Question - Krono Auto Consume?

[Lord Sivion]

I was searching around for an answer to this. But, when you have Krono in your inventory on an All Access account with a payment method on file (IE Credit Card), will the Krono automatically be consumed when it's renewal time before payment is auto charged? Or do you always have to manually consume a Krono in game to use it?

You have to click the Krono.

Once clicked though it will apply next billing date over the other payment.

It does nothing when its in your inventory but sit there and look pretty. So you can give it away, sell it or consume it.

Thank you. This is what I needed to know!

I strongly recommend against automation consuming Krono. The Krono system is janky, and the "how long is left on my sub" isn't always accurate.

I always just waited until my hp and ac were basically zero on my SK because all prestige gear. I normally found out after pulling and insta wiping.

When my Krono time is up, I get booted if I have not logged off, which I always forget to anyways. So I find my guy booted or I see it happen and panic thinking , NOOOOOOOOO I get DP'd Banned. Then feel a touch of sadness, then try logging on and see.. OH..I am Silver. WHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
But I have found out why am I not hitting..oh I'm essentially naked too. HAHA.

I have found the "janky" is the way Krono were made to work.

When you use a Krono you get 30 days, come Feb with 28 days or any month with 31 days. You only get 30. So it only counts 30 days making the bill date hit different every month. This is how Krono are described - "adds 30 days"

But with credit card you get a "month". Doesn't matter if its short or long you get the full "month". The billing day never changes with a CC. If its the 10th of the month then it stays that, month after month.

Don't want to do that. Never wanted to do that. Just wanted to know if Krono will sit there until used.

Are you me? The first time it happened I was like "wtf why am I dying so fast" and continued to wipe 3 or 4 times before I figured it out.

This is most likely your best bet to knowing for sure.

Last time I remember doing it I had stayed in the lag pile overnight to get max buffage.. I went out to do a mission. Buffs? Check. Stat foods? Check. MA set? Check. Toons communicating? Check. PULL! Then instant wipe and WTF?
