Weekend double XP

andy75

So if I purchase the XP booster will I get 4x xp for kills?

This question comes up every time the event happens, and the answer remains yes (unless NG nerfed made it work as intended like the removal of scrapping survivors on the doubler giving double XP)

Sooooooo. To clarify bc there's never enough clarification around here, will the weekend event apply to xp from scrapping survivors or is this nerfed the same as the xp booster without notice?@Teeceezy

Thanks @jbuoy

I figured that was the case just wanted to be sure.

Only kills are doubled. If you buy a booster kills will be quadruple.

I'm not currently buying boosters or bundles for obvious reasons,so I kinda like this events timing!

This is correct (negating any potential Nerfing)

@andy75 - I re-read my post, and it appears to me that it may have come across a bit snarky on my part. I did not intend for that to be directed at you, but am feeling a bit snarky in general about the update. Simultaneously increasing the required resources for upgrades to buildings and survivors significantly while reducing the reward/payout structure to get these resources has left me feeling a little frustrated. I now have to grind for several months to get back to where I was gameplay wise prior to the update, without any sense of advancement.

@jbuoy think many feel the same as you

Yeah, with the Walker Buff and Challenges starting higher (and lack of new Story content), it seems we will be spending all this time leveling ourselves up to get to the same point we were pre-update. People should be able to get far MORE stars at Level 21/24-gear, not the same! The Walker Buff is a big issue, as is the Challenge structure change...

No worries @jbuoy I think 99% of us are in the same boat. I still need another 5 million to upgrade my training grounds to max then start grinding on workshop.

How about the fact that on scavenge missions, they cut the xp reward in half so that when it doubles, you're getting the same amount of xp as you were without the 2x multiplier. Waiting on a response from support about it now.

I was getting 3100xp on normal from scavenge before purchasing 2x XP. With 2x, I still get 3100xp. The reward is still listed as 3100, but I'm only getting 1550,then they double that, giving the original 3100xp reward I WAS getting. Smh.

With a weekend event called "double XP from kills" they couldn't be any more clear and really didnt need any more clarity.
