DXP LIVE & Skilling Strike - This Week In RuneScape
We’re all about the skilling this week, with the return of Double XP LIVE and the introduction of new Proteans! The Ninjas are in on the game too, with loads of tweaks related to quality of life around skills. Time to get training folks...
Double XP LIVE Begins Friday!
Plus, time = credit with Nic the Trader!
Double XP LIVE is back – and with a brand new feature!
From May 20th-30th you’ll have a timer with 48 hours of boosted XP, which you can activate and deactivate to max your gains whenever and however you wish.
This time, though, you'll also be able to trade hours for credits! These can be spent on all sorts of useful items at Nic the Trader’s Store. It’s a great way to make the most of time you don’t intend to use! You can trade one hour of credit per day, so don't forget to log in every day to reap the benefits.
Oh, and while we’re talking skills – remember the new Fletching & Firemaking training we introduced earlier this month is a great skilling method after level 82!
For more details on how DXP Live works, including the new feature, check the blog.
Time To Train With New Proteans!
Introducing Herblore, RuneCrafting and Cooking Proteans
Stock up for your DXP skilling sesh with Time To Train! We’re introducing a new set of Proteans – the stackable skilling item that rewards XP relative to your current skill level – in a new Time to Train for Cooking, Runecrafting and Herblore!
Runecrafting's Protean Runes can be used on altars to earn Runecrafting XP. You'll want to visit the highest level altar you have access to, as XP rates are based on the altar used.
Herblore's Protean Shakes can be used anywhere you mix a potion to earn Herblore XP, while Cooking's Protean Protein can be used on fires and ranges to earn Cooking XP.
Note: these items will only be available from Treasure hunter, and cannot be gained from Protean Packs for the time being.
Time to Train begins May 19th and ends on May 25th.
