NOTE: Originally, Double XP was scheduled to run through January 2nd. Apparently it’s now January 3rd.
From Isulith on the Official EQ2 Forums:
This coming weekend, from 12:01 AM PST on Friday, December 30th and ending at 11:59 PM PST on Tuesday, January 3rd, EverQuest II will be running a Double XP promotion (+100% XP). Take advantage of these four days and watch those XP bars fill up!
The bonus applies to AA, tradeskill, and adventure experience gained this weekend. Our French, German, Japanese and Test servers will also be enjoying the increase in XP gain.
Happy New Year and happy adventuring!

Most of us knew this already, but I posted some math details about these ‘double’ bonus times to the official forum: http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=512851
The short version is that if you’re using the slider to grind AA, you’re getting more than double. But again, I think most of us figured that out the first time we heard about someone grinding 300 AAs in a couple of days.
@Claviarm
It’s definitely WAY more than double, agreed. But I like it, saves so much boredom grinding aa.
Get your shit together Sony. You messed up the double xp by one day.
