This Week In RuneScape: Double XP LIVE

This Week In RuneScape: Double XP LIVE

We’ll be busy training our skills this week, as it’s the return of Double XP: LIVE! Make sure you get involved – and reap extra benefits in War’s Reckoning. Read on for all the details…

Double XP: LIVE
It's time to train for double the gain!

Attention skillers! Double XP: LIVE lands on Friday, February 18th at 12:00 Game Time. This is your chance to enjoy 48 hours of Double XP on any skill. Use your time over 10 days, and pause the timer whenever you like!

Remember, we’ve got new Slayer Creatures arriving at the end of the month and you’ll need 95/105/115 Slayer to tackle them, so this is the perfect moment to get training. Plus, you’ll go even further if you skill in combination with War’s Reckoning – more on that below.

Oh, and do you need any Proteans or other skilling items? Look out for our 'Time to Train' Treasure Hunter promotion, which will be back from the 17th!


Event: War's Reckoning
Make the most of War's buffs

War’s Reckoning is here, and you’ll have noticed that it runs until February 28th, which is… hmm… gosh, would you look at that… all through the 10 days of Double XP LIVE!

Well you know what they say, there’s no such thing as a coincidence – and sure enough there are some neat synergies between the two events. Enjoy double Slayer and Reaper Points, and benefit from War’s extra special Safe Deaths – like Free Deaths but even better, because you respawn with your items intact!

Please note that Safe Deaths are not available for Hardcore Ironmen or F2P and as mentioned last week the +50% Slayer XP from tasks will be disabled during Double XP LIVE.
