I managed to get 12, pushed me just over 1 million XP on my LS candidate. Shaved about 12 days off my estimated completion time.

0. No interest in skill hunter title. Most of the elites I want and can reach I already have.

My main char already has Legendary Elite Skill Hunter.

As for me, I was at a funeral this weekend out of state.

1. But it wasn't because of the double cap weekend (I didn't even know about it, actually). I just had to get WoH since Izzy decided it should be retardedly good.

extra exp = pointless for everything except survivor and there's enough ways to go about that besides this

...Oops. That would be a zero for me. Oh well; experience isn't all that important for my characters, anyway.

0, as others have said, got them all already. The first thing I do when making new characters is to kill them so I won't be tempted to go for survivor. Also, my other characters have the elites they need so no need for any of it.

4, I think. I got a few Paragon ones. I didn't need the exp. pts. :-\

We need better weekend events. I remember that thread they had asking for suggestions. Surely all of our suggestions didn't suck.

I got 113 elites capped, and was capping right up until midnight! I ran out of money, but still had some extra sigs that I didn't get to use.

I worked on the skills that were fast and easy to cap, and will save the slower/harder ones for when I'm not rushing.

Don't even get me started. I hate fkin random bosses, it's the most retarded part of the game. I dunno how much time I wasted on clearing stupid areas just to realize the boss I need didnt spawn. And the best thing is Mineral springs, doesnt matter if I go left or right, It's always the last boss that I need :O

37 elites capped, but I couldn't do as much as I wanted. I even managed to get 2 greens in the process (though AoE did seems to reduce the level of drops).I was looking for this we and was not disappointed! Earning double XP almost gave me back half of the skill points used!

It's amazing how certain elites are easy to cap, like in 2 to 4 minutes with full herohench party. The Still Hunter title should not be so tough to get, only thing is to get the money!

None, as said before xp is meaningless in this game unless you're trying for LS.

None - didn't realize it was a double XP weekend. Usually there are enough complaints in the forums about a "worthless" weekend that I notice it and cap some skills - no such complaints this time so I missed it. Normally I try for 20 or so skills. I'm not in a hurry for LSH, I just want it on my main before GW2 and I think I lack a little over 50 skills. More than enough time.

Ah well, no real need for the experience, though I like big numbers even where no title exists. This weekend wasn't a waste, finished filling a hero handbook on my main and did 6 main EOTN quests on a non-main character (I, personally, had a blast with the non-main - the difference between a Dervish (my main) and an echo SS necro adds some nice variance in my play style). I'll get it on the next weekend I guess.

Besides, EXP points aren't *entirely* pointless as we now have consumables that use skill points - though I guess I got enough through quests to last me for some time. I wish they had *some* merchant value as I would get rid of some of mine and wouldn't mind converting Skill Points into some amount of gold - even if it wasn't much. I don't like giving things away (well, not really true - I don't like giving something away that is a crutch to new players and screws them in the long term, nor do I like giving things to established characters that do not need charity - giving something that truly helps new players is quite good when I find them) and I can't bring myself to dragging them to the trash bin.

*sigh*, now if they would do another double SS/LB or double EOTN faction points I will be a happy camper. But given how long it has been since the double SS/LB weekend I'm not holding my breath. Of course, given my wonderful luck they will pick one of the very few weekends I'm gone

Went from Survivor to Legendary Survivor, so I'd say around 80. Will check later the exact value.
