Imprimatures Distribution Time Reduction (Not KIs)

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping someone can help me solve a strange puzzle.

I have 3 characters, and they all have exactly the same coalition ranks. None of them have the Bronze, Silver, or Gold Shovel Cordon key items.

However, one character (Warviper) is recharging imprimaturs noticeably faster than the other two — by roughly 3 more imprimaturs per 24 hours (and its not because im hitting the cap. If I check after ½ a day, i have 1 or 2 more imprimatures recharged than on the other 2 chars)

This has really confused me, because as far as I know, the only thing that affects imprimatur recharge time is the Shovel Cordon KIs.

Is there any other mechanic, key item, or system (old or new) that can reduce imprimatur recharge time? Maybe something I’m overlooking that one character could have but the others don’t?

Thanks in advance for any input — I’d really appreciate help figuring this out! ?

Wasn’t that drastic for me but I just finished my coalitions and toons would occasionally get off from each other despite doing the same ones at the same time.

If you're doing them at different times, it may be the way imprims are distributed that's causing it, they're not "built up" over time, they just get distributed at specific, fixed times so if your main is uncapping them just before that time and your alts are still waiting, that may be it? Otherwise, idk :shrug:

Did all 3 chars pick up their first imprim at the same time?

I remember imprims working the same way as Tesaran said: theyre just distributed at X intervals. If you cap out, the timer doesnt stop, it just rolls over to the next one.

That doesnt explain why one char would get imprims faster though. You're saying all 3 chars will zero out, then a couple hours later one char will be +1 on the others, a couple hours later they'll be +2 on the others, and so on?

Exacly as you wrote.
3 chars pick up their first imprim at the same time
3 chars will zero out, then a couple hours later one char will be +1 on the others, a couple hours later they'll be +2 on the others

Thats whats having me baffled.
