chapter XP Points (baseline: 6'320 + 20% bonus: 1'264).

  • My ToW Rank progress has increased by 7'584 XP points.
  • My ToW Dog Tag progress has increased by 6'320 XP points.

Test Round 4.

Mode: Conquest.

Received 10'899 Chapter XP Points (baseline: 9'083 + 20% bonus: 1'816).

  • My ToW Rank progress has increased by 10'899 XP points.
  • My ToW Dog Tag progress has increased by 9'083 XP points.

It must be noted that all the above Chapter XP points came from regular XP. I dind't complete any ToW- and/or special-assignments in those test rounds.

In ALL cases, the 20% Chapter XP bonus was not applied to the ToW Dog Tag progression.

Edit 1: Added two more troubleshooting cases.

Edit 2: Added a screenshot for reference.

    Hi @EA_Atic,

    Just want to tag you in this issue so that you are aware of it.

    I've played 10+ more matches and earned lots of Chapter XP from the regular XP. I can confirm that the 20% Chapter XP Boost (which comes from the Chapter 5 Premium Pack) does _not_ apply to the ToW Dog Tag progression.

    Given that those Dog Tags are part of the Chapter 5 rewards and they progress using Chapter XP, I would expect the 20% Chapter XP Bonus apply to their progression too.

    Thanks.

    Best regards,
    AuriDUL

      Thanks for the very in-depth detailed post! 🙂 @AuriDUL 

      I have passed this along to the team and they are taking a look. I can't promise any change to it.

        @EA_Atic, I just tested this out too and my 20% bonus XP is not added to the dog tag OR my rank. All I did for a round was complete a node worth 12,000 XP, so at the least I should have received 12,000+2,400 XP - which is what the game is telling me. But my actual score, both for my rank AND dog tag, only increased by just over 12,000 XP.

        I literally purchased the booster pack at the start of this chapter to be able to get the golden dog tag. But now at the end of the chapter I find out that I probably haven't recieved any bonus XP at all - and I'm about to miss out on the dog tag.
