NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

Just wanted to drop a line and ask if anyone knows when the next double XP weekend is going to be. It has to be comming up soon because they are usually about every six months. Probably sometime in the middle of Dec. just wanting to know so I can get my vacation lined up for that weekend. If any one has any info please let me know. I am hoping to get my 34 Tank and my 32 Troller to lvl50.

Thank You in advance.

RE: NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

The last couple of Double XP weekends, they didn't give a lot of notice beforehand....maybe a week or two at the most. The new issue is coming November, early Decemberish, and the Halloween event before that, so there really isn't a reason to have one. There will be big things that will attract players without offering the 2XP bone. And they don't do two events at the same time.

Currently playing:

Champion Server:
White Hot Flash lvl 50 Energy/Elec/Force Blaster (woo hoo!)
Unspoken Threat lvl 50 Ninja/DM/Soul Mastermind
Kid White Flash lvl 40 Elec/Energy Blaster
White Hot Knight lvl 45 Peacebringer
Ghost of BlueBeard lvl 32 Dark/Dark Scrapper
Mini Fridge 3000 lvl 33 Ice/Ice Blaster
Grim Watchman lvl 15 Warshade
Die Wolf-spinne lvl 20 Crab
Triumph Server:
Schwarzen Knight lvl 47 BS/Regen/Dark Scrapper (part of Alliance)
This-Guy lvl 11 Fire/Energy Blaster
Protector Server:
Daemon-seed lvl 37 Plant/Thorn Dominator
Major Discord lvl 15 AR/Traps Corruptor
Bossman Bot lvl 14 Thugs/FF Mastermind

RE: NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

Thank alot guys I really wasn't expecting a really good response to this. I think I am going to like being a part of this community.
The more that I think about it your right that there will be alot going on to bring in new gamers, such as the Christmas event comming up. If its anything like the Halloween event it will be awsome. This will be my first Christmas event since I am only a nine monther.

Thanks again all,

Etain Echraide (hero, Virtue), lvl 21 mag controller, plant/therm
One Man Vs. The Mob (hero, Virtue), lvl 11 sci blaster, nrg/nrg/fly/stealth

And double rewards right? Does that mean just influence or drops too? Either way, someone give me some advice on what the absolute best way to get cash is? TFs? Farming? Exemplaring to insanely low levels?

I worked very hard and IO slotted most of my heroes on just 16 million (+ the occasional good recipie drop profits), but now I am OUT and FLAT BROKE).

RE: NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

Jordan: you will get double xp/influence/prestige if your level 50 just plays as a lvl 50 (any debt you have accrued will work off quickly [at double the normal rate] since xp is awarded to lvl 50's when they have debt). If you want insane influence/prestige for a lower level toon, just play them in a decent farm mission. That is what I did with Enath who was only like level 25 last double experience weekend. I spent all my time saturday farming, and seriously enhanced the amount of influence he had to buy all those rare recipes and ingredients he needed. In 4 hours play I racked almost 5 million influence (of course spent it all at Wentworths in like 30 minutes LOL).

The way I have it set up, I use only my 50 for money and all other toons on the same server for prestige (they're all level 36 and below). I figure if I'm going to do something for money, it should always be Jordan because she's 50 and makes the most bang for the buck.

The thing that I'm still not clear on is if I make more exemped versus normally.

When exemped, you don't get X (exp.) (unless you have debt) instead of Y (inf.) in place of your normal X and Y rewards. When exemped, you get Y + the value of X converted into influence instead of your normal rewards. So exemp for maximum value.

So as a 50, it's the same no matter what I do then?

RE: NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

Well, the X (experience) that is converted into Y (influence) is doubled before it is converted, so you do get more. I do not know the exact conversion formula but I do know it is not a 1 for 1 conversion.

Aw.

Everyone else should have a stash of Red Bull, Twinkies and Doritoes on hand to make it through! NO SLEEP ALLOWED! ;)

I'll probably be on in the morning Friday until about 4pm. Sadly I won't be able to make it on Saturday or Sunday due to work and home duties. :(

RE: NEXT DOUBLE XP WEEKEND?

ok, well i already checked and i dont have any homework due on friday, so im staying home from school to get an early start on DXPW. :) i just finished my college apps (4.5/5 of them anyway), so i think i deserve a break...i guess. just nobody tell my mom im not really sick, hahahahaha

i will probably walk down to the store that day and get some snacks to last me through the weekend, i have until sunday morning. and, the computer at my dad's house is downstairs, so i can be up all night with music playing and not wake people up! dunno if that was a little too much info, but thats my plan for the weekend!
