Default How long is Exp bonus in place?

I haven't even actually started, and I will be in a foreign country unable to access EQ for a month.

I don't really want to play if there isn't an exp bonus but I noticed some people whining about it and was wondering if its permanent or temporary.

Heard theres been bonus xp rate most of the life of red. I think its meant to counterbalance the complications that come with progression on a pvp server. Also likely to continue stimulating new population.

It wouldn't make sense to remove the xp bonus on red, at least not entirely. Group xp is a little fast, but the difference in the atmosphere from the last time I tried red over a year ago is night and day difference. Its almost like old EQ where people actually have a reason to work together rather than senselessly murdering every person in range.

Oh so there is no official statement regarding it and is regarded as indefinite? Hmm, thanks for the replies [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

never assume exp bonuses here are indefinite, they have a bad habit of disappearing with little notice or explanation lol

Yeah, its done quietly and then they throw their hands in the air and say "yeeahhh we did that".

Red not usually allowed to thrive so I'm sure a nerf will hit at some point [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Do you even play on red or do you just have a habit of trying to contribute to red threads despite not playing here?
