    I was wondering if this is something that will happen in the future. I personally can't play much during the week due to work but don't want to fall behind all my friends.

    Do you think at some point there will be special double EXP events for weekends, or double EXP items for purchase in the cash shop?

    When I say double, I mean 4x instead of 2x.

    I am all for experience events, but the implementation of cards often kills servers and their player base's motivation to grind regularly. See: most other v.62's that have failed for this reason. I do hope there is something unique in the works in regards to experience or drop rate events opposed to just run of the mill "2x for X hours." Idk, I suppose we all have to wait and see :).

    I can say for certain that there will be no weekly or bi-weekly 2x events. The 2x exp coupon won't be re-added as they were removed by the administration in the first place.

    I don't think this will be happening. Maybe from certain events though. Sometimes Kim gives out HS in the fm too.

    Weekly is too often IMO, but it would be nice during seasonal events sometimes. Having more interesting ways to increase rates other than NX would be fun, too. (My favourite idea was the guild buffs that were implemented post-bb)

    Occasional exp events would be cool, live previously state during holidays and such.
    Exp coupons make the game too easy. I'd only change my opinion if they were say tripped in price.

    Absolutely not, this will never happen and it should never happen.
    The staff have purposely with good reason made it so the server is always on 2x exp and never more. When there are options to train at anything other than the regular EXP rate, people will get demotivated to train at anything other than the highest EXP rate. Always double EXP and triple EXP quests is enough EXP as it is. People are too used to getting spoonfed from other servers, but this is not other servers.

    Hey why not have it on a special day/holidays? Is that unacceptable? Because I don't think a 2x exp once every few months is spoonfeeding or is gonna make people extremely demotivated to train outside of 2x.

    Something similar was discussed a while ago when I was asked to implement fractional exp rates, where a potential rate increase of less than 1 (e.g. +0.5) during events is possible. We're hesitant to do drastic EXP events (and almost certainly not 2x every weekend) because unstable EXP rates cause too many fluctuations in the online count, with most players playing only during those EXP events. Likewise it also leads to an issue of fairness as due to scheduling and time zones, some players will always benefit more than others.

    2x might be too high. I think 1.5x should do. Not expecting many of these to occur, maybe only during certain times when it's seasonal period.

    There will not be weekly 2x events nor will we re-enable 2x exp coupons in the cash shop. Moving to denied. Keep your eyes peeled for the traditional exp events on special occasions.
