2x Quest Rewards

Hypothetically speaking, what if 2x events introduced 2x quest rewards.

You can get...
-2x Uncanny Crystals from 99 key quest
-2x Basic Badge from Warsong/Lunar
-2x BH rewards too?
-2x EXP/SP/Coins from quests

Would something like this be welcomed, or shunned away? Are there any quests out there that could be exploited easily? There probably is, but I can't think of any off the top of my head. Would the player base only grow to be more spoiled?

Reason why I made this thread, mainly, was due to running Warsong during 2x and seeing how Basic Badges are only quest related, only getting 1 per Vile boss, as well as it being a material need.

I would like to hear your opinions on this.

And for the love of all that is love....I don't really want this moved to the Suggestion Forums, since my original intent of this thread wasn't to be made as a suggestion, just a thought...as well as more exposure here, and I want an actual discussion.

    I'd welcome it. Would break the monotony of what people do on 2x.

    2x the emblems in warsong would be great.
    People might be more inclined to do things like Delta for the quest based exp and tome frags too.
    2x the BH.......meh, 2x the chips is still chips b:shutup

    This would better if 2x was limited to select weekends or short periods. Month longs (like what we'll likely get in Sept) are bad enough without doubled quest rewards too.

    I recently don't like this idea for EVERY quest. It would just make things worse for some things. Now if there was a 2x reward for the smaller quests that people shun in favor of instances, I'd be all for that. The world map stuff needs some real attention.

    Lol, I could see some people popping tons of Brainpower Orbs and Orbs of Cultivation for that.

    coin xp and spirt rewards from quests yes, across the board.

    item quest reward could use some tweaking, but 2x across the board would be a terrible idea.
    and since it would take actual work and combing through all the quests, it will never happen

    I see, so there are quite a bit of quests out there that can be unfair or exploited easily. Hypothetically speaking, maybe they can create a list of quests that aren't affected.

    There's various reasons for that.

    For one, the amount of coins you get is not a constant but rather a range in the form of a(+-)b. For two, if you're in a squad, then all the coin is being split evenly between all members.

    I think the coin drops are just fine for regular mobs if you're doing solo. From grinding, generally a bit more than 10% of the coins I get is from the coin drops, with the rest being DQs, gear, pots, mats.

    The way you intended it, I would agree it would be a nice change from 2x drops. But as the first few posts already showed, there are way to many that just try to find "abusive" uses of any event/feature/idea.

    A few days of 2x bh reward, 2x morai quest rewards, 99keys (even though 2 + 1/6th rap > 10 cannies, so maybe not even worth it to include) and all non-cycle quests would be a nice change from the 2x that makes RT and Arrivals sooooo laggy.

    Well in 2x drop nirvy already drop more and the economy go down, people already do 99keys in 2x for more drops, too much won't be a good idea.

    For the rest i think that's would be too much complicated for them to do it, they can't remove a chest from a mountain in more than 4 months so i don't imagine them changing all rewards x2.

    People questing normally are low level and the exp from the quest is good + the exp x2 from killing the mobs from quest is good.
