I have just finished the busting book. And now after it i can´t bust anyone. I think something is wrong.

People i have had no problem busting before the book is now impossible. Yesterday i tried a lvl 8 person who was doing time for stealing sweets but failed.

FWIW Harley also mentioned he struggled a LOT immediately after his book ended. I assume the amount of busting you did ramped up 'regular' difficulty for you to bust someone, so when you stopped using the book pretty much everything is left at 0%. Doubt it's a bug, went away after a day or less iirc.

Yep that sounds right, the book would allow you to do more busting, so as soon as it wears off those extra busts you did previously would make it much harder attempting immediately afterwards. It'd take 2-3 days.

Kinda defeats the purpose of the book. Things should go to normal after the book is done?

the fatigue kicks in, i get it;

but you are practically lowering the chances well below standards for 2-3 days because the fatigue is so high (granted, not a game breaker by any means, but a bug in my opinion nonetheless)

Things are back to normal. Imagine moving to a faction where the booster cooldown is 39hrs. You use FHCs until your booster cooldown is 42hrs. Then you go back to a regular 24hr cooldown. Things are back to 'normal', but instead of waiting 6hrs you have to wait 18hrs before you can use another FHC.

So, you're saying that "Large jail bust & escape boost for 31 days." means both an increase in busting success and busting CD for the duration of the book? Maybe the book's effect should be rephrased to reduce the number of bug reports? Because it certainly doesn't *feel* right to have to wait 1-3 days after finishing the book to be able to bust someone again (I'd have made a bug report too, but I did a search first, and the more recent report referred to this one).
