If you're member and you complete every task each day and get a third task, you can get 7h of double xp per week, if that ain't comparable to double xp idk then (this is when you're a dedicated player, but then again ppl usually didn't utilize 7h double xp per weekend)
Actually, since you get 5 extra EP for each 10th task completed, it's 31 EP per week, which results in 10h and 20 minutes of double xp.
My problem is not with the xp itself, but minigames. The main problem is brimhaven's agility arena. Wasting scrolls there for double tickets is not worth it at all. Without double ticket weekends this mini-game is unbearable. It was already dull and time-consuming, when you could do it with double, it's even worse now. Either fix it by getting more tickets per round or lower the prices on rewards. This is not an outcry to make the items more obtainable. I've obtained every since item from that reward shop, so I know, what I'm talking about.
In my opinion, this arena requires double tickets, but I would like to see double ticket weekends in general. I'm absolutely fine with the current version of double xp.
