Labor Day Weekend Bonuses

Last year the double experience bonus was posted on Wednesday that it would start on that Friday.

Ahem... we're in Thursday here this year, and no announcement yet. *cough* ahem... *cough*

We are getting a bonus experience weekend for Labor Day this year right? LoL

They just haven't made the announced is all really.. Most of their holiday bonus XP times are set to go off automatically at certain times.. No human interaction required but the community manager still has to make the post.. so if we don't actually get bonus xp.. it'll shock the hell out of me..

We also have a new community manager so yeah.

Who?

And, there's the announcement. Bonuses start tomorrow!

I posted also in Veteran forums since not all of this is about TLP jk

But they need to explain what this part of the announcement means

gains up to 11!

It's a Spinal Tap reference...just means it's extra awesome.

On point for target demographic

Nigel Tufnel : The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
Marty DiBergi : Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi : I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel : Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

Maybe I can make the push to 60 and get my 3 box closer to max level on this exp bonus.

Same here. I'm just wandering through Norrath. Most of my crew 52 still.

Does the double xp apply to repeatable quests? Do pots stack on top?

How are you not 60 yet on mischief? You should spend less time on the forums if you can hit 60 in under a year.

Sometimes but not always, and yes. Stacks but does not multiply.

I'm not positive, but I believe the bonus experience is only for experience gained from killing mobs.

As for the pots, they do stack.

Example:
Normal Experience: 100%
Bonus Experience: 100%
25% Exp Pot: 25%
-------------------------------------
Your experience per kill will be 225% of normal (125% more than usual).

The bonus xp also applies to Overseer xp rewards and (I think) the xp (not AA) gained from completing collections.

rat ears exp is doubled for this event. potions do not work for rat ears exp

Bonus xp applies to all sources.

Potion xp applies only to kills.

It applies to some quests/tasks as well, but not all.
