Is it safe to assume that from now on... we'll know what the weekend events will be on Thursdays and not late Tuesday/early Wednesday?

Just seems like this will be the normal standard from now on.

You didn't check the log in screen before making this thread, did you? It's still Wednesday in my timezone, and the announcement is up.

What's the use of a double cap xp weekend anyway? Skill points can be bought and Survivor can be obtained way faster and safer (Ele bosses aren't really Survivor-friendly).

That's kind of what I thought and if you don't care or want Survivor then it's really just woohoo double xp if you cap.

Double XP to add to that XP title....no, that wont work.

Maybe you can use the extra xp to gain a lvl or 2...nooo, max is 20 and will be achieved long before capping more than a few elites.

Hmm, oh, I know, you can use that extra XP to get more skill points to buy more consumables to sell to more ub groups heading to fow. Well, that doesn't really make sense because you're using skill points when buying sigs and you gain xp way faster doing a fow run than any skill capping.

Huh, I have no idea what the benefit of double xp is. Would someone please enlighten me?

Its not really that good for survivors.

Its actually really good for skill cappers, since when you go for that title, the limiting factor often isn't money, but skill points.

Yeah, kind of a bummer weekend but we've had good pve event weekends lately (st. patrick's day / easter / gaile grey sendoff / anniversary) that I figured this weekend was gonna be a bust. That's why I agreed to work

Kilroy is fun, but can get boring. After my first Legendary Survivor with Kilroy, the next one will have to do something else instead. So it is an good event for me, even though I rather wanted double reputation to finish those on my main.

Yeah same... 1204 unspent with Legendary Skill Hunter done. At least I could transfer to my survivor but I can't be assed getting him Leg. Skill hunter. Crazy, but not crazy enough to do it again.

So it means another weekend spent doing the usual stuff.
