Problem: If I get a hunt from a priest, it states: You gain double xp from _____ (fill in type of monster) and gain 4 (or 7) Sunspear points per ____ (type of monster). YOU DON'T GET DOUBLE XP!!!

Am I the first/only one who noticed? Or am I plain stupid and missed something?

And YES: I tested this with several chars and in different ways, otherwise I woudn't bother you with it.

Anyone?

Wow, apparently nobody cares. This is really more of a bug, though, not an idea for a game change. You should report this to a-net directly.

The XP that pops up on the screen when you have a hunt and when you don't stays the same, but I don't know about XP that you actually gain. Check your XP total, kill something, and then check it again.

No, I've seen no change before and after getting the blessings and my party size was the same.

I've noticed the same thing - killing an elemental with an elemental blessing gets me the same xp I got for killing an elemental w/out an elemental blessing (in the same party, same instance.)

As I'm working through NF on my 2mil+ xp ranger, the lack of extra xp hasn't bothered me. The Sunspear and Lightbringer point rewards all seem to work as stated, and that was what I cared about.

Good call OP!

I'm a Sunspear Castellan and my brother is not. When he has a bounty or blessing and I do not, we both get the same xp for all kills.

I also do not get double XP from Hunts, it's been that way for at least 3 weeks for me. Unfortunately I'm rank 8 now and can't get more blessings to test anything, but I really wished I was getting double XP for killing stuff as part of a Hunt when I had death penalty!

It's also super annoying when you have a new character and you're trying to get to level 20 before you leave Istan.

Submit it to Anet. This should get fixed.

I just quickly jumped into the game and checked the totals and I can verify that you *do not* get double XP in any manner for the kills you get based on your total xp.

ANet, I command you to fix this at once.
