Booster not working in Heli PvE

I activated a 200% xp booster. Finished a PvE mision in my apache. Got 17k as usual. The 200% booster didn’t do anything and now i don’t even have it anymore. It has been used with no effect.

Only has an effective length of 30 minutes in a single battle.

match was 25

Maybe they are excluded from PvE matches like Wagers?

still took it from me

Then bug report it

How in the world did you get 17k RP from 25 minutes of playing PvE helicopters? x)

Do you have a screenshot of the post game report?

It looks like it was used normally, if you hover the question mark on the right side of the row labeled “Useful actions” you should see a more detailed list of the RP gained from different sources.

Yep, it was used normally. all the blue numbers are the amount of gained RP from the booster for that specific action.
So for the action at 3:44 you gained 262 RP as a base then your premium account gave you 524 RP extra (+200%), the booster gave you 524 RP extra (+200%) and your talisman gave you 262 RP (+100%) extra for a total of 1572 RP.

i get what you mean. Thing is, i can get the same reward, 17k, by just playing an extra 5 min

That’s awful efficiency, you never received a full 10 min reward as you kept dying.

I think that has to do with how simulator battles and enduring confrontation handle useful actions. every 15 minutes in sim you get bonus RP and SL if you stayed alive during that period (and even extra if you also landed within that period). I’m not entirely sure about the timeframe for Heli PvE but i think its either 15 or 30 minutes. So that is a separate thing from the booster (or any other action that gains you RP/SL). You were then just unlucky that the match you joined ended before the end of that time period that would have gained you that extra bonus.

I personally have the setting “join already active battles” turned off to avoid joining a game that is already halfway through when i play SIM and Heli PvE.

Eitherway, heli grind is pretty crap rn. The setting is disabled. I joined when the match started.
Would be very nice of gaijin to implement some better game modes or rewards for helis.
Thanks for the support

I don’t think i have EVER seen a Heli PvE match be shorter than at minimum an hour. That’s impressive to have it over in 25 minutes lol.

It’s the FnF helis. They can wipe out the battlefields really fast and with ace they can reload pretty fast. Get a load of those and the matches don’t take long at all.

I have admittedly not played PvE heli in like a year and a half or something and a LOT of new top rank helis has come out since then :P

I did one, trying to finish the stock grind for the teapache. I was barely getting any ground kills 🤣

It’s time for that gamemode to get replaced

Would be cool to get another variation of it. Maybe on the sinai map, attacking ISIS/taliban pozitions. :))
And of course far better rewards
