Urns - Double XP weekend


goalybobjr

Recommended Posts

I'm sure this has been discussed, or at least mentioned. I used the little search tool and found the main thread for the double xp weekend, but did not see a definite answer.

 

So, my question is do urns (more specifically the prayer urns) earn double xp? I read the update from jagex, and they said no double xp when using an alter. Buttttt urns aren't used on the alter, see where I'm coming from? :P

 

So if anyone has an answer to this, or a link that will better inform me, I'd appreciate it. I apologize if my searching skills suck and this information is easy to find.

Urns do give bonus xp (75 versus 62.5 xp per ash) so they may not work.

I'd say odds are urns won;t work.

Urns after all give BONUS xp.

All other items that give bonus xp don't work.

 

eg alatars, ecto, goldsmith gaunts, sc tools, sc armour, penanace horn, xp lamps etc etc

Woodcutting and fishing? Interesting choice, why not go for a more expensive skill like smithing?

 

Because goldsmith gauntlets and sc hammers don't work making it fail to do smithing on bonus xp

This.

 

It's not a smithing urn. It's a smelting urn. Furthermore, it's a smelting-except-not-gold urn.

 

That leaves making bars other than gold the only method, which is pretty bad xp.

You could just fill up 10 of each urn and teleport them away in the first 30 minutes for a nice boost in next to no time.

^If that even works.

 

Question:

RS doesn't really specify - when they're counting the time you play, it's not actually 30 minutes right?

It's 30 minutes of game ticks of doing something?

i.e. in your POH, talking to your servent/removing your furniture doesn't count towards the timer? Or do they just start counting 30 as soon as you start skilling?

If you are in-game the time counts down.

Lobby doesn't count but if you are in game it counts.

 

If you stand and talk for 10 hours u will lose all the multiplier.
