Workout Xp in TOW 2023 free ride mode

General Discussion

Why is Zwift short changing me XP during TOW 2023 free ride whike engaged in a workout

2

Are you not getting any bonus xp at all? You only get the bonus the first time that you do each of the current stage’s routes.

4

You only get double xp in an event, not while free riding the routes… you just get credit for completing the stage

5

I don’t think that’s correct.

6

I did Eastern Eight as a free ride the other day and got double XP

7

Didnt work for me?

8

Seems like there’s a bug still there then.

I’m never 100% sure but my understanding of XP and TOW double XP is as follows:

Normal XP - you don’t get both miles/km XP and workout XP at the same time, you only get workout XP. Why would this be any different for TOW double XP.

If you complete a workout and then go into free ride don’t you get workout XP until workout is finished and then km/miles XP until you stop riding. Wouldn’t TOW XP be the same, double workout XP until workout finishes and then double miles/km XP until the TOW route is completed and then single km/miles XP until you stop riding?

Edit: corrected

Thanks Guys ,

I cant believe the amount of replies :sob:, I have not checked XP recently , my first TOW ride was 2 weeks back , Eastern Eight , 52km , I did as a free ride with a workout , I got some 2X XP before
I began workout , I was able to verify , did get some workout xp for completion of stars , at the end i did calculation i was no where near 2000 xp for the route.
I can confirm that no 2x XP if you wonder of course , etc like the Lama video a few weeks back , you still get 2x XP for not finishing route , if pace partner is on route your ok as well for 2x XP .
I haven’t checked 2x XP for TOW free ride with a workout , will do the maths on the next one , in the discussion comments , it has been attended to , hehe :smile:.
Thanks guys for the comments

I have performed a follow up test , measuring xp throughout the 48km ride , won’t bore you and will get to theft of xp .
48km ride total , route was Watopia Figure 8 approx 30km , route completed , got green tick , started workout after 15min .
30km at 40xp (2x XP TOW route ) = 1200 xp
18km at 20 xp (1x XP standard ) = 360 xp
Completion of Workout = a few hundred xp
Completed 48km = 1204 xp
I could have got 1200 xp for just riding 30km Figure 8 without workout , as a minimum I should accumulated 1600 xp without workout , add workout stars into the mix a minimum of 1800 - 2000 xp is entitled .
A theft of at least 700xp , owe up Zwift :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: .
Zwift you owe us xp .
