Ring in the New Year with Double Experience – Dec 30~Jan 1

From EverQuest2.com:

Ring in 2013 with Double Experience in EverQuest II! Starting Sunday, December 30, 2012 @ 12:01am PST until Tuesday, January 1, 2013 @ 11:59pm PST, we’re offering Double Experience in EverQuest II! Take advantage of this limited time offer and watch those XP bars fill up!

Double Guild XP?

Our understanding is that this will affect Adventure XP, AA XP, and Tradeskill XP, but probably not Guild XP. We’ll update if we get clarification on this!

Comment: We’re glad to see the usage of 12:01 and 11:59 for the start and stop times, as this greatly avoids confusion for countries (USA, etc. that use 12-hour time).

Double XP Easter Weekend

Written by Feldon on . Posted in Game Updates & Maintenance

A detail we missed in the April Update:

Spring Fever
Over the Easter holiday, we will have some fun Spring items for sale in the marketplace as well as some pretty big SOE holiday promotions. Everyone will get to enjoy double experience over the weekend too!

If you’re short on AA (you’ll need 280 AAs before you can start leveling to 91 and 92), this looks like a good time.

Double XP Back, Runs Through Jan 4th @ 9am PST

Written by Feldon on . Posted in Live Events

From Isulith on the EQ2 Facebook page:

On Thursday, 12/29/11 we announced a Bonus Experience Weekend from December 30th – January 3rd. This was an error on our part; it was supposed to end on January 2nd. Because of our mistake, we are extending the Double XP until January 4th at 9:00 AM PST. We greatly apologize for the inconvenience and understand your frustrations. The Double XP is live again so go out there and get adventuring!

   

Double XP Abruptly Ends Day Early

Written by Feldon on . Posted in Live Events

On December 21st, SmokeJumper announced a Double XP weekend from December 30th through January 2nd. On December 30th, Isulith updated this announcement to include January 3rd, extending the event to 5 days. So it was a surprise to us to login this morning and find that Double XP has ended. Perhaps the server hamsters did not receive the updated schedule. Hopefully, we can get an extra day added at some point.

This is being discussed on the EQ2 Forums

UPDATE: Double XP has been extended until January 4th @ 9am.
