Can we get same to star legends too?
I would like to lvl up my alts.
And devs you almost must do double exp to sl because newest vanities are kinda copypasted old vanities (ed neezer hat = top hat etc.) :-)

I also posted in bugs thread but I dont think double xp is working properly. Instead of multiplying all base elixers it is adding. Example: I have 2x weekly and 4x loco at the moment and with double xp shouldnt it be 12x xp? I'm only getting 8 xp per kill which means its adding not multiplying. I know the elixers add but I remember last double xp weekend we could get up to 18x xp. Please look into this

OK, I just tested this and got additional clarification on how this works. It's a little hard to explain. So, let me correct myself here:

Say the base XP you get from an NPC is 1.

A 4x multiplier will multiply you base by 4: 1 base XP + 3 additional XP, for a total of 4 XP.
A 2x multiplier will multiply your base by 2: 1 base XP + 1 additional XP, for a total of 2 XP.

So, now let's look at how these work together.
A 4x multiplier plus a 2x multiplier will add the benefits of both of these elixir to you base XP: 1 base XP + 3 additional XP + 1 additional XP, for a total of 5 XP.

Now, let's double that for double XP weekend: (1 base XP + 3 additional XP + 1 additional XP) times 2, for a total of 10 XP.

My test validated that double XP is yielding the results described above:
1 kill with no elixir: 2 XP
1 kill with 2x week-long elixir: 4-5 XP
1 kill with 2x week-long elixir and 4x thrasher: 10-11 XP

I don't think I described this functionality properly in the past. Sorry about that!
