# Double EXP Weekend

Every weekend, DewataRO doubles all EXP gains server-wide — no sign-up, no NPC, it just happens.

## When It Runs

| Start                        | End                        |
| ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| Saturday 00:00 (server time) | Monday 00:00 (server time) |

The switch happens automatically on the server clock, so the boost is live the moment Saturday begins and lasts through the entire weekend.

## What Doubles

| EXP Type  | Normal Rate | Weekend Rate |
| --------- | ----------- | ------------ |
| Base EXP  | 40x         | 80x          |
| Job EXP   | 40x         | 80x          |
| Quest EXP | 40x         | 80x          |
| MVP EXP   | 40x         | 80x          |

All four EXP sources double together — regular mobs, MVPs, and quest rewards all benefit, so it's a great window to push levels, grind a job change, or clear quest chains you've been saving.

## Login Notice

If Double EXP Weekend is active when you log in, you'll get an on-screen reminder telling you it's on. A server-wide announcement also goes out when the weekend starts and again when it ends, so you'll always know exactly when normal rates resume.

## Tips

* Plan your heaviest grinding sessions for Saturday and Sunday to make the most of the 80x rate.
* MVP hunts are especially rewarding during the weekend since MVP EXP is doubled too.
* Rates return to the normal 40x automatically at Monday 00:00 — no action needed on your part.
