Are all exp coupons additive?

I've recently heard that special coupons like 1.5 coupons, 2x coupons or event 2x aren't additive, and is multiplicative instead. Is this true? I thought all exp coupons were just additive.
example: Exp card gives x amount of exp + event exp + monster exp = y exp
This is always true right?

If it is true, does that mean I should save my exp coupons for a 2x event so that I'll get more exp in the end? Or would it not matter?

[quote=elufu]To elaborate, they're under a separate line under "buff exp", which the daily Arnello daily quest exp buff is categorised into it as well.

Use-able coups (i.e. Hot time rewards, Attendance Coups, Star Planet Exp Coups), event and CS coups are multiplicative to each other, with the one condition that you may not use more than one of each type at the same time.

and to answer the OP, it wouldn't matter (because the only exp coup that you can currently obtain and control is the PB buff, otherwise the daily arnello training is a buff rewarded without a useable).[/quote]

Can use this [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lupTUCYG2ZRzE_rApz5BSWeQ5YXvSycnT6x-vWp4E0w]link[/url] to see your EXP rates (keep in mind combo doesn't give extra bonus EXP anymore, should change it).
HS, Skill EXP (like Showdown), Event, Coupon, Box Ticket, Cash Shop = multiplicative
EXP Pendants, Potions, Link Skills, Character Card, Runes = additive
Also keep in mind 3x EXP cash shop coupons don't stack with 2x events.
Example: 2x Event * 2x Coupon * 2x Buff * 1.5x HS * 1.4x Showdown + 2x Rune + 0.6x Pendants + 0.3x Link/Card + 0.2x Potions = 19.9x * Base EXP = EXP per kill
To answer your question, yes it does matter and it is better to save it for events.
@elufu: People farm 2x coupons from Star Planet.
