As the title says, can i avoid the double XP next weekend while playing or do i need to go play another game that weekend ?
No trolling here, i really want to know because i dislike double xp a lot and would like to decide what im going to play next weekend. ty.

Would love to have a Toggle Double XP option, so i can play on Double XP events. TY.

. . . My suggestion: play a character you want to level and not one you don't.

But if your one that likes to take their time and explore maps entirely while leveling at your own pace, I could see where they would need an opt-out for this.
I still do have a couple lower levels that I have no need to increase XP at the double this weekend provides. I want them to remain lowbies.
My question, in L 60 zones, since the Mod 3 Level 60 XP tally doesn't start until May 13, will the L 60 players in the L 60 zones get any perks?
Perks like increased drops of "sparks" "swords"or "scripts," etc. Perks like reducing the time to rerun quests more than once a day while in zone, etc.
Anything?

Probably because you already level way too fast in NW, and you outgrow content (i've been consistently doing content 4-6 levels below my own while leveling), so there's no challenge anymore...
then you will have a bad time

And if you play together you play together, so both have still the same level, with and without double xp.
If you see it in a logical way, there is no problem, only peoples (again *sigh*)
OR leveling out skirmish lvl band.
OR leveling out of content/reward band.
OR outpacing guild mates for dungeon frame.
OR...
OR...
I'm sure there are some I've forgotten.
This isn't WoW, the PvP/twink problem isn't so nearly evident or a problem, in this game anyone can get geared top notch for their lvl frame, there isn't such twink only drops as in that other stupid game.
. . . The logic here is that they are "forced" to play those characters together, else they would out-level each other. Which I stated in the very first sentence of my post: "I have friends that have characters that they only play when they're together because otherwise, they'd out-level each other in a heart-beat."
. . . If they had the choice to disable XP gain, they would be free to do various things on those characters without their friend(s). I used to have one such character, but couldn't stand it sitting around doing nothing and eventually gave in to leveling her.

Does not compute!
Then play with a 60 level character and you don't get XP!
I don't think this is an uncommon problem. I had it too.
It's actually a common problem when you want to play with friends, but also have some extra time to do minor stuff (invoke, gather resources, level companions etc.) that doesn't make you ahead in terms of campaign/storyline but might prevent you from doing some content (skirmishes, pug dungeons etc) because you outlevel it.
There are a lot of twinkers in this game too
The "perk" is your companions also benefit from dbl xp, so this is a great chance to level companions.
Otherwise, just play your 60s for fun, as you would usually do on the weekend.
. . . About my "patience" however, and I'm not even going to go into my real life issues that have honed patience upon me, in game details though; For me, whether we get such a toggle or not will not hinder my play. I have 15 characters of level ranges from 30 to 60 as well as 8 character slots open yet, I think. I haven't actually "leveled" a character in months, letting three and soon four get to 60 starting at level 11 all the way to 60 on prayers and leadership. I actually have an enormous amount of patience. I am an extreme alt-o-holic, XP toggles do not impact my playstyle one bit. I've been playing MMOs since 1997 and stayed with UO for almost 10 years, if you've done that, I'd bargain you'd have patience.

I want the ADs from invoking regularly, and the chance to get coal wards from the 7-box. I want the ADs and other rewards from leadership. However, I want to level my characters through play, not through invoking and leadership.
Yeah I do think it is dumb that leadership grants XP. No other profession does that.
Swtor does this too, and I always have to go play something else till it's over..
..sigh
Some sort of 'xp toggle off/or slower' for this game and for swtor's would be awesome,
but I don't see them or this company doing that.
because like I said if you had read,
if you overlevel in certain games due to double xp,
you can become too strong and the area become boring and/or
you end up missing content you would normally have access to.
For anyone who likes to take the time in pve and slowly enjoy the games content, without rushing, this is bad.
That is why people like me want to make it optional, which wouldn't effect people, like you, who actually like it.
for reasons I stated above, and that I shouldn't need to repeat.
You may like it, but not everyone does,
and I don't see why having it as an optional thing instead of mandatory, is so horrible for everyone else.
