Bonus XP Weekend!; 12-Mar-2010

The Bonus XP Weekend has now started! The next time you log into the game, your bonus XP modifier will come into effect. The modifier will begin at 2.7 times the usual rate of XP you would earn from standard training activities, and will slowly decrease down to 1.1 times over the course of 10 hours of in-game time (the modifier will not decrease while you are logged out or in the lobby).

A small ‘XP+’ button has been added to the interface on the left of the minimap, which will track how much extra XP you are racking up over the course of each session and what your current XP modifier is. The XP modifier will be in effect from now until approximately 12pm (GMT/forum time) on Monday (or the equivalent local time for your country; see this Time Conversion Thread if you’re unsure what that is).

To get a clearer idea of what actions will and will not be modified by the Bonus XP Weekend, and for more information in general, please read this developer blog and this forum thread.

Enjoy!

wow that thread is ridiculous.

Sure they made a mistake, it's Jagex so you should have realy expected it anyway :P

But anyway there's people complaining as if they've lost out, example:

Guess i'll be stuck at lvl 94 Herblore intead of getting Overloads.

I sincerely hope that jagex restores somehow that 30% of lost exp. I spent a lot of money on that :|

If he spent alot of money with the double xp he should be greatful he didn't have to spend twice as much like a lot of other people had to.

THANKS ALOT JAGEX! I PUT OVER A WEEK OF HARD WORK INTO GETING CHARMS FOR 89 SUMMONING AND NOW BECAUSE OF YOUR STUFF UP ALL MY HARD WORK HAS GONE TO WASTE! i am now stuck at 87 summoning far from my goal... verry verry annoyed with this stuff up...

He even claims it's hard work and acts as if he's been cheated out even though he's still having to collect less charms and spend less money than people have had to previously. meh.

Wow lol, I really hope they decide to leave this as a one off. Kinda glad they messed the maths up and it cut the time down, even with the time given it already had a massive impact on summoning and a pretty big one on herblore, considering it's a single day.

It's cost me 20 mill so far just to maintain my herblore rank over a 12 hour period (which has dropped a few places since my training yesterday). I hate how they try to justify this by saying it benefits everyone because high levels can use it to increase their rank, it's complete bs lol. It only benefits people that have lower levels in skills by giving them access to the higher level content faster, or people that are willing to fork out tens/hundreds of millions on a single weekend (of which I'd guess a good chunk would be price manipulation clan leaders). I'm now out 20m and my herblore rank has still dropped, didn't check summoning, but I wouldn't imagine that my rank has risen in that either.

I don't support bonus xp weekend but if they have another one of these i'm gonna stack up on blue charms from tds, i already have 1.5k of them so i'll work on getting 3-5k blues.

IMO summon should of been excluded from the event -.-.
