Alliance Battle Bonus Weekend

Hopefully it'll be Luxon and Kurzick faction this time..

they dont specify wich faction is going to be doubled
i'm guessing it's for balthazar and the lux/kur faction

Great, AB will be even suckier this weekend, I hate double PvP reward weekends.

Gay. Do they ever have a double Kurzick/Luxon weekend, or just through the PVP part of it?

If they say its double AB, then it's probably gonna be double Balthazar and double Luxon/Kurzick Faction

Just in time I like this event (hopefully double kurz/luxon+balth as usual), and wtb double rare chest drops next weekend plz xD

Been doing a little AB this week, just because I felt like it. Another one of those 'at the right time' weekends. (Last one like that was 2x exp for using cap sigs when I was finishing up a LSH title)

My favourite.

Cool, I needed the extra amber. Z-keys are a bonus too.

Seems like they always do these right as my interest in AB is waining.

Although i am ready for an AB weekend - and need to work on my Faction title - I was kinda hoping for a PvE weekend event - oh well maybe next week

I really wish A.net would specify WHICH faction this bonus is applying too. Oh well, we will find out for certain in a few days.

Bah, I was hoping they'd have an event for double faction (Kurz/Luxon) some time soon - but I hate AB. Doubley so on double-faction weekends.

One would hope they mean at least Kurz/Lux faction as that is the main reason most people play AB

Kind of having deja vu here, didn't we have this weekend some time ago?

Didn't we just have a PVP weekend? I thought it alternated.

There was a double lux/kurz weekend a few months back, yeah.

Can't remember if it was double balth or not too.

As for weekends being a repeat, very few of them are something new, we have recycled most of the weekend ideas many times.

As for alternating, ab is more a function of pve than pvp really, as most people who say they pvp would never be speaking about ab, whereas it is 1 of the first areas many players got to kill their 1st fleshy opponent if they didnt start in prophecies

As long as the weekend isn't as lagtastic/delaytastic as prior AB weekends, I'm all over it.

AB and waiting, those 2 things go hand in hand. AB could be one of the more fun things for people to do but the waiting really does ruin it over time, waiting 10-15 timer resets to get into one battle, then have 3-4 people on your team having afk'd because of the wait so you get rolled 500-100 and get shite for faction only to have to wait another 10-15. Or even better you are deep in the oppositions end and you see across from you several guild teams, the outlook is bleak to pickup a win there as well

Yeah but with more people presumably playing since it's a double weekend maybe the regular problems faced in AB won't be so bad?

Minus mobbing, no one actually capping, etc. of course.
