View Full Version : Bonus XP weekend
scottish
12-03-2010, 12:09 PM
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 the 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 the forum thread.
Enjoy!

Have fun :P

Will be on later. Constructing up to 70 or 75. Then Summoning until I run out of the charms I want to use. Then runecrafting until I get bored.

Hopefully by the looks of things they are turning this into a regular event, Firemaking time (when i can be bothered)
Been doing some construction. Gone from 60 to 65. Probably going to do it to 75 and sell whatevedr planks I have left. Problem is I'm going to struggle getting tertiaries for summoning I think?
Yeah its def gonna take you awhile to get the tertiaries for summoning id suggest putting in your offer now so it can
hopefully buy while you do Con.
I've also been doing Con got 80-81 so far :P
i think i have enough planks for like 89 or 90 i hope
Sorry for double posting but was just curious what all your EXP Modifiers are at - Currently mine is at 1.7 :(

After like 15-17 mins it drops from 2.7 to 2.5 but stays at 2.5 for 45 min :P
They mesed it up according to a MOD but wasn't going to update and sort it due to the fact it had already started
^ Yeah i read that on the forums aswell

Im at 1.1 lol have been since last night.
yerrr i havnt been playing much plus construction bores me so i go on do 100k exp then log
even though its really fast just borin :P
I did 60 - 75 comstruction. Took me down to 1.9 I think after I'd done that. Then a little summoning, 4 - 36 (never done summoning before). That took me to 1.7. I've done a little runecrafting now and am on 1.5.

Once a month I THINK. They are looking to bringit to non-members. I hope they don't - will make them more money and give us an advantage :D

2-4 times per year at most.

I don't want it to be - just remember someone saying about it.
