XP weekend and training herblore


vettro

Recommended Posts

I am looking to train herblore during this xp weekend. I want to spend about 30M. What potion is a good balance between speed and cost? A faster method is more appealing to me. I have heard of energy potions and have 1500 ready to finish when the bonus xp weekend starts. Any other good potions to make that are a little faster? A high xp potion will be exponentially faster.

 

I also heard that summoning training was nerfed. That it is 1.1x the whole weekend regardless of what bonus multiplier is. Can somebody confirm this? If it is true then I guess one should wait until the multiplier is down to 1.1 before training summoning.

 

Thanks for the help.

I can't answer the herblore section of your post, but a quote from Mod Emilee on the September bonus-weekend official-forum post (QFC: 16-17-821-61539199) confirms the Summoning part:

 

Following feedback from March’s Bonus XP Weekend, the boost to Summoning XP will be limited to 10% over the course of the four days.

Your thoughts on the Summoning exception are 100% accurate. Might want to wait til the multiplier drops before doing that. As for the Herblore advice, can't say I'm experienced with that, so I'll stick to what I know :P

Super defence are nice pots but your herb level is kinda low. You could do super attacks (100 xp).

I have a similar dilemma, however these guys are correct. If you don't have around 30m worth supplies now, you won't gather them before the weekend.

PM me in game anytime

 

It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet.

 

That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying.

When is the Xp weekend? I heard that one was coming but what is the exact date?

 

There are two threads about it in the top ten in General Discussion.
