No XP? It’s Probably Cooldown. Read This

Many testers wonder why they’re not getting XP after completing tasks.
The answer is usually simple: you’re still in cooldown.
This guide breaks down the cooldown durations and task limits so you can optimize your daily flow and avoid wasting actions that give no XP.
