So I went to bed last night with a level 8, almost 9.
When I woke up, I was a level 6. I went ahead, gave the bug report, and went on with my day. It's new content, I get it, and I know the dev's are working hard on it.
I guess my question is this: How are you going to compensate players who are now running Eureka with lower stats, no longer getting the drops from fates they *should* be strong enough for? Yesterday, I was getting crystals and boxes constantly. Like, I ended the day with my gear and my weapon to the first tier.
Today? I got 16 boxes and 33 crystals, after 300 minutes, or roughly two full runs through Eureka. Fates I could hit yesterday, are too high level for me today. Parties I ran with yesterday, are now much higher level than me today, and I can't keep up with them.
Disclaimer: I mean no disrespect! I respect and understand that they're working hard on fixing the issue for each person, and I'm happy to wait!

At best you'll probably just get refunded the exp, not the levels. You'll level past your previous level and get a chunk of exp, not levels. They're certainly not going to refund your real losses (opportunity costs and time).

The few people I've seen say got their fix did indeed confirm they're just refunding you the lost experience points instead of levels themselves, so I wouldn't expect much beyond that. There's not really any way to compensate you for what you would have been able to do, short of maybe providing a day of game time or something similar. I'm still waiting on them to refund my level, but I'm just going to sit it out until they actually figure out the bug causing this.

Did you guys leave the instannce, get kicked from it or you logout when you're in it still? I heard it happens when the instance's timer runs out and you're still in there.

Those affected - are you avoiding eureka till you're restored? Or are you just re-levelling? I'm worried I'll be wasting my time if I go back in, but I really do enjoy that place.
