The 8 Hour Skill Bonus is a consumable skill boost item that provides a single character with a 20 percent increase in the amount of skill points and bridge officer skill points gained during play for a period of eight hours. Once acquired the item will remain unconsumed until activated, at which point the timer begins. If the character logs off while the skill boost item is active, the timer will pause.
Only one skill bonus can be active at a time, to activate another bonus, you must wait for the currently active timer to expire.
