All of you waiting are on uncommon and have NO idea if/when Double RP will come.
To be fair, Spiderman did say during the twitch feed on patch day that PC was getting their double RP weekend last weekend, and he knew when the double RP was coming for Xbox but his lips were sealed and he wasn't telling. So it IS coming, we just don't know exactly when. Has to be soon though if they've already got it planned out. My guess is they're waiting for more people to get to 70 to take advantage.
so pats on fire you put in your legendary artifacts into your greens and only got 40 percent of there refinement value 1.6 mill instead of doubling that and only being 900k away from legendary...you are a strange little man.
The way I see it, I can either refine as I go or wait for double rp. If I refine as I go, I'll be making steady progress, slowly increasing my stats and putting out more and more damage and what not. If I wait, I'm losing out on that progress, BUT, once double rp comes around (and it will), I'll instantly make a jump to that point where I would have been, and then double that progress.
If you imagine it as a race you'll have runner A who starts running immediately at a steady pace. Runner B takes his time, resting up, having a good meal, taking steroids.. by the time runner A is halfway to the finish line, runner B starts sprinting and runs straight to the finish, leaving runner A with a whole lot of distance to catch up on.
I'm more of a sprinter myself I understand why people would refine now, instant gratification and all that, but I personally prefer to get the most out of my rp. Besides, it's not like I really need anything past blue right now anyway, it's not like you'll suddenly be set to run t2s without a problem if all your artifact stuff is epic, which seems to be the main obstacle right now for many.
Wrong... when double RP hits, both begin their sprint. So who's ahead, A or B?
I am back to capacity with enchants, well, I am actually holding more because a day ago I added a Runic on two characters, each full of enchants. I never really consumed them all, definitely left the rares untouched. I am runner 'A' who has continued to feed his artifacts while continuing to hoard.
Instead of beginning my sprint from an uncommon, I will begin my sprint mid way through Epic.
They always do double rp with a new mod, at least if new artifacts are included, they just waiting for all the silly ppl to buy up, and why not they are a money making business after all. I wouldn't say no to MONEY!!!

Wrong? You might be back at capacity or even holding more, but that doesn't change the fact that you used a certain amount of rp of which you'll never get its double value. You'll be sprinting, but not as far as you would have otherwise. So yes, B would still get further in the end. So don't tell me I'm wrong

OK, break it down, not waiting for double RP, improving what I can now, has produced the best output of my character(s) and in return allowing me to progress further, faster and collect more resources in a shorter span of time.
Honestly, I have more than doubled (50's, 60's, 70's) my stacks of enchants since Thursday. Picked up twice as many Rare enchants this past weekend. Should have taken a screen shot.
To each their own. But in business. there is no penalty in Short Term Gain...
BTW, you made my point in your last comment... shame you're still stuck on volume and not the rolling value. You will be sprinting for a longer period of time and I will have reached my goals.
