Thread: Is the double xp for combat only? Is there new xp?

So I'm doing the FS quests for crafting since I haven't acquired a 12 pt suit yet....


I log on today to knock out some xp for conversion since there's the bonus to xp this week, and what do I find?


I'm getting the normal amount of crafting xp. I don't remember seeing any differentiating between combat xp and crafting xp in Tiggs' initial announcement, so I'm wondering if anyone knows what's going on with it.

Thanks for the info... I'll try to get someone's attention on this.

That is odd.. here is my text from my other thread, I finished 450,000 FS xp yesterday no problem.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yesterday I planned on finishing up my FS XP for box #4 (450,000 FS xp) with the new 2x bonus.

Pre-CU 2x Bonus it took 120,000xp to convert to 24,000 FS Crafting xp.

This week only
essentially 120,000xp is gained from 60,000xp this converts to 24,000FS Xp x2 = 48,000FS Xp.

So 60,000WeaponCraftingXP=48,000FS Xp
That is 1.25 Craftingxp = 1 FS XP

When you convert from the slider while capped it says 24000 FS xp gained but if you look at your bar it doubles it to 48000. Needless to say I was pretty dang happy that it took me 1/4 of the time instead of 1/2.

Let's keep it between you and me, but that is because you are experiencing double xp week on your FS xp gain.

Yes, that was the whole point of my post. Many others might not have thought of the 2x taken into account with the FS conversion, especially since it shows 24000, but really is 48000.
