Did they Extend the Stupid Double XP also

[Laerien]

Well I understand there can be reason to toggle the xp gain off, I'm not against.

However, the fact that every mmo I've played do these double xp bonuses in events and festivals (very welcomed by the community), the items that make players get more xp are very popular, the custom (pirate) servers of many of these mmos are well know for double or even 10x the xp, etc.

Imo it seems that the majority (not everyone) want to gain more xp and not less. So implement resources on this maybe is not a good idea.

By other way, I dont believe the "Turbine conspiration theory", like they want us reaching the level cap asap to make us spend tps tuning our LI's or making us to start new chars to spend tps with. They want us playing the game and buying questpacks, expansions, etc. and that won't work with a parked player.

Keep doing double xp bonuses but don't make them common.

I wish XP bonuses were optional. Sometimes I want to bust out some leveling and sometimes I want the slow and easy route.

I'm loving the xp, with skirms alone i got my LM from 35 to 55 so far...and i get a big kick out of seeing her with 10 virtues at zero and the rest at like 2! haha I'll have a busy summer deeding thats for sure! She'll be my 7th 75 so bypassing content I've done 6 times already is a real treat (though, I did only do tuck and mischief over and over, and over, and over)

I don't know what the problem with leveling too fast for the content is, the only thing you lose from doing lower level quests is xp so it's a wash there. There's barely any challenge in landscape content as it is, so I don't see that being much of a problem either.

I wonder how many complaint posts will start when the double XP STOP.. Probably a few players started playing lotro with the festival, are kind of used to double xp, and wham, leveling slowed abominably

OK, lets dissect this, shall we.

Name says it all......

Fine, you don't like extra xp. Why?

Your wrong for those that like the journey not the destination I wont pay for something just because they try to force me to skip past what I want to do. This Game does not start at end game.

That makes sense, you want to do the quests, because it's the journey that is important, not how fast you get to your destination.

What prevents you to do grey quests?

So the quest still would remain the same quest, only the fighting "challenge" would be lessened.

They are MIND NUMBING BORRING

So wait, you refuse to do quests, because they are boring? That doesn't appear to be a contradiction?

Not trying to disagree with you. Just reminding you that what you say on the internets is a permanent thing.

Personally I would rather there are ZERO levels. You go through the content, earn rep, buy your skills that way. Take your time, do your quests, no level disparity between players. Earn equipment, and skills, and traits by going through the content, and you can start in any area you wish.

There is already that precedent in LOTRO. It's called Monster Play.

I agree with Nymphonic, to have the choice would be great, especially for those of us with lifetime accounts who have chronic altitis - and therefore almost always have rest xp.

But for those wanting to know - the double xp is now off.

[Celestrata]

Indeed. To answer the question, no, the double experience has been disabled.

And with that answer given, closing this thread out.
