Bonus XP Weekend – 11th to 13th March

We’re happy to announce that an extended Bonus XP Weekend will be running from the 11th to 13th March 2011! Members should stock up on planks, potion ingredients, raw materials and more in preparation to get the most out of the three days.

Once the Bonus XP Weekend begins on Friday 11th March, the XP modifier will come into effect for all members. The modifier will begin at x2.7 the rate of XP you would earn from standard training activities, and will drop to a new multiplier every 30 minutes of game time. The table below should help with any preparations you want to make:
Game time (mins) XP Multiplier
Up to 30 x 2.7
30-60 x 2.55
60-90 x 2.4
90-120 x 2.25
120-150 x 2.1
150-180 x 2.0
180-210 x 1.9
210-240 x 1.8
240-270 x 1.7
270-300 x 1.6
300-330 x 1.5
330-360 x 1.45
360-390 x 1.4
390-420 x 1.35
420-450 x 1.3
450-480 x 1.25
480-510 x 1.2
510-540 x 1.175
540-570 x 1.15
570-600 x 1.125
600+ x 1.1

The ‘XP’ button will change to ‘XP+’ when the weekend begins, tracking how much XP you rack up over the course of the weekend, and it will have a tooltip to show you what your current XP modifier is.

Summoning XP will be boosted by a set percentage of 10% over the course of the four days; all other skills will follow the schedule noted in the table above.

To get a clearer idea of what actions will and will not be modified by the Bonus XP Weekend, and for more information in general, please read this developer blog.

Time to work on herblore!

Shooting for 80-ish!

Got my herblore supplies 94 here I come

Like almost everyone I'll be doing some herblore
Aiming atleast 88

Don't know why they kept this 10% more xp for summon...

Personally I will probably be training mining, agility or fishing during the weekend and checking the health on some higher level trees, planting mages and palms which I already have banked for the first few minutes of dblxp than probably just planting more mages/palms for later on, I know they take awhile to grow but I gotta use some of them sometime.. have a bunch saved up. Dblxp weekends for me are now about knocking out some grind levels since I have all buyables done. I could work on my 20m in all goal but don't really see the point before I have all 99's, I know it would be cheaper in the end but gp has never been an issue for me so I don't mind.

I'll probably do some herblore as well first, and then the rest of my time will do cooking.

I might do my highest dung floors first and then the rest of the weekend just thieve, not sure yet either way majority of the weekend i'll be thieving

YAY! Unfortunately almost all my money is invested in 99 Magic & 90 Smithing so this absolute HORRIBLE timing for me.
I will buy as many herblore levels as I can, sold some of my things like Dragon Hatchet & Armadyl Helmet.

Time to get some hardcore farming exp. Mage run every 8 hours at max exp, Palms every 14 at max exp, and calquats every 24 at max exp, should get me around 2m farming exp very fast and not too expensive. Then Sunday afternoon I'll no life the rest of my counter on an as of yet undecided skill. Possibly some dunge or rc.

Time to merch! All buy as much herbs as you can :p
